Many people ask me what is a surefire way to create the ultimate bikini workout? Usually they need to get in shape for a special event such as a wedding, class reunion, an internet date or some other crazy thing. Bikini’s are made to not cover a whole lot of the body. So when you have most of yourself exposed to the general public and most certainly the opposite sex I expect that you would want to put your best foot… or body forward. Many women try to include strength training into their routine to help build the required muscle needed to balance out their bodies. This is great except that many women start working on their legs and hips and forget about their upper body which is an important part of sculpting their overall look.
I recommend staying light on the lower body for the first six weeks. Light stretching and dance movements may benefit but no lower body strength training. It is important to do multiple joint exercises such as pushups, presses, horizontal rows, lat pulldowns and many core movements for your midsection, abs and lowback. When you include these types of exercises into your routine, you insure against injury and create a strong stable environment to begin performing your lower body exercises.
This bikini workout will help undo many of the imbalances you have suffered through a life of sitting in a chair for eight hours a day or eating your way to a size 12. Keep in mind that a bikini workout can only work if you are committed to putting the time and effort into it. It has never been my experience that you just one day wake up from a life full of eating unhealthy and laziness and viola’ a beautiful bikini body. Remember… commitment is the cornerstone of accomplishment.
