first, i too am one who have this same problem. i have muscular thighs and i wanted to lose it.
i used to be a track sprinter during my schooling days. so naturally i had big thighs. and if you ask me, its harder to lose muscle healthily than to gain them. so please give this thread some respect.
i did my own research. google doesnt really come up with much results. some told me to totally stop all leg activities and naturally muscle will breakdown if its not used. sounds plausible. my arms grew smaller during exam days. but it did not work. i found normal everyday walking was enough to keep the muscle there (and more fat during exams.. haha!)
so yes. low intensity training does help. but i doubt it does much to reduce thigh muscle, but rather burn the remaining fat and maybe tone the muscle up (and makes it look smaller)
i've since gone long distance (completed my marathon last year) and i am also an avid road cyclist. (normal routine - putrajaya 40km, or weekend rides of 160km)
seems to work for me having smaller thighs than before. but within 2-3 weeks of not exercising, it'd prolly come back, unless you are careful with your diet
