BIC Soleil $50 Prize Pack Giveaway

August 1, 2011

I love and loathe the summer routine. I’ll be honest, as a mom of 3 married for (almost) 10 years, my legs don’t look supermodel fabulous and smooth 365 days of the year. In fact, one might even say that in the winter months I’m kept that much warmer by my…insulation on my legs!

Still, in the warm summer months, I want to look great (and less like a Saskquatch) so the summer shaving routine is a must – every second day here. BIC Soleil premium shavers come with 3 blades or 4 flexible blades, are easy to hold and maneuver, and leave legs as smooth as a baby’s bum! The next step, of course, is helping those legs look even more fabulous by toning them for the summer months (and beyond).

One of Toronto’s best known fitness instructors, Eva Redpath, offers these tips for fabulous legs:

1) Sautes
What it targets: Glutes, quads, inner thighs, calves, core.
Exercise: Standing with heels together, toes turned out (dance 1st position) and hands on your waist. Bend knees, and jump both feet diagonally forward, landing wider then hip distance apart, knees at 90-degree angles facing the same directions as the toes, and inline with the ankles (dance 2nd position) Reach hands down, and touch fingertips to the floor. Bend Knees and jump back to starting position.
Reps: Repeat 16 times

2) Plies
What it targets: Inner thighs, quads, glutes.
Exercise: Stand with feet wider than hip distance apart, toes pointing outward, hands on hips. Bend legs into the depth of the plie so that your quad, knee and shins form a 90- degree angle. Make sure the knees stay over the ankles. Hold for three counts and slowly stretch to standing for one count.
Reps: Repeat 16 times

3) Rises
What it targets: Calves, balance, core stability.
Exercise: Stand with your feet shoulder width apart, feet slightly turned out, placing your hands on the hips for balance. Raise your body onto the balls of your feet. Hold and slowly lower down making sure to keep ankles inline with your arches when pressing onto the ball of foot.
Reps: Repeat 16 times
