Easy Exercise to Eliminate Cellulite

I took an Olympic Weightlifting Course last week, along with another House of Verona team member. There was a lady in the class, named Elaine, who I estimated to be in her early 20s.

At half-time, Elaine announced, “I’ll be right back – I have to tighten my kids’ skates.”

Kids?

She has 3 kids. She later shared that she was turning 40 next year. She boasted very little fat on her body. No bat-wings. And amazingly, she had no cellulite (she was in short-shorts).

What’s her secret?

“Deadlifts!” She told me; “I started doing them 2 years ago and I had lots of cellulite back then. Now…no cellulite!”

If you’re unaware of what they are, they are one of the simplest exercises to learn.

• Find a bar weight that you are comfortable picking up (10 to 40 lbs for beginners).
• Place the bar on the ground at your feet.
• Stand straight up in front of the bar, feet shoulder width, knees slightly bent, back straight.
• Squat down, bending equally at your waist and knees.
• Grab the bar with either an overgrip or an under/overgrip. Your hands should be waist-width apart.
• Look straight ahead, keep your spine flat, breathe in, and lift by extending your legs and waist. Keep the bar close to your body.
• Pause, bend your knees, and lower back down to the starting position.
• Repeat 15 times. Complete 3 sets. Add more weight onto the bars as you become stronger.

If you’re having a hard time, or feeling uncomfortable, ask one of your gym’s trainers to spot you.

Good luck!
