What's the best exercise to reduce cellulite

I hate that I have all these fat pockets on my legs and a$$. For the most part, I walk on the treadmill for about 40 min or 2 miles, whichever comes first on an incline of 5-6 3-4 times a week. I know a lot of it has to do with genetics, but still, it totally sucks. My mom has lots of it Chat Icon

Yeah, my friend did this and it was only a temp fix and very expensive. It didn't last long at all, but thanks for this info Chat Icon

Even skinny girls have cellulite.

Its a combo of both, excercise and diet.
Excercise will firm up the area. I mean weights, not just cardio.

No easy fix unfortunately.

Umm if you find out please let us know, lol! I think it is hereditary though and most people cannot stop it from happening. I'd say a combination of weights and cardio is prob the best...along with diet and drinking lots of water.

Re: What's the best exercise to reduce cellulite

You can't get rid of it, you can only reduce the appearance of it.

Try doing weight exercises, which will tone the underlying muscles and make the skin appear firmer (leg presses, lunges, whatever). Also try a self-tanning lotion for the legs, sometimes a darker skin color masks the cellulite.

ITA with this.

My current program (P90x) requires alot of lunges ans squats and I can already see small difference after 6 weeks. Finally!!

Diet Diet Diet!

No matter how hard you exercise if you diet is not in check your body won't show it.

It's 90% diet 10% exercise!

There are some products that are supposed to make your skin tighter. Bliss makes Fat Girl Slim (sold in Sephora) that's gotten reviews by people on here and in plenty of magazines.
