your waist and body fat, as well as boostingyour heart health and reducing fat aroundyour inner organs. Well do this by focusing
on cardio work to burn calories and fat. Theresistance portion of the plan targets the midsection to tone your abdominals (it will also
help lower your risk of back pain; having aprotruding stomach puts extra pressure on
the spine) and well be working to buildmuscle tone, particularly in the legs as
this will help to boost your metabolism.As an apple, you should take care to
protect your (often delicate) ankles andknees, particularly if youre very overweight.
If this is the case, rowing machines and crosstrainers are a great choice for cardio work asthey support your bodyweight, reducing
impact on your joints. These two machinesalso recruit multiple muscles (upper and lowerbody simultaneously) boosting your calorie
burn. Swimming and walking are other goodlow-impact options, especially for beginners.Get some new trainers to cushion your joints,
and pre-condition your legs with calf raisesand stretches. If youre not overweight andare already fit, you can add running into
your routine.

Would you love more shape anddefinition? If youre straight-up-and-down,follow this programme for celery shapesto create a fitter, more shapely you

So the focus for you celery shapes is onimproving your cardio fitness and doingtoning exercises to increase muscle mass,
strength and bone density, and to give yourbody definition.
Your slimmer body and lighter frame makes
you very suited to cardio exercise, particularlyrunning. Pre-conditioning is a must if youre abeginner spend time introducing your body
to the exercises, starting with, for example,walking and slow running or lifting very light
weights just because youre not particularlyoverweight, it doesnt mean you cant sufferinjury or strain! Swimming is a great starting
place for celeries as its an excellent form ofnon-impact cardio exercise that can adddefinition to the shoulders, giving you more
shape. Very slim or underweight celeriesshould bear in mind cardio exercise such asrunning will boost an already high
metabolism, causing potential further weightloss. So if you dont have excess weight tolose, on day four of your plan, select a gentle
form of exercise, such as Pilates or yoga. Ifyoure trying to shed some weight, make dayfour a further cardio session of your choice.

Problem areas for hourglassshapes are often excess flesh
around the bra area and thedreaded bingo wings on theback of the upper arm. So your
hourglass programme involvessome great toning exercises forthe upper body, as well as a
good cross-training cardioexercise plan. By mixing upcardio work on the cross
trainer and bicycle withrunning and rowing, youll bechallenging all muscle groups
for all-over toning, and yourbody has to work hard toadapt to the challenge.
If youre very overweight,avoid running at the start of
your training because you maystrain joints or injure yourself dueto the impact (the heavier you are,the higher impact on your joints
when running). Cycling, cross trainingmachines and rowing are all kinderto joints and are great ways toincrease fitness while blasting the
fat. As your fitness improves, youcan start to up the intensity.

The problem for pears is that your heavierlower body may feel out of proportion with
your upper body. Pears often make themistake of focusing solely on the lower bodyin their workout, doing lots of Step or Spin
classes, for example, which can make yourthighs even more bulky. The secret is toinclude upper-body work too, to build muscle
Te secret fr pears ist iclude upper-bdywrk t, t build musclead balace prprtis
If you want to slim down your hips andthighs, this programme designed forthe classic British pear shape is for youPear
and balance your proportions. For maximum
calorie blasting, I recommend multi-joint(working more than one joint simultaneously)cardio exercises, such as rowing, which works
shoulder, hip and knee joints and all theirmuscles. By working the upper and lower
body simultaneously in this way, moremuscles are used, creating higher calorie burn.If youre reasonably fit and not overweight,you can get even better results by adding
interval training, which will increase your totalcalorie burn. Watch out for upcoming tips oninterval training!
Alongside this cardio work, your programmewill involve lifting some weights to createmore muscle definition in your upper body,
which will help balance out your proportions.The extra lean muscle tissue you develop willhelp you burn more calories each day.
