Determine the stage of cellulite
The first thing to do is to determine the stage of cellulite. 1 and 2 hydrolipodystrophy is edematous cellulite. Stage 3 and 4 - this is already fibrous cellulite, which is difficult to get rid of at home, we can only improve its condition.
So, let's say that you understand what stage of cellulite you have to fight. Then, go to step number two and outline a plan of action that will help remove the unevenness of the fat layer.
Balancing nutrition
An orange peel indicates an unbalanced diet. Accordingly, the first thing to do is to adjust nutrition in order to reduce the appearance of cellulite and reduce the thickness of the fat layer. It is worth limiting in your diet simple sugars and baked goods made from white flour - these are sources of "empty" energy. Principles.
- Drink at least 8 glasses of pure water a day, because insufficient consumption of it contributes to the formation of cellulite.
- Eat four to five times a day.
- For breakfast, complex carbohydrates are porridge, fresh vegetables, fruits.
- Snack - any fruit, nuts, cottage cheese.
- For lunch, there is baked fish, chicken, turkey with a side dish.
- Dinner or protein - lean poultry, fish. Or carbohydrate (stewed vegetables) three hours before bedtime.
The next step is sports, physical activity
If fitness and you are incompatible, then you know you are not alone. Numerous polls show that half of the women on the planet deny themselves sports activities for various reasons. But there is a way out. To reduce the volume, start with long walks of 2 hours in the park, for example, early in the morning and late in the evening. Walk at the same speed, rely on uphill walking - this is the ideal load at any time of the day. Morning walks help to significantly reduce weight, normalize hormone levels, and in the evening - cope with stress and negative emotions.
If you just pump up the muscles, the "orange peel" will appear more clearly, becoming more convex. In this regard, it is necessary not only to pump muscles, but also to do cardio.
