Identify Your Target Areas

Before you start thinking about which specific cellulite exercises you should do, you need to identify your target areas. The good news is that it’s super easy to identify them. A target area is simply any area of your skin’s surface where you can clearly see cellulite. Some common target areas are the buttocks, the arms and the legs. The belly is also a common area.

Cardio Helps With Overall Fat Loss

Cardiovascular exercises can be very good for removing cellulite. In fact, they can be great for your general health. However, they’re only going to remove cellulite if you do the right sort of exercise for your target area or if excess body fat is contributing to your cellulite problem.

Riding a stationary bike will mostly only work out your buttocks and your legs. That’s quite fine, if your cellulite is in those areas. If it’s on your arms, however, you might want to consider swimming. As a matter of fact, you’ll get a good full body workout by swimming, if you can stand the thought of wearing a bathing suit before the cellulite is gone.

Yoga Can Help Indirectly

There are people who claim that activities such as yoga and Pilates can get rid of cellulite in a flash. There is some truth to it, but not as much as you might think. Yoga can increase your circulation, which can help to get rid of unwanted toxins. However, yoga or Pilates should be one component of several in your cellulite removal plan. They shouldn’t make up your entire plan.

Specific Exercises To Reduce Cellulite

There are many specific exercises for cellulite that you can do easily in your own home. For example, lifting weights using the back of your legs is known as a leg curl and that can target your buttocks and hamstrings.

Sit-ups, on the other hand, are more for toning your belly region. However, they’re also great for just generally getting into better shape. The other thing that is wonderful about them is that you don’t need to be in any specific place or use any weights or equipment to do them. There great when you want to squeeze in your workout “on the fly” when needed.

If you’re like many people, though, your cellulite area could be your arms. There’s nothing quite as embarrassing as feeling like you have “bat wings” or cottage cheese showing every time you put on a sleeveless dress or a short-sleeved shirt. So, if you want to fight that particular cellulite issue, try doing some triceps presses.

To do a triceps press, just get down on the ground flat on your back. Then bend your knees and lift your buttocks up. Meanwhile, hold yourself up by using your arms behind you. At that point, you should look a bit like you are doing a “crab walk”. As you bend and straighten your arms, you will work out your triceps muscles. Triceps presses are great exercises to reduce cellulite, especially on the arms.

Best Cellulite Exercises for Easy Cellulite Reduction
By Joey Atlas, The Cellulite Reduction Report

It’s no secret. Cellulite reduction is a common wish amongst women of all ages, regardless of body weight or body fat. Women spend billions of dollars on cellulite treatments and cellulite creams every year, usually with little or no lasting results. There are tons of articles out there giving you ‘the answers’. (And I don’t mean the ‘advertorials’ that are trying to sell you anti cellulite cream, lotion or pills.) The truth is, your best weapons in your battle against unwelcome cellulite and the burning question ‘how to get rid of cellulite’?, are a smart nutritional routine and a consistent, properly structured home workout program consisting of targeted anti-cellulite exercises.

Anti cellulite nutrition focuses on minimally processed, high nutrient content foods. Salads, fruits, vegetables, lean proteins such as fish, turkey, beans and eggs are at the top of the list for foods that promote cellulite reduction.

As for the properly structured cellulite exercise workout program, I’ve put together a butt, hip and thigh routine which you can incorporate into your current workouts if you have one. This routine specifically targets the areas where cellulite tends to ‘hang out’.

Bear in mind, I’ve been training people since the late eighties. Speaking strictly from experience, I can tell you that the following routine is responsible for helping many women dramatically change the appearance of their cellulite areas.

- Lying on your side, do 10 reps of each anti cellulite exercise:

1) Bring both knees forward so your hips are at a 90 degree angle. Then straighten your top leg out in front of you, still keeping 90 degrees at the hip. Lift the top leg slowly about three feet off the ground & down.

2) Straighten both legs so your body is in a straight line. Tilt the hips forward slightly. Lift the top leg about three feet off the ground & down.

3) Repeat on the other side.

- On the elbows and knees, do 10 reps of each anti cellulite exercise:

1) Extend one leg straight back with your toe on the ground. Lift that leg up toward the ceiling & down. Then switch legs.

2) Lift your knee off the floor. Extend that same heel back and up so your leg is pointing toward the ceiling & then bring the knee back into you. Then switch legs.

- Standing up, do 10 reps of each anti cellulite exercise:

1) Start with your feet together. Step out in front in to a lunge position. Touch the ground with opposite hand. Come back up & step back to the starting position. Then switch legs.

2) Put one foot up on a step (12 – 18 inches high). Slowly step up and down with the other foot. Then switch legs.

If this routine is easy try going through it twice. If you still need more of a challenge, increase the reps to 15 or 20 per set. Do this anti cellulite exercise program two to three times per week and you’ll soon realize that you have found a true cellulite treatment that will also save you a lot of money that you would be spending on cellulite treatments, creams and lotions that never work. Remember, ‘it’s all in the exercises’.
