Exercises for cellulite on the back of the thighs
Gynoid lipodystrophy, commonly known as cellulite, affects 98% of women… It consists of an abnormal buildup of fat in one area and ends up affecting nearby tissues (connective tissue).
Because so much fat is “squeezed” into one place, the area’s blood vessels are also affected. The solution? No over-the-top claims or magic formulas…
Training and diet
Ahhhh, but what kind of training, you might be wondering?? Lots of reps and light weights??? NOOOO!!! Light weights and lots of reps do NOT get rid of localized fat! Focus on intense, short-duration training…WITH added resistance!

I won’t get into the debate about creams, cosmetic treatments, magazine superstitions, …after all, what woman can live without them… it’s part of the female universe. 🙎🏻🙎🏽🙋🏼🙅🏻By the way: All women in the world, famous or not, have cellulite too. “Perfection” doesn’t exist… that’s called Photoshop…
