Get the body of your dreams today
It may be that hourglass figure you have been praying and fasting for eons or simply you want to feel lighter and healthier either way like they say a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.
A woman’s body is a source of wonderment. Let’s be honest a well-toned, curvy body is very, very attractive and we simply can’t get over it. It’s the reason why celebrities like Beyonce and Kim Kardashian have millions of followers on social media and their whole careers are riding on it. Stories, songs, poems and even whole buildings and yachts have all been inspired by women’s feminine curves.Â
The wide hips, the firm breasts and bum, the long neck, the soft hands, and the alluring figure of a woman will forever remain etched in the minds of humans as long as humanity exists.
So, as a woman how do you enhance your curves to stand out? Here are just a few tips to get you started.
Workouts
It’s simple really your body is made of muscles which when put to work ‘pop up’ for lack of a better word. Your body gets firm as the last layers of fat melt. Different people store fats in different places and sometimes your body just decides to dump fat in the most undesirable of places. With time these fats slowly pile up and before you know it you are unrecognizable.Â
This is where workouts come in and not just any workouts but specific workouts geared to work certain areas of your body and achieve specific results. Say you want to work on firming up your butt. Doing press ups no matter how many will never give you that rear look you have been dying for. If you do squats, however, within no time you will be the talk of the town and have a bright future behind you. You might want to even insure that sexy ass like Jennifer Lopez, who believe it or not has a $27 million insurance policy on her butt.
Types of Workouts to get you started
There are several types of workouts you can roll out your mat and start doing today to enhance your feminine curves in two ways: build your strength and accentuate your abdomen to give you that slim sexy waist. Abdominal exercise helps compress your waist to give you that dream curve you so wish. It also helps improve your posture so that when you sit and stand upright you look more confident.Â

Note: Ladies you don’t have to get a super tiny wasp waist to feel like you now can go out and run the world. No, your aim is to lose excess fat and bring out the curves that were being hidden by the layers of fat clear?
Classic Squats
Stand up straight, feet hip-width apart and your arms directly in front of you.
Gently squeeze your glutes and squat down as far as you can go without bringing your knees past your toes or arching your back. Do three sets of 15 reps.
Planks
Plank is one of the best calorie-burning and beneficial workouts out there. It engages multiple muscles at once, thereby benefiting the core strength of your body. That’s not all. Apart from burning the fat around your abdomen area, it also works by giving you an improved posture, flexibility as well as a tighter tummy.
How to do Planks: Place your forearms and elbows on the ground below the shoulders. Arms should be about shoulder-width distance.
Ground the toes into the floor and squeeze the glutes to stabilize the body.
Ensure your back is straight. Maintain this position for 20 – 30 seconds.
How to do Side Planks: Lie sideways on the floor with your right hand folded on the ground.
Lift your body into a plank position supported by your right hand. Position yourself so legs straight keeping your abdominals engaged and your feet stacked.
Hold for about 20 seconds. Repeat on the other side. That completes one rep. Repeat 10 – 20 reps.
How to do Hip plank twist: Start out on a plank position. Keeping your belly muscles tucked in (you should be able to breathe), twist your hip slightly on one side until it is close to touching the ground. Slowly get back into plank position.Â
Twist your hip to the other side until it is close to touching the ground. Then slowly resume the plank position. This completes one rep. Repeat 20 – 30 reps
Lunges
This is specifically to help you build up your strength. Lunges are quite effective in terms of strengthening legs and buttocks. Lunges target large muscle groups of your lower body; this boosts your metabolism and helps you lose weight much faster.Â
How to do Lunges: Stand tall with feet hip-width apart. Take a big step forward with your right leg and start to shift weight forward so the heel hits the floor first.
Lower body until right thigh is parallel to the floor and right shin is vertical If mobility allows, lightly tap left knee to the ground while keeping weight in the right heel.
Slowly move back up to the starting position. Repeat on the other side. That completes one rep, do 20 – 30 reps.

How to do Side lunges: Stand with your legs slightly apart wider than shoulder-distance. Toes pointed forward.
Shift your body weight to one side (right) causing your right knee to bend until it reaches a 90-degree angle and the other leg is straight. Glutes are pressing back behind you. Return to center and switch sides.
Diet
Yes! Your biology teacher wasn’t lying when she told you, you are what you eat. The saying couldn’t be truer when it comes to enhancing your feminine curves.
Once you start working out you will, of course, burn some calories and that means you need to replace them in a healthy way. Keep in mind you don’t need excess fat. If you want to gain weight you need to eat more than you burn and if you want to just tone your body and maintain your weight you need to replace unhealthy fat with healthy fat.
Rather than having your meals at one go in huge quantities to rival Mt. Everest you might want to break it down in several tiny servings spread across the day.
It goes without saying that you need to avoid snacks and junk food. C’mon, you don’t need it so let it go Jane. Instead replace them with eggs, bananas, oatmeal, chicken, fish fruits, veggies, and dairy.Â
I can’t look at myself in the mirror if I forgot to mention Water. Yes! Water is life and is extremely important in your journey to get that fucking sexy look. Exercising results in sweating which in layman terms is your body losing out on fluids you like a car tank when it runs low you need to fill it, baby. Drink more water before and after work out.
Rest
As I said, a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step so you won’t get your dream body in a fortnight. While working out remember to also rest and have adequate sleep. Overworking only damages the progress. After you are well rested you will have the energy to pick up where you left yesterday and keep going so set aside not only time for exercising but time for resting as well.
