Simple Exercises For the Arms

No matter how young or old you get, toned arms can definitely add plus points to your beauty meter. Check out Madonna! This hot momma is already famous and beautiful but the sexy curves on her arms make her look younger and fierce.

You do not need to go to the gym to achieve a pair of well-toned arms. There are simple exercises you can do at home to have arms like Madonna’s. The exercises however simple will not be effective unless you have the discipline and time to do the routine.

Bicep Curls

Beginners can use a pair of 5 lbs dumbbell but you can also try up to 15 lbs dumbbells. Stand in upright position, legs apart Make sure that your feet are aligned with your shoulders. Slowly lift your arms into a curl position and lower back down with control. Do this in 10 repetitions with sets of 3.

Tricep Dips

This can be done by using the bottom stair or a sturdy chair. Sit on the chair with your hands on the side of your hips. Let your palms rest on the chair with your fingers hanging on the edge of the chair. Slowly move your backside off the chair with your palms still in place. Extend your legs as far as you can but keep your upper body in sitting position. Slowly lower your hips down with your elbow bending backwards. Don’t let your butt touch the floor. Then slowly lift your hips up. Do this in 10 repetitions with sets of 3.

Lateral Raises

Use 1 to 3 lbs of dumbbells for each hand. Stand up in upright position (same position with bicep curls).  Carry the dumbbell on each hand and let your hands rest on your sides. Slowly lift your hands sideways then slowly lower your hands without touching your hips. Do this in 10 repetitions with set of 1.

Do the exercises regularly, at least 3 times a week, and you’ll achieve gorgeous sexy arms in no time. For those who do not have the luxury of time to work-out, there is another way to tone your arms – lipocavitation. The treatment does not involve any surgery but you still need to have qualified practitioners to do the job. Seek professional advice, for more information about lipocavitation. If you are in the Philippines or Palau, you can inquire at Dr. Almond Derla’s Clinic, LaEstetica International. Check out the clinic’s website at: http://www.laestetica.com.ph/

Jennifer Hudson's Sucess to Losing Weight

It's not easy to lose weight but seeing someone who successfully does it, is enough motivation for me to do the same. Jennifer Hudson used to be a size 22 but now she is a size 6. Pretty impressive, right? Here's what I found on how she lost 60 lbs. It consisted of proper diet and exercise. It's no secret. We all know that these are the safest way to achieve a healthy and fit body. 

If you want to lose weight, Jennifer Hudson style, you need to follow the Five Factor Diet. This is made up of dining on five portion controlled meals, per day. Additionally, she removed all the refined and processed foods and instead substituted them with palm size servings of protein, fiber, and carbohydrates.

Jennifer’s exercise routine included a visit to the gym, five times a week. The workout is called the Five Factor Fitness. This includes 5 minute segmented workouts done five days a week.

Here are the basic rules of the Five Factor Fitness:

1. 5 minute cardio warm-up. (e.g. marching, jogging, jumping jacks, opposite knee to opposite elbow, and boxing)
2. 5 minutes workout for upper body strength
3. 5 minutes workout for lower body strength
4. 5 minutes workout for abdominals
5. 5 minutes for a cardio cool-down.

However, there are just stubborn cellulites that are difficult to reduce even if you have achieved your target weight.  The traditional way of losing these unwanted deposits is through liposuction. Unfortunately, there are some of us (like me) who are scared of invasive procedure especially when it involves needles!!!! The good news is, there is an alternative to liposuction that is non-invasive but effective. Say hello to lipocavitation! This treatment is ideal for people who have problem areas (e.g. thighs, arms, butt, tummy) and could not solve the problem through exercise. The procedure only takes 40 minutes at the most and you could go back to your normal routine afterwards. Few sessions are enough to help you solve your problem areas. What’s important is that a trained doctor or nurse should do this treatment, because there is a certain frequency of the waves that can be used so as not to be harmful to humans. Make it a point to go to certified professionals if you choose to seek lipocavitation.  If you happen to be in the Philippines or Palau, visit Dr. Almond Derla’s clinic at LaEstetica International.  For more information you can visit LaEstetica International’s official website.
