There’s nothing more enduring than doing exercises that you just ain’t comfortable doing. They hijack your fitness goals like there’s tomorrow, because you just can’t get the momentum up to get into the swing of things, when you find your routine tedious.
One of the philosophies that I don’t agree is the “no pain – gain” one that’s splattered all over the muscle building arena. If you ain’t feeling the burn, you ain’t gaining results.
That kinda thinking.
In my experience, any strength building workouts I done in my early days, I’ve felt a strain. Not a burn. From the very first lift, there was pain there. In fact, in my very first lifting session, I spent the rest of the week, walking about like a monkey, with my arms so far out, that I felt like a hubba bubba sumo wrestler, because my arms were THAT sore.
Did it result in bulk? Hell no, because I did it all wrong.
I’d read all the material thinking that to get things the way I wanted, I had to be in pain. That didn’t work out so well.
I went in hard at it, lifting too heavy a resistance, and instead of working my muscles, the only result I got was straining them.
Now bringing it to the point of what that experience has to do with cellulite… it’s about the resistance you use in your exercise.
Simple works best. Exercises you can do, without straining your body.
After doing myself an injury, before I got back on the horse and cart, I switched the resistance to work with only my body weight to get started. Push ups, pull ups, chin ups etc.
The same thing style of training can be used by women to eradicate cellulite.
To get a trimmer butt, hips, thighs and legs, it’s strength training that does that. Packing on some lean muscle to help the body burn the fat.
By saying that, don’t fall prey to the mistakes I made, with muscle building on the upper body. Going in hardcore and killing the muscle before you get a chance to see results.
Resistance training works, for sure, but only when you do it with progression. If your body ain’t used to it, don’t surprise it suddenly.
Squats are simple, yet extremely effective for the upper legs, hips, and thighs.
Stretching your hands out in front of you to help maintain balance, then gently lowering your body to a sitting position, but not actually bringing yourself to rest on the chair. The squatting position should be as though as you’re sitting on an imaginary chair.
The slow movements of your upper legs get worked with that one. The same thing can happen when you’re doing lunges. Starting in an upright position, pushing one leg forward while keeping your back straight. Pushing your leg all the way forward, until your knee is reaches the point where it’s in line with your foot. Typically associated with a warm up stretching routine. For banishing cellulite, it’s one of the simplest effective exercises that tone the upper legs, when you do the lunges in sets of 10.
When you see anywhere that to get rid of cellulite you need to be building muscle, don’t take that to mean that you need to use resistance training equipment, pegging the machine to 10KG weights, attempting leg presses or the likes. You can build muscle, and tone your mid region with workouts that don’t require any resistance equipment at all.
That’s the beauty of simplicity. Minimizing risk, with maximum results.
I am kidding of course. As you’ll see up on the top left there, I’m an author over on EzineArticles.com. From time to time, they try to tell their authors how to write. (
For optimum health, it’s always diet, diet and more freaking diet stuff you hear about. All geared towards people pleasing to get the thin thighs, cellulite free, and a trimmer tummy to boot.
You have to monitor calorie intake, balance your workouts to ensure your burning more calories than you’re consuming, and probably passing up on a deliciously succulent steak dinner, to swap it out for a potato salad.
The key to good nutrition is variety. The more the merrier, provided you’re consuming plenty of good fats, versus the bad fats.
For those of you in the US, you’re only a couple of days away from the start of the annual frenzy that is Thanksgiving day. An annual event that gives way to the hustle, bustle and event planning that leads up to the celebrations of an another year finalised.
That is what you need to be prepared for. Giving way to the challenges you’re about to have put on your daily activities, to squeeze more tasks into your day, than you’ve ever had to contend with all year round.
I find that as I work down the list, it’s a motivational push to get to that last task and then it’s wind down for the night. For me, there’s nothing quite as gratifying as knowing I got everything done that I planned to do ahead of time. But at the same time, when that list isn’t completed, it’s quite disheartening to say the least, knowing that something’s been “put off ‘til tomorrow.
Nutrition is one of those mythical subjects where there’s black, white and grey areas. Of all the diets that’s around, there’s not one that’s universally agreed on to be the top of any dieters best nutrition plan for life.
The bottom line is that everyone has to eat. The trick is to throw the diet shenanigans out the window, and switch to a mindset of nutrition control.
Ha, this one is funny, but it’s so true. You’ve probably done this a thousand times. I know I’m guilty of it. Going out to a restaurant where the silence is so strenuous, when you just know the second you let rip, you’re going to be the Katy Perry of the crowd with your rear end singing to the tune of “Roar.” (BRILL TUNE!)

If you’re going to be going to a theatre, where you want to be in your best dress, you don’t really want to be covering all. You want to show some skin and stand out in the ballroom. Just like I wouldn’t dream of a beach day in a pair of Speedo’s. (Stomach churn – yuk!)
