I do your workout videos for 40 mins 5 days a week and the anti-cellulite is included…once a week. I eat quite healthy – 3 healthy meals a day, although I have to admit, I have a sweet tooth!

I weigh 119lbs and am looking to get down to about 111lbs. However, I have already been at 111lbs before and I still have this awful cellulite!! What can I do about it?”

Hi Anna,

I have great news for your. I am working on a project dedicated especially and only to cellulite. It will include anti cellulite diet, many video exercises to melt cellulite along with helpful articles and resources for anti cellulite creams that works and you can test them for free. Probably in a couple of months I will announce it. Till then, take following steps to change your diet:

Cellulite sin foods and drinks – eliminate them:

• Bread
• Coffee
• Sugar – cakes, pudding, chocolate
• Fast food
• Alcohol
• Fat meat

Foods and drinks that help to remove cellulite – eat them often:

• Broccoli
• Lentils
• Avocado
• Nuts
• Milk
• Eggs
• Lean meat
• Fish
• Water
• Vegetables
• Tea

Add some massage

When you have shower, massage vigorously your hips and buttocks. Put some shower gel on your hands, make some lather and apply to your legs, hips and buttocks with vigorous massage. Massage as long as you like it. This will improve the blood circulation and you can see results after 2 weeks. I like to make massage myself with anti cellulite product while I am watching TV. Just lift your legs on a chair, so it will be easy to massage them. You can use any body lotion or anti cellulite product you want, because the skin is more slippery and easy to massage.

Please, post in the comments below your diet, because I think probably this is the reason you can’t successfully treat cellulite. I will try to think of a good diet for you.

All the best,

Rumi

I’m trying to take a new healthier approach, and do not want to do myself any harm. I am 16, about 5″6 and 125 pounds. I’m an active girl in both basketball and football. I do yoga 5-6 times a week.

I vary my workout plan with skipping, running, walking and core work. My eating habits consist of overall healthy food. My parents are big on eating organic foods.

I do tend to over enjoy my sweets. However my thighs and lower stomach are problematic areas for me.

How do I slim upper thighs, and tone my lower abs?

Hi Willow,

Congratulations on your healthy approach to keeping yourself in shape! You’re right – going to extremes is not recommended for anyone, and as you’ll no doubt be aware, when you’re a teen, you’ve got to look after yourself that little bit more! Here’s what I would suggest for you to do:

Add to your usual workouts abs exercises (I point you to my core workout site, where I publish pics how to properly do exercises) – don’t do only lower abs (which you define as problematic), do also upper and side abs exercises.

Add thigh exercises – front thigh exercises, inner thigh exercises and back thigh exercises.

To answer your question about healthy weight loss: it is 2 pounds per week, but probably you don’t need this, but some exercises. You are in the age where you are constantly looking for perfection, but be careful to not harm your self – don’t be afraid of asking your parents for advice too, because they know what is best for you.

I wish you nice looking abs and thigh

All the best,

Rumi

Also I wanna know if I buy your workout videos can those be shipped to me in my country India…if so how would the costs be affected? Thanks and keep up the good work.

Hi Preeti,

Thank you for your nice letter

Cardio is one of the best ways to warm up the body. The reason for this is that you start with some pace and slightly increase it after your body adapts to the effort. For example I love treadmill as cardio because:

• It gives you control on the speed from the beginning to the end of the warm up. You can start at very slow speed and slightly increase the sped every 2-3 minutes in order to give the body the chance to adapt to the speed and even asks for more lol

• You can warm up not only your legs (it is obvious legs are the most involved in treadmill cardio), but also your arms, abs, back and buttocks muscles. How this happens? While you walking on the treadmill (I don’t recommend running, fast walking is better) you can move your arms forward-backward and even try to tighten them. The same with your abs – tighten them, but this will happen even without effort of you because abs are responsible for the overall posture of the body and they tighten while you walk or run. And not on the last place – buttocks – walking and running is the best exercise for them too.

• You burn fat – we all beg for this lol

Long story short – you don’t need to warm up after cardio in order to do exercises.

About ordering my exercise DVDs, the shipment is included in the price of $40. I use regular post and it will take from 1 to 3 weeks to come to India (can’t predict the speed of the post services, sometimes they are really fast, sometimes it takes very long to receive the DVD’s).

Until DVDs come, you can workout using my online version of exercise videos.
