Is Your Body Bikini-Ready?By Ben
Carmichael It's summer,
at last! During the winter months most of
your body was covered with Chances are,
you've worked out religiously all winter to
sculpt your body into its sexiest best. If you aren't satisfied with
what you
see, try some toning and firming exercises designed to exorcise the
flab that's
holding on for dear life. Conditioning
exercises are the key to whip problem areas
of your upper body, tummy, hips, butt and thighs into shape.
Conditioning lets
you pinpoint the trouble areas of your body and tone and shape them
with specific
exercises. Volumes of conditioning exercises can be found online or
books and
magazines. It's time to
shake the dust off of the weights, jump rope
and exercise ball, putting them to use in ways that will have your body
bikini-ready in no time. While you're concentrating on body-sculpting,
don't
forget to get in a cardio workout to keep the metabolism going and the
fat
burning. You've heard
it many times before, but get your daily fill
of water so that you stay hydrated as the summer temperature soars.
Water
intake flushes toxins from your system and keeps that ugly cottage
cheese look
called "cellulite" from creeping into your body. Don't forget
the importance of a healthy diet. Your skin
will reflect the foods you put into your body, so be especially careful
during
the summer months to get plenty of fruits and vegetables that are
naturally in
season - and good for you. After you've
done all you can to firm and tone your body,
it's time to think about the condition of all that skin showing off in
a bikini
- and that's a lot! To achieve
glowing, silky smooth skin that you'll be proud
to flaunt, begin by exfoliating. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells
that lay
on the surface of your skin and leaves it soft and toned. To
effectively
exfoliate your skin, use a natural bristle brush or your favorite
exfoliating
cream. Remove
unwanted hair by using a razor, waxing or hair
removal cream - and don't forget to use a moisturizer afterward. And,
keep your
skin in top condition by using a sun screen - and apply it often when
you're on
the beach. You'll also avoid wrinkles and skin cancer as you age. Make the time and effort to follow the above tips and your body can be bikini-ready and as sizzling hot as the summer temps.
