BottomSlim | What It Means To Have A Pear-Shaped Body

Venus of Willendorf - The Body of A Goddess
Due to the world’s obsession with the Kardashian big buns, most pear-shaped women have absolutely no complaints about their bodies, at least until they gain weight. Have you ever been told you have a pear-shaped body? Do you know what that actually means?
What is a Pear Shape?
The pear shape is a term loosely used to describe a body fat distribution that is localised to the lower half. This essentially means that the vast majority of fat tends to be stored in the hips/buttocks, thighs, and legs. Pear-shaped women generally have slim upper bodies with narrow shoulders, small busts, and tiny waists.
When it comes to having a pear shape, weight gain is generally fit into two classifications. First, there is a build-up of subcutaneous fat, which is located just underneath the skin. There is also an overgrowth of fat cells within two additional “reserve” fat layers that are situated just beneath the subcutaneous fat. These multiple layers of fat cells greatly contribute to the second problem: cellulite.
Lower-body fat accumulation is largely a confidence-killing concern for pear-shaped women. The good news is, unlike visceral (belly) fat, neither subcutaneous nor reserve fat are significantly related to the development of obesity-related diseases.
What Factors Contribute to a Pear Shape?
Having a pear shape is closely linked to genetics; however, several other factors play a role including age, gender, pregnancy, hormonal status, and lifestyle behaviours. In general, pear shape in a young woman develops due to a predominance of estrogen, a female hormone. However, as women age and approach menopause, the levels begin to decline and many notice a change in body shape.
And then there are those lifestyle-related behaviors, which play a huge role in the manifestation of the pear shape. Regardless of how your body fat is genetically distributed the three factors that have the most profound impact on your total body fat are
1.        Daily calorie intake
2.       Nutritional quality of the food consumed
3.        Amount of calories burned on a daily basis.
How Can You Optimise Your Pear Shape?
A build-up of subcutaneous fat is closely linked to physical activity (or lack thereof) while over-development of reserve fat is often associated with dietary behaviours. As such, with the right combination of exercise - cardiovascular (cardio) activity coupled with resistance (weight) training as well as a sensible diet are the optimum way to enhance your curvy appearance.
There is of course other options geared towards enhancing your pear-shaped figure. You may visit our website for insight into the BottomSlim experience.

BottomSlim | Cellulite and Stubborn Stretch Marks

Here’s more advice specifically for women, starting with the question we get asked often: How do you get rid of cellulite, stubborn fats, and stretch marks naturally and safely? These days almost all women have cellulite to one degree or another, and it’s generally considered a blight–a sign of a lazy, unhealthy lifestyle. Ironically, women who exercise or have a mass build-up of muscles can see cellulite and stubborn stretch marks start to form. Even fit women get affected with stretch marks Eunice Annabel was one such customer who was a victim of the ugly stretch marks around her thighs and butt areas. Eunice had been active in competitive cheerleading all through her secondary school days. Having to play the base teammate who throws and catches teammates when they are doing complex routines, she had developed strong muscles below her torso. However, the moment she stopped cheerleading activities, she shrunk in size and along came the stretch marks. So what happen...

BOTTOMSLIM | BAD EXPERIENCE TO LOSE WEIGHT THROUGH STARVATION

Shy away from starvation when dieting Weight loss requires a lot of commitment and effort with respect to dieting and exercising. The aim of these two mechanisms is to reduce the calorie intake as the body burns its excess fat. However, even though these two methods help maintain a fit lifestyle they are not the quickest method of shedding off some excess weight. It is easy for someone to give up or backslide to normal eating habits. Nevertheless, some people look for alternate methods of reducing their calorie intake. Starvation is one of these methods. Starvation regulates the intake of calories to the body and speeds up the weight loss process. However, this weight will return when you continue with your normal eating schedule. Therefore, starvation is a quick weight loss option, but not an effective one. This read will shed some light on starvation as a weight loss mechanism. REASONS WHY STARVATION IS NOT AN EFFECTIVE WEIGHT LOSS PLAN It has less potential in compariso...
