HOW STARS DO IT, featured in LifeStyle Weekly,

  Jessica Alba – says, “The biggest change in my body came when I stopped eating processed food. I don’t eat fast food or anything that that’s packaged or loaded with salt and preservatives”.

 Eva Longoria Parker – “ I always get a good Bikini Wax, and I always spray – tan before I go to the beach. It’s really key because it acts as a sunblock, and you look better in a bikini when you’re already tan.

 BOOST YOUR BUTT-

Here is a simple but great exercise you can do at home, office or almost anywhere that will help shape and lift your backside.

“Want your exit to be as grand as your entrance? For firmer, shapelier buttocks, “ resistance training is the best way to get rid of fat, says Jackie Warner, author of This is Why You’re Fat ( and how to Get Thin Forever) “It’s better than dieting alone or even dieting and doing aerobic exercise. “To target troublesome glutes, Warner suggest these exercises three times per week . Perform three sets of 15 reps”.

DUMBBELL FRONT SQUATS –

STEP 1            Stand with your feet hip width apart, your knees slightly bent and your toes facing forward. Hold dumbbells in front of your chest.

STEP 2            Bend at the knees and lower your body as if you going to sit in a chair. Straightening your legs to return to the starting position, pressing up from your heels.

 BACK BRIDGES-

STEP 1            Lie on an exercise mat with your knees bent and your arms out to the sides.

 STEP 2            Press feet into the floor, contract your buttocks and abs, and raise your hips until your body forms a diagonal. Squeezing glutes throughout, lower to 1 inch fro the floor, never relaxing.

These exercises may not seem like much but do these 3 times per week 15 reps each, and you’ll see the difference in no time.
