"Hi, I'm Ashleigh Gass, strength and conditioning specialist with brilliantathlete.com. So just how do you get rid of cellulite by working out? Well, let's just clarify something: Cellulite is just body fat. It occurs in men and women, but it can occur more often in women, perhaps because there is a hormonal component present. But just because you're a woman, doesn't mean that you have to have cellulite. Now, in order to get rid of it by working out, you have got to increase overall strength and overall muscle tone. Why? Because muscle tone and muscle mass will help you lose body fat. So exercises such as the lunge not only works your bum, but can help build overall muscle tone in your lower body, which will help with body fat loss. Something else that is absolutely critical is you've got to change the way that you eat because body fat accumulates after years of poor eating. Poor eating means a diet that's rich in packaged, processed, sugary foods. So if you want to get rid of body fat, make sure that you're increasing your overall muscle tone as well as eating more fruits, vegetables, lean, organic proteins like chicken, eggs, beef, and your healthy fats, such as olive oil, fish oil, flex oil, et cetera.
