Jump Your Way To Less Cellulite!

I'm serious!  Cellulite is a condition in which the skin takes on a dimpled look, known as 'cottage cheese' or 'orange peel'.  It hits more women than men and shows itself more in the mid-section (abdomen, hips, butt and upper thighs).

The exact cause is unknown, but it is believed to be caused by a buildup of fluids in your body, generally by sitting too long or being less than active.  It is also said to be aggravated by the hormone estrogen and a high stress lifestyle.  This means anyone can develop cellulite!

One of the best ways to combat it is with massage, exercise and, yes...jumping.  Jumping gets the lymphatic system moving better than anything (even walking) and helps shed the fat and fluids faster.   This means less cellulite in less time and you'll even get some cardio out of the deal...sounds great to me!
