How To Get Rid Of Cellulite: 5 Simple Tips

First of all, you cannot completely get rid of cellulite. I don't say that to discourage you but rather to encourage you. The reason being that all women have it, even supermodels! That's right, even the woman who makes Supermodels out of mere mortals, Tyra Banks has admitted to having cellulite.However don't fret. Here are 5 Simple Tips you can use to smoothe it out.Simple Tip #1: By working out. Your best bet is to combine cardio training with strength training to hit it with a double whammy. Running and stair climbing should be a big part of your cardio for targeting cellulite. As far as the strength training, you want to build muscle in the areas that are most likely going to be affected, such as the butt, the thighs, and the belly. Squats, leg curls, sit-ups, and reverse sit-ups are your very best bet. Simple Tip #2: You must drink plenty water! About 1 - 2 litres a day to flush out toxins that can cause cellulite. Fat cells surround toxins as a way of protecting your body. One way to lose the fat cells that surround the toxins is to lose the toxins of course. Also, staying hydrated is important to the appearance of the skin, keeps the muscles fuller, and of course flushes the system. Simple Tip #3: Body brushing helps. It's very simple. The best place to do this is in the shower since you're already naked anyways.You want to brush in circular movements upwards towards the heart. This promotes circulation and blood flow, plus a detoxifying affect since it stimulates the lymph system. Simple Tip #4: Eat plenty of green vegetables such as broccoli, which is great for de-toxing. 



              Obviously, entire books can and have been written about diet so I can't go through it all here, but the best diet for cellulite and fat reduction is one made up mostly of vegetable, particularly raw ones. Okay, Tip 5 is not soooo simple. Not so Simple Tip #5: After trying exercise and a good diet without positive results in losing cellulite dimples, the last resort is through lipsosuction. There are some creams with caffeine in them that may mask the cellulite appearance, but surgery is usually the last resort effort. 


           The downfall being that the cost is usually at least $5000 on up. Bonus Tip#6: Become happy with yourself the way that you are. Read self-help books, or see a therapist. There's no better feeling than being happy with yourself. Go grab the great book "Psycho Cybernetics" and apply what you learn to developing killer self-confidence. Cellulite may just be the least of your problems on the grand scale.
