Cellulite – A womens issue

July 27, 2010 by health1on1

Some women are afraid of this word: cellulite. No matter if you are a thin or not cellulite can affect your appearance. Most people don’t know this and think that only fat or overweight people have cellulite.

Having cellulite makes you feel fat. Men suffer from cellulite related problems too but not as much as women do. Over 80% of women around the world have cellulite (different stages: from unnoticeable to an ugly skin condition). Your lifestyle, diet, age, all these play a role in cellulite development. Cellulite is basically nothing more than the brake down of the cells located below the surface of the skin.

Treating cellulite is no easy thing though. There are patches, shoes, exercise, diet, shorts and other crazy solutions out there that promise to reduce or even eliminate cellulite completely. Cellulite or orange peel as some people call it can appear almost anywhere on your body. It is lumpy and looks almost as the skin of an orange. Ugly.

There are four stages of cellulite. Most people don’t notice cellulite signs until the final stage. If you worried what other people might think or say about your cellulite problem than stop worrying and remember. Eighty percent of all women and over twenty percent of all men have this condition.

Exercises to get rid of cellulite

July 5, 2010 by health1on1

Can I get rid of cellulite by doing exercise?
The answer is yes. Yes, you can if you really want to. If you plan to get rid of it then exercise is a must. But before we get more into this let’s see what exactly cellulite is.

The orange peel skin and that lumpiness appearance of cellulite is caused by fat surplus that distort the connective tissues and push them deep beneath your skin. It doesn’t matter if you’re fat or slim, thin people can also have cellulite. This happens because of how cellulite forms. The connective and fat tissue form in the same way for all of us. Getting rid of cellulite is connected to loosing fat. First you need to loose fat and then you will get rid of your cellulite by toning your muscles. With exercise you will also tighten your skin.

Exercises that help you get rid of cellulite
As I explained above you can get rid of cellulite naturally with exercise. You should have an exercise routine more focused on toning muscle and burning fat if you want to really reduce the appearance of cellulite. Doing these exercises regularly will smooth and also tighten the areas where cellulite is.

Loosing body fat from an isolated region of your body requires a full body workout. You might be tented to think otherwise. It’s a common mistake to think that isolated workout done on a specific region of your body will help loose fat faster in that region.

Always begin your workout by doing some stretching. Then do aerobic (cycling, jogging, walking, swimming, or others) and strength training (lift weights, or do some resistance training). Remember: do a full body workout and then do some extra workout on the zone where the cellulite is. Do the exercises as part of a 30 minute routine which you repeat 3 times a week. For added effect and to avoid getting used to the routine mix up your exercises a little.

Faster Cellulite Removal

Exercise might not be enough though. Always combine it with a healthy and balanced diet. Don’t exagerate with it though. Don’t eat just certain types of food that you’ve heard will help get rid off cellulite. Don’t starve yourself either. Make sure you have a balanced diet.

Go to the farmacy and buy anti cellulite lotions, creams or gels. Anti cellulite creams supply the nutrients your body needs in order to help reduce fat cells below the skin surface and create a smoother and firmer skin. Personally I like to apply my anti cellulite cream right after a morning shower, before bed or after my work-out routine.

Lose body fat without mental stress

July 1, 2010 by health1on1

Accumulation of body fat results in high blood pressure, joint pains, arthritis and others. Body fat can also lead to obesity. Always know what you eat and don’t exaggerate. Elaborate meals and little or no exercise makes us more vulnerable to gaining more body fat.

On the other hand irregular eating and snacking combined with physical exercise will help you loose the accumulated fat. You don’t need to try any of the programs you see on TV, loosing weight is just around the corner. Drink lots of water, do plenty of exercise and have balanced meals. Stay away from weight loss products like pills, or suppressants for your appetite because in the long run they do more good than bad.

In our generation machines do most of the physical works. But in the midst of all these, you can still be slim and attractive, live healthy and feel good about yourself if you take care to vary the quantity of food you eat at different meals and space them irregularly.
