subject: The Wrong Cellulite Exercises Can Make Cellulite Even Worse [print this page] Cellulite exercises are just one of the many popular remedies that are argued about these days. When it comes to getting rid of this "cottage cheese", it should come as no surprise that there are a host of rip-off cellulite treatments consisting of exercise gadgets, lotions and pills that are really causing more fatty tissue problems than treating.
The FDA and also the FTC are continuously punishing companies which market these rip-off products and applications to unsuspecting consumers. But even using this type of policing, innocent people are still being victimized by ineffective and sometimes even harmful cellulite remedies.
This may be a familiar scenario.
* A woman gets so mad about the bumps and cavities on her body and finally chooses to start a workout program because a buddy told her that physical exercise gets rid of this fatty tissue.
* She joins the gym and starts a program and busts her butt for a few weeks using the usual weights and machines. The initial muscle soreness diminishes and she cruises along getting in two or three hardcore ab and lower body workouts each week.
* But every time she strips down to get into the shower, she catches a shot of her reflection in the mirror and finds that the cellulite is still there with a vengeance. She may be slightly stronger in the lower body but no nearer to the smooth skin she was working so hard for. (It's important to observe that this result also happens with the bogus cellulite creams and machines available on the market as well.)
* Skipping ahead a few more weeks into her typical workout program, she finds that the cellulite still isn't going away. And as much as she doesn't want to admit it, she realizes that the cellulite is getting worse.
But the main problem is actually the type of workout she was carrying out. General exercises which are prescribed at the gym or on fitness DVDs are not made to specifically get rid of cellulite on a woman's lower body. Only specific cellulite exercises will decrease and banish her "orange peel" skin.
Naturally, this particular frustrated woman stops her workouts entirely and gives up any hope of getting rid of her "hail damage". The bad part is that she still actually believes the exercise program she was on had been intended to decrease her cellulite, when in reality it was not.
Due to this damaging misconception, she is now convinced it is her bad genetics that have cursed her with cellulite for the rest of her life. Since you are reading this, I can only assume that you have also experienced this kind of misdirection and subsequent letdown. But I'm sure you haven't completely lost hope.
Perhaps you have cellulite now or you may be trying to avoid it as you get old. Whatever the case, I really hope this article has assisted you in understanding the risks of ineffective cellulite exercises and how to steer clear of the discomfort and lost hope that can result from selecting the wrong program.
