With swimsuit season at its peak, lets face it, most of us girls will take all the help we can get to confidently strut our bathing suit clad bodies around the pools and beaches in this sizzling hot Houston summer. \u00a0\u00a0I know you are all well equipped with In Style<\/i> Magazine\u2019s June addition of the \u201cBest Bathing Suits for Your Bod\u201d in hand, not to mention an extensive check list on the many ways to create that faux slim swimsuit look via spray tan ab etching, thigh reducing cellulite creams (really? Tried them, they don\u2019t work!), and lets not forget the practiced logistics of how to lay, so your fat falls into perfect formation fooling the most judgmental eye.<\/p>\n
But to my disappointment, the simple fact is that with all the creams and tanning devices available, the faux slimming swimsuit experts have failed to figure out one thing; how to conceal the plain truth of what\u2019s really going down. . . (Yes, I\u2019m talking about my ass!).\u00a0 Why is it with all these advancements in fat concealing some of us still have to experience that moment of dread, when we bravely stand up from our well manipulated fat securing\u00a0 pose and suck and tuck it all in for that jiggly walk to the pool.\u00a0\u00a0 Sure, I\u00a0 know what your thinking, for Gods sake girl, just keep your butt in your lawn chair and avoid the walk of thigh clapping thunder to the pool, but it\u2019s not an option, it\u2019s Houston, its hot, we have to get in!<\/p>\n

Well ladies, fret no longer about that bathing suit jiggle, \u2018cause I\u2019m here to help with a sweat-inducing circuit style workout designed to burn the max calories while toning up that lower body and working your core and shoulders! \u00a0\u00a0I did this at home last week and started out with 20 minutes of cardio on my treadmill to get my body in its fat burning zone (I LOVE to burn fat).\u00a0 From there I gabbed ankle bands and weights that were heavy enough to fatigue my muscles around 15-20 reps, then got started on my circuit workout.\u00a0 My goal was to kept up a steady pace by doing one exercise after the other with no rest in between and keeping my heart rate elevated.\u00a0 After I finished the first round of exercises (pant, pant) I did a minute of mountain climbers (more panting followed by cursing) and then went on to complete 3 rounds total.\u00a0 Yay me!\u00a0 This is one swimsuit worthy workout, sure to put a little swing in any girls strut!<\/p>\n
Go get your sweat on!<\/p>\n
