5 most effective exercises to fight cellulite

Cellulite is a normal fat under the skin that looks like dents or pits. Wrinkling is caused when fat presses on the connective tissue, causing the skin acquires a characteristic "cheesy" or appearance of "orange peel".





It is believed that up to 90 percent of women and 10% of men at some point in life may face cellulite. In women, it occurs most often before menopause.

Hormonal changes at this time, particularly the decline in estrogen levels may coincide with changes in blood flow and a decrease in collagen production.

Increasing the number of fat cells (and their size) in combination with a thinner layer of collagen can promote the appearance of tubercles on the thighs, buttocks, stomach and even knees.

But for cellulite all ages are equal. It can even occur in adolescence and are able to affect both thin and overweight people.

Technically, it's not dangerous – well, nothing, but for some people it can be aesthetically unappealing.

The beauty industry has made a fortune selling creams, lotions and potions, laser treatment and other types of "healing" from this aesthetic problem, but the fight against cellulite requires a more substantial approach, including physical exercise.





Exercises to combat cellulite1. Squats with legs wide apart

Usually you put your feet shoulder width apart, toes forward. BUT for this exercise, stand with your feet slightly wider that the socks were deployed to the walls: the left toe to the left wall, the right toe to the right wall. Body position and technique — as in normal squats.
But when you get up to the standing position, squeeze the inner thighs. Try to make the movement of the buttocks and slightly inside to bring the pelvis up in order to work inner and outer thighs.

Stand with your feet hip width apart, hold the ball over your head. Take the hips back and down, together with the upper part of the body. Dip the ball at shoulder level in front of him.
Although you are careful to keep the ball in front of him, try to keep knees behind toes and chest elevated. Exhale, return to standing position and again lift the ball over your head.

3. The bridge

Lie on your back, arms down at sides, bend legs at the knees. Leaning on your heels, raise your hips up toward the ceiling.
Upper back and shoulder blades should be pinned to the Mat or to the floor. Descend back down and repeat the movement. To intensify the exercise, raise one leg!

4. Climber

Starting position – standing. Bend over, putting his hands on the ground and spread your legs to the plate. Now pull your right leg closer to his right hand as a very deep lunge. Return the leg back and repeat with the left leg.
Now take your right knee to the side and try to reach the right shoulder. By doing this movement on each side, return feet back and stand up, returning to the starting position.

5. Leg raises to the side with an elastic band

Take the elastic band and lie on your right side. Legs straight. Wrap the band around the ankle. You lie on right side with right foot, left foot top right. Drawing on his right forearm, raise your upper body.
Keeping the legs straight, raise your right leg as high as you can. Be careful not to bend the knees. Lower your leg to the starting position. Lift as many times as you can within 30 seconds.
Go to the left side and complete as many side leg lifts with the tape as you can for 30 seconds.

Active lifestyle and proper nutrition will help to prevent cellulite

Doctor of osteopathic medicine, Dr. Lionel Bissoon, author of "the cellulite Cure", believes that cellulite is the problem is relatively modern, which began in the late 70-ies, partly because women began to lead a much more sedentary lifestyle. In an interview with "Scientific America", he said:"I've traveled in developing countries and photographing local women. When I photographed these women (who have little or no cellulite), you can see what they are doing, and what they eat.
They eat all natural foods, and getting out of bed, constantly moving. They wash clothes in the river.

Water (in industrialized countries) means that you need to get up and go to the fridge or faucet. Women in developing countries go to the river and returned with a burden".

10,000 steps a day is one of the strategies of an active lifestyle, especially if you lead a sedentary, office life. This is a basic requirement for optimum health, the same as drinking enough water every day.

The third variable of cellulite: linen?Bisson believes that a change of underwear models is also connected with the growth of cellulite in developed countries. Thick stretch fabric on the back surface of the body damages the blood circulation and the cellulite often appears where wear elastic underwear. Wearing more casual underwear or panties "Thong" can be one of the most important and available preventive strategies. In an interview with the magazine "Scientific America", he explains "To 1970-80 years, when I started to change diet and activity and underwear, cellulite problem arose.In 20-ies women wore long skirts and the underwear was loose almost like pajamas. Cellulite always occurs where wear elastic underwear, aliprosessi invisible line where the cellulite is, you will see a line of panties. I tell people: if you can't afford the treatment, then the most important preventative tool — to change the style of underwear — wearing models "Tong".

One of the most recognized benefits of grapefruit essential oil and other citrus oils is their positive effect on the lymphatic system, which plays a role in the mechanism of detoxification of the body.
