Most women are affected by cellulite. If you pinch your skin on your upper thigh and it feels like a lump then you might be having cellulite. Actually cellulite is a deposit of fat beneath your skin. It causes a person's skin to look dimpled and lumpy. The skin may resemble an orange peel. To any woman conscious of her looks it can be quite unnerving as cellulite usually accumulates around the hips, butt and thighs. Now, the good news. You are not alone if you have a cellulite condition. More than 90% women are affected by Cellulite or Dermatomyoliposclerosis(DMLS), which is its scientific name. As the name suggests it is the accumulation of fat just beneath the skin. A number of cellulite reduction treatments are available today like Mesotherapy, Velasmooth, Cellubike, Endermologie, Accent, Wellbox etc. But before going in for all that fancy and expensive treatments one should try exercising for Cellulite Reduction. As cellulite is essentially fat, exercise can help burn off those excess calories. Exercising also helps in toning up your body and building up muscle. Muscle increases the rate of metabolism of the body. This helps your body to burn calories faster. A well-toned body means your body will burn fat even when you are asleep. What then is the recommended exercise? Any exercise that activates your butt, thighs, calves and belly is good. You could try lunges, squats, crunches, sit-ups etc. Beginners could try with one set of 15 reps for each twice/thrice a week and gradually increase it to 3 sets of lesser repetitions. Crunches are also good for your abs. However, if you are too lazy or hard-pressed for time to exercise, then try climbing stairs instead of taking the elevator, walking to the grocery store to make purchases etc. Watching and controlling you diet will also help in cellulite reduction. Try eating less if you can help it, as this also helps in weight loss. Reduction in fat in your body also lowers the level of Cellulite in your body. Include plenty of fruits and vegetables in your diet. Your diet should contain simple fibres, proteins, foods that contain anti-oxidants. Such foods are fish, chicken, eggs, oats, low-fat dairy products. Avoid red meats. Switch over to herbal tea and de-caffeinated coffee. Also cut down on cigarettes and alcohol. Drink plenty of water, it is free and also helps rid your body of toxins, which retain cellulite in your body. So a combination of exercise and the right diet can help you in cellulite reduction and staying beautiful. --------Vianney.
