Anti-cellulite workout

by Mark Anthony
continued from page 3
picture shows thirty second six-inch squat

2. 30-second six-inch squat

What you need
2/3kg dumbbells

Targets
Front thighs and bottom.

Starting position
Stand straight with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the dumbbells on each side of your shoulders. Your arms will be bent at the elbow. Hold your abs in tight. Point your feet out slightly.

What to do

  • Move down into a squat position so that your legs are parallel to the floor.

  • Now gently move up and down, lifting off your heels (like a gentle bounce), through a six-inch range of movement for 30 seconds.

  • Return to starting position.

Repetitions
Perform two sets of 30-second squats.

Breathing
Breath normally.

How should you feel?
You should feel the front of your thighs and bottom burn. If you don't, then squat down a fraction lower. The body's not used to partial movement so expect a challenge.
