Old known cellulite. How to remove it?

Cellulite. Old known scarecrow of most women. And when we write most, we mean it literally. Research points out that these hated dimples are worn on thighs by 85% of women over age of 21. This statistic does not concern men, despite fact that paradoxically they have worse results in lifestyle. But let's leave debates about fairness aside now.

^{Cellulite is also called orange peel skin. Well, yes, we see, there is tangerine in photo. :)}

Cause why these irregularities appear on skin is not just single one. It is combo of several factors, among most common belong following:

• increased amount of fat in body due to weight gain,
• loss of collagen,
• poor blood circulation,
• thinning outer layer of skin,
• age,
• hormone estrogen,
• genetics.

Although cellulite is often defined as health problem, its presence does not have to mean at all that your body suffers from something or is not okay. Despite that most people want to get rid of it at any cost. Precisely therefore range of various methods and tips for removing orange peel skin is really wide. We looked at most inflected ones.

Better drinking regime

Consumption of larger amount of water is probably cheapest way how you can somehow reduce presence of cellulite on your body. Water not only hydrates you beautifully, but at same time supports circulation and lymphatic flow.

Massage

One of very popular ways how to get rid of unpleasant dimples is massage. However, keep in mind that one procedure will have absolutely no result. Similarly neither anti-cellulite cream will save you by simple rubbing. Key is correct technique and mainly regularity. You can practice massages yourself at home with special tool and cream or oil, but you can also entrust yourself to hands of expert mastering lymphatic drainage technique. It helps stretch skin tissue, therefore it is assumed that it helps in smoothing skin.

Weight reduction

People with obesity will generally benefit if they get rid of some amount of body weight. Loss of excess body fat can naturally reduce occurrence of cellulite too. But you shouldn't forget that cellulite is not conditioned by overweight or obesity. Therefore, if you don't need to lose weight, instead of weight reduction maybe just consider healthier diet and regular movement.

WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM

Exercise and cellulite

So since we mentioned exercise, let's devote separate paragraph to this activity. Yes, exercise is probably one of most reliable ways how to get rid of cellulite long-term and qualitatively. As bonus you will feel and look better. Isn't it amazing?

PROGRAM FOR CREATING HABIT OF REGULAR EXERCISE

Squats and cellulite on thighs and butt hate each other, and orange peel skin usually withdraws when it senses presence of this enemy. And if you master classic squats at royal level, try those with jump. Another good exercise is walking on stairs, of course upwards. But you don't have to run up to 12th floor of apartment building right now. It can be comfortably managed at home too, instead of stairs you can use crate or some sturdy box. If you still don't have enough, try side lunges. Our main advice is not to focus only on one exercise. Try for variety and to exercises focused on problem areas add also other activities, for example cycling, running, swimming, dancing or even ordinary brisk walking. And if you don't know how to deal with it yourself, turn to InstaGYM. You will find excellent home workouts with qualified trainers here and without necessity to drag heels from living room.
