Cellulite

Yup that unsightly cottage cheese that lives under your skin. There are A LOT of things out there that say they will get rid of cellulite. I don't believe most of them. One thing I will say that I've found helps make your skin smoother is stimulating the skin. If you think about your cellulite and where it is, is that an area of your body that doesn't get much action? I know mine is. Its on the side of my thigh going toward the back of my leg.

I've read up on this a little because I didn't really know that body brushing was the thing it is. Apparently what you want to do is dry brush before you get in the shower. Brushing upward.
This promotes circulation which gets blood flowing to your skin to remove toxins that have built up there. Your skin should feel smoother and the appearance of cellulite should go down. I know that mine shows the most when I sit cross legged. It's very unsightly but with doing the brushing it helps my skin feel smoother. According to one of the blogs I read it takes about 5 months for serious cellulite to go away. Happy brushing!

Bikini Season

Oh yes I know the temperature here just started teasing us by hitting the 70s and you're either hoping they canceled bikini season this year. If not you're already starting to think about it. I  recommend thinking about it if you don't want to wear a miu miu all summer.
I've been thinking about it since I'm going to Vegas in June and I realized I needed a little help toning up because it isn't just bikini season, it's Vegas pool bikini season.

For this I'm featuring another blogger, LifePlusFitness.COM and Michelle Freeman. She runs a fantastic fitness blog. I found this workout on it and wanted to share it with all of you.
It's called Brazilian Butt Workout. It's the BEST butt workout I've ever done. I noticed it toning my rear the day after I did it. I'm telling you, add this workout into rotation or do it for awhile and your tush should pass the pencil test (if you can hold a pencil under your bum while standing you fail the test).
