Hello to the whole #CelluBlueTeam! Thank you for joining us for Day 3 of the Fitness Challenge!
Remember to do the exercises at your own pace and pay close attention to your form to avoid injury.
In today’s session, we’ll be working on the thighs and glutes — so you can look and feel your best on the beach this summer!
EXERCISES
Exercise 1: Leg Extensions
To perform this first exercise, get down on all fours with your forearms flat on the floor. Your knees should be positioned directly under your hips. Lift your right leg behind you and extend it upward, pointing your toes toward the ceiling. Slowly lower your knee, bringing it toward your chest, and just before it touches the floor, raise your leg back up again.
Repeat the movement 20 times on one side, then 20 times on the other.
Exercise 2: X Lunges
Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart and parallel. Bend your knees and, leaning your body forward, reach down to touch your right foot with your left hand. From the bottom position, push through your feet and jump into the air with your legs straight. Control your landing and touch down gently to avoid injury. Repeat the movement, this time touching your left foot with your right hand.
Repeat 10 times on each side.
Exercise 3: Squat
For this final exercise, return to the same starting position. Keeping your back as straight as possible, bend your knees until you reach a seated position: your glutes should push back, your torso leans slightly forward, and your knees must not go past your toes. To come back up, drive through your legs and squeeze your glutes for the best results!
Repeat 20 times.
TIPS
How to get beautiful legs? We recommend combining cardio and strength training, using coffee scrubs, and massaging your legs (you can use the CelluBlue Suction Cup to target cellulite). Don’t forget the simple everyday habits too — take the stairs, get off public transport one stop early…
THE ANTI-CELLULITE TIP
To tackle cellulite, the pinch-and-roll massage is one of the most effective techniques out there.
This technique works by kneading the skin to stimulate lipolysis, which helps to release fat from adipose cells while boosting both venous and lymphatic circulation.
These actions help combat cellulite and the orange-peel effect, as well as reducing water retention. Ideal for flushing out toxins beneath the skin, this massage can be performed using a device, by a professional, or by hand.
The movement should always go from bottom to top to support circulation. While this technique can sometimes feel intense, it is remarkably effective against all types of cellulite. A few basic principles should always be followed:
The massage should always be performed on skin that has been pre-oiled.
The pinch-and-roll technique should never be used on broken or wounded skin, as it may worsen injuries and interfere with healing.
