BUM

SIX WAYS TO A PEACHY BOTTOM

Take the stairs and walk uphill. You won't firm up your bottom unless you're walking against a little resistance.  Beware ‘chair bottom’. Don't sit down when you don't need to. Did you know one in five adults spend over 30 hours a week marooned on their sofas?  Tone your skin by dry-brushing. Using a natural bristle, brush your skin before your bath or shower – and  Imagine you have a £20 note between your bum cheeks. Gently keep hold of it by maintaining some ‘tone' in your buttocks, but don't over-clench.  Think about your posture. If you let your tummy sag out and pelvis tip forward, your gluteals (bottom muscles) are ‘on stretch' and aren't working. Keep your pelvis in neutral, slightly tipped back, tummy engaged.  Take up kickboxing. Kicks to the back, front and side target your bottom from all directions. You'll burn fat too.
