The Importance of Cellulite Reduction Exercise

Anyone who is worried about cellulite and done some research, either online or in libraries, will have come across all kind of miracle cures that promise cellulite reduction with no effort at all. What these “solutions” offer is usually nothing more than a short term cosmetic loss of fat which soon returns. The only way to really get rid of cellulite is by diet and cellulite reduction exercise. While any form of exercise burns up calories and thus reduces cellulite, there are some cellulite reduction exercises that target specific areas of your body where cellulite tends to collect and works to burn it off. Remember that to really get rid of cellulite and keep it off, you have to sweat it out. The more you exercise, the more calories (fat/cellulite) you burn. It’s as simple as that.

If you go to a gym, the instructors there will be able to advise you on what kinds of cellulite reduction exercise you should do to target the cellulite affected parts of your body.

You could invest in a cellulite reduction machine if you want. But before you spend all that money, here are some simple things you can do to get started.

A regime of light weight training three times a week is a great cellulite reduction exercise. The weights burn off cellulite and add to you muscle mass. He more muscles mass you have, the more calories you burn, even when not exercising. Leg curls will burn the cellulite off the back of your legs. Lunges and squats will take the cellulite off the thighs and midriff.

Besides the weight training, you will also need to do some aerobic cellulite reduction exercise. Aerobics are great for burning up fat.

Start slow and work your ay up in terms of intensity and duration. And do not expect miracles. The cellulite will reduce; but it won’t happen overnight, even with the most targeted of cellulite reduction exercise.
