Staying Bikini Sexy for Summer!


Cardio
You can burn as many calories running for 30 minutes as what you would burn in 60 minutes walking. Don't forget, running will generate a calorie burn long after the exercise has ceased, as opposed to calorie consumption stopping soon after the walking stops. Don't forget to slip slop slap.
Having sex can burn well over 100 calories per hour if the intensity is right! So what are you waiting for? I don't think you need any more incentive to pick up the intensity!
Avoid eating within 90 minutes prior to exercising, as blood would be distributed away from your working muscles and down to your stomach, this will reduce your aerobic performance.
Remember consistency is the key. Don't go for the quick fix or fad diet. Aim to include exercise into YOUR lifestyle on a regular basis for long term results.
Food
Don't skip meals - this can slow your metabolism and the end result is weight gain.
Make sure you always have snacks handy because if you are hungry and you go to buy a snack you will often chose the wrong foods. Always aim to eat protein with each meal. Protein burns slowly so it helps to satiate therefore helping you to eat less. If you are vegetarian try legumes (chickpeas, lentil, kidney beans) nuts and seeds, tofu, or brown rice.
Have no more than 1 tsp of salt in your diet per day. Great salt alternatives are sea, vegetable and Celtic salt, Tamari soy sauce and try Miso paste as a stock or gravy alternative.
Have a glass of warm water with lemon in it first thing in the morning. This will help to stimulate the kidney and increase thirst through out the day. Also the lemon is very good in stimulating digestive enzymes.
The average person overeats by around 30 per cent. Some good tips for eating less are; always leave a little food on your plate, aim to take 20 minutes to eat you meal and wait 30 minutes before eating after a meal.
When reading labels always read for the per 100g. Sugar should be no more than 10g per 100g, saturated fat should be no more than 7g per 100g and sodium (salt) should be between 250mg and 300mg per 100g or less.
If you do not like the taste of water try squeezing half an orange, lemon or lime and add some fresh ginger or mint. It will make a zesty and fresh alternative. My favourite recipe is sliced watermelon, strawberries and raspberries in icy chilled water.
Make sure you are eating a diet high in fibre, at least 40 grams per day. Psyllium husks, raw fruit and vegetable, grain, nuts and seeds are all excellent source of fibre.
Flexibility
Avoid upside down poses like the backbend whilst menstruating.
Complete all yoga practice with five minutes of rest. Lie on your back, spine straight, palms facing up. Try and keep your mind still, use this time to allow your body to absorb the benefits of the practice.
When your arms are extended over your head you don't want your ribs to flare out. It's important to keep them compact and closed.
There are many types of yoga available now, so try something different such as Ashtanga, Integral, Iengar or even laughing yoga.
More.
Join a sports team or find a regular exercise class, you'll increase your chances of meeting people and have fun getting fit!
Be patient - the weight didn't go on overnight, so it wont come off overnight.
If you need motivation, enlist a friend or employ a personal trainer to exercise with you. Getting up in the morning is easier if you know someone is counting on you.

Bikini Fashion Tips

Chances are, if you are like most women, you have had difficulty picking out a swimsuit at some point in your life. Each spring, as the fashion magazines bombard you with the latest trends and fashion advice, you have likely become somewhat frustrated and overwhelmed with the seemingly futile search for the perfect swimsuit.
To aid you in your search for that perfect bikini this summer (yes, you should still have hope), here are 10 tried and true bikini fashion tips. Feel free to browse through the list, take what is useful to you now, and store the rest away for a rainy day next spring.
* Be honest with yourself about the swimsuit you are trying on. If the bikini does not fit, you definitely should not wear it. There are enough bikini styles out there that you will be able to find one that flatters your figure. The key is to keep looking.
* If the bikini you are trying on does not offer enough coverage, the solution is a different style, not a larger size. A larger size may only result in a saggy, too-loose bikini.
* Try online shopping. Not only will online shopping limit your encounters with tiny dressing rooms, bad mirrors, and harsh lights, it will also give you the opportunity to browse through hundreds of styles quickly and efficiently.
* For an overall slimming effect, always choose darker, matte colors over shiny pastels. Light, shiny colors have a tendency to show every flaw. Of course, black is always the most slimming color, but a navy blue or dark red will serve the same purpose.
* Be sure that your bikini top offers the right amount of support. Appropriate support can lift and shape small breasts and flatter large breasts. It will also prevent any unnecessary embarrassment in your bikini. If you have large breasts, especially, look for a bikini top with a hidden underwire or elastic support.
* Do not try to mask figure flaws with overall, swaddling coverage. Such coverage will often only make you appear larger. Instead, try wearing a lighter, attention-grabbing color on a part of the body you would like to showcase. Then, pair that piece with a darker color on a feature or figure flaw you would like to diminish. This will draw eyes away from any sensitive areas.
* Never wear a white bikini without double, or even triple, lining. No matter how opaque the fabric may appear when dry, there is no guarantee it will stay opaque when wet. The best trick is to place your hand inside the bikini and look in the mirror. If you can see skin, the bikini is not appropriately lined.
* Before purchasing a bikini, make sure you check the rear. You will want to be sure the bikini offers your desired amount of coverage before you debut it on the beach.
* In general, you should always choose a bikini style with high-cut legs. A high cut will lengthen the legs and make the hips and thighs appear slimmer. This tip alone is guaranteed to shave 10 pounds off your appearance.
* Do not get so caught up in the latest trends that you forget about classic bikini styles. There is a reason the triangle bikini top and simple full bikini bottom have been in style for so long; they offer simple flattery that does not change with the trends. When considering trendy styles, always be honest with yourself about how they look and feel on your body.
Despite your past experiences, there really may be one or more flattering bikinis out there for you. With the above fashion tips in mind, you should be ready to hit the stores and then the beach with full confidence in your bikini beauty.

BIKINI STYLES : String Bikini






The string bikini is one of the first and most classic renovations of the traditional bikini. It generally consists of the barest minimal fabric coverage for the top and bottoms, with thin strings serving as straps and support. The string bikini is most often composed of four triangles of material--one piece each for the breasts, crotch, and butt. Jumping on board the sexual revolution of the 1960s (during which men and women began to seriously reconsider the public ban of nudity), the string bikini became a popular bikini style in the 1970s. While the major erogenous zones of the 1960s had been the breasts and the midriff, the string bikini indicated a shift in public attention toward the upper thighs. Also known as the Tanga, the string bikini was an import from the Brazilian beaches of Rio de Janeiro. It became so popular at its introduction to the United States in 1974 that Manhattan’s Bloomingdale’s sold out its entire order of 150 swimsuits in only two weeks. Another popular Madison Avenue boutique exhausted its supply of 160 string bikinis in just two days! This burst of popularity proved to be only the beginning for the string bikini. The classic style continues to be one of the most commonly purchased by American women, especially among women in their twenties. The string bikini is not ideal for every woman’s body. As Beverly Hills designer Jim Riva stated at the string bikini’s birth, “It’s something I’d hate to see on every woman in the world.” For some women, however, the string bikini may actually be the most flattering bikini style. The string bikini style looks best on women with small busts or boy shapes. Because women with small breasts do not need a large amount of bra-style support, a traditional triangle top can serve to add more shape and curve to the breasts. In addition, triangle tops with built-in underwires can work similarly to a push-up bra to maximize the breasts. When choosing a string bikini, be forewarned that the style only works on women with very slender figures. The tight strings of a string bikini tend to cut into the skin and cause unsightly bulges on women with fuller figures. To avoid this problem, make sure the strings of the bikini are not cutting into the skin. If they are, this is a clue that you may need a larger size or a different style.
