Many women think that in order to tone their lower body they have to get out and run mile after mile. This is simply not the case.
In fact, increasing lean muscle (through weight training- NOT cardio) is the quickest and most effective way to help naturally reduce the appearance of cellulite, especially in the legs and butt.
Not only will the muscle volume fill in the looser areas of the skin, where cellulite tends to show most, lean muscle will also continue to burn fat for you even when you’re at rest. Muscle underlies the collagen and fat layer, and when muscle mass is built and strengthened below, it pulls the connective tissues tighter. This works to increase soft tissue integrity. A resistance-training program for the lower body that focuses on muscle growth is essential here—squats, lunges, etc.
Your training focus should be to use heavy weights that induce failure. In addition to getting a total body workout, your goal is to challenge these tough-to-tone areas from several angles with heavy weight and with various hybrid exercises.
You will train to the point of failure in each workout in order to correct the hormonal imbalance in the hips and thighs, induce testosterone and stimulate HGH release. Similarly, we also want to generate metabolic failure (the burning sensation in the muscles is so great, that resting is necessary) as this does a very similar thing hormonally.
On your training day, your goal is to repeat one circuit workout for as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes! At the end of your 20 minutes, induce additional hormonal responses by completing your 5 minute BLT finisher- alternating between two targeted toning exercises and resting as needed.
