TONE YOUR BUM & THIGHS


Jumping squats

I will say it again and again and again, the jumping squat is one of the best ways to develop your legs and butt



The jumping squat works your entire lower body as well as your abs. It also gets your heart rate up which means you will boost your fitness and lose some fat at the same time as developing your legs.


And when I say it works your whole lower body I mean it works your WHOLE lower body. The day after your first set of jumping squats you will know what I mean. Your hamstrings and quadriceps will be so stiff you struggle to walk, your calf muscles will be tight and sore and your glutes(The gluteus maximus (or glutæus maximus) is the largest and most superficial of the three gluteal muscles. It makes up a large portion of the shape and appearance of the buttocks) will be all worn out. It is an amazing exercise that every woman should get in to.

Jumping squats
Keeping your back straight with your feet hip-width apart and arms out straight in front of you, jump up in the air, land and bend down into a squat. Hold for a couple of seconds then jump again. Try to do as many as you can in a minute. This requires a lot of energy, so it works your cardio system as well as strengthening your legs.

English Edification Enrichment (12)

What is the meaning and origin of the expression "once in a blue moon"? When something happens "once in a blue moon" it happens very rarely. Here are a few examples, * My brother George lives in Russia. I see him once in a blue moon. * We have visitors once in a blue moon. * How often does Tendulkar come to office? Once in a blue moon. There are several explanations as to the origin of this expression. According to scientists, whenever a volcano erupts, the sulphur and dust particles that are thrown up into the atmosphere often cause the moon to appear blue for some time. When the volcano on Krakatoa (an island between Java and Sumatra) exploded in 1883, rocks were hurled thirty miles high into the air and dust from the volcano fell nearly three thousands miles away. After this eruption the moon looked blue for several days. Luckily for us, volcanoes don't erupt every day, so a blue moon continues to be a rare phenomenon. Another explanation offered by scholar...

Origin of "scot-free"

English Edification Enrichment- What is the meaning and origin of "scot-free"? When you say that someone escaped "scot-free" what you are implying is that the individual escaped a tricky situation without being punished or harmed. The expression carries with it a sense of dissatisfaction. You feel that the individual deserved to be punished, but he wasn't. Here are a few examples. * His father is a politician and so he got off scot-free. * Sanjay got away scot-free because people refused to testify. * Renu made sure that Jyothi didn't get off scot-free. Many people think that the "scot" used in the expression refers to the people in Scotland. It doesn't. "Scot" is the old word for what we today call "tax". So in the old days when you got off "scot-free" you got off "tax-free". In other words, you escaped without having to pay your taxes. Nowadays, it's only politicians who manage to escape scot-free!

Hair styling tips 2 (PERMS)

PERMS Assorted Perm Tips 1.Shampoo gently with a shampoo specially created for permed hair. Aggressive shampoos or scrubbing can cause early relaxation. 2.Condition the hair with conditioners specially made for permed hair. Permed hair has varying porosity - ordinary conditioners may over or under condition hair. 3.As perm grows out, spray a volumizing product or gel at the roots and blow dry at the scalp to create added lift. 4.Do not wrap in a towel turban when you get out of the shower with wet hair. The added friction can knot and damage vulnerable wet hair. Instead, carefully blot hair dry. 5.Don't brush hair when wet.
