The bandeau bikini is a special type of bikini that is strapless up top, and leaves nothing to be hidden. If you can get into a bandeau bikini, you can make it anywhere. I murdered that cliche, but you get the idea. You need something a little extra special to get into one of those. So this article is your regimen to get into that baudeau bikini by next summer -- or if you're in LA, by next month. Here's how to get a bandeau bikini body.

Things You'll Need

   The first and best thing you can do to get a bandeau bikini body is to exercise correct posture. You'd be surprised at how many calories you can burn by just doing little things -- like opening the door instead of using the automatic, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, and standing straight up. You won't look good in any bikini if you don't stand with your shoulders back, your head up, which will naturally flatten your abs and show your curves. The first step to getting a bandeau bikini body is to act like you're proud of yours.

   Once you make the little changes necessary to burn those little calories, you can add "clean purging" to your diet. We as Americans eat a lot of stuff that sticks to our insides, and causes us to gain weight and look bloated. If you don't want to go the more extreme ways of cleansing, like enemas or perscription products, you can simply substitute green tea or chai tea for the coffee in the morning, and drink lots of water. Drink more than you think you need. Substitute honey for sugar. Substitute beets for cake.

So along with all the other tips you get for blasting your abs and defining your butt, add this to your regimen. Also -- to get a beach body, it helps to go to the beach! Exercise in water provides benefits that other types of exercises simply do not. also, running on the beach is beautiful and will get your mind off the fact that you're running. Make exercise fun.
