Three Easy Tips For a Perfect Beach Body

Memorial Day is almost here, and many of us are already thinking about beaches, vacations, and warm weather. This is a good thing, as we all deserve a break from our busy schedules. For some, however, the thought of lying on a beach can bring up a lot of fear and anxiety, due to worrying about our “beach bodies” and how they will look in a couple months.

We all want the perfect beach body, but those of us with hectic schedules may not have the time to increase our exercise and workout routines. Diets can also be a problem, particularly for people who find it difficult to stick to their plans. On top of all that, people over 30 are likely realizing that some of that stubborn cellulite will not disappear, no matter how much exercise and dieting we try. This is especially true for women, as 90% of women have a cellulite problem at some point in their lives.

Does all of this mean we should just give up and suffer the loss to our self-esteem? Definitely not. We all deserve to have a body we're proud of, and there are actually many options for people who want a better beach body without having to sacrifice much time (or money.) Here are a few tips.

Drink Up

Some people will tell you that guzzling lots of water will make you look bloated. This is a myth. In reality, not hydrating causes you to retain water underneath the skin's surface, which leads to a puffy look. Cut out diuretics like caffeine and alcohol and sip 6-8 glasses of water per day. Your body will create a reserve of water below your muscles, pressing them out and adding definition.

Lose Weight By Sleeping

Your body restores itself while it sleeps, so it's operating at peak capacity (this includes processing food as quickly and efficiently as possible.) Therefore, if you want to speed up your metabolism, make sure you're getting at least 6-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep on a daily basis.

Take Advantage Of
New Technology

There are many new technologies and procedures that will help you get a better beach body without having to go through surgery or a lot of down-time. Venus Legacy is a good example of this, as it has helped a great many patients combat stubborn areas of fat/cellulite.

Using patented (MP) technology, Venus Legacy utilizes multi-polar radio frequency and pulsed magnetic fields which produce a soothing and therapeutic heat matrix over the skin. Skin tightening, wrinkle reduction and cellulite reduction occur because the multi-polar radio frequency causes a thermal reaction in the tissue, which stimulates the body's natural healing response. This response causes the skin to contract, achieving tighter skin, softening of wrinkles, and reduced cellulite.

The treatment itself is pain-free, and most patients see results in as little as three treatments. However, 8-10 treatments are recommended for optimal results. Ask a certified skincare/aesthetic professional to learn if this is a good option for you.
