Try step ups.. alternating each leg.
You can use any block for this or the bottom step at the foot of your stairs is really good.
Also good for the bottom.Give it ago...

I forgot to add this in the question: I need it to work fast!
Does this technique work fast?

It's like anything llili, the more you do the better the effect.

There are several ways that you can do this, if you wear trousers during the day ,maybe at work, you can buy small weights that attach around your ankles, which means your exercising throughout the day.

You can probably get them in any sports shop, or where they sale fitness equipment.

Also there is a step machine that basically does the same job as the stairs, the only difference is ,there's probably a bit more work involved and you can do it whilst your watching t.v or similar, you could also cyle every where or have one in your home, again cycle whilst watching your favourite movie etc...

Running/jogging/walking/swimming/Squats/leg-presses/jumpin squats etc..

Think about anything that involves using your legs and go do it till you can't walk-
