Tone up your body in 1 month: Two days to go

Body Tone-Up Plan: Two Days To Go
Average rating: 3 out of 5 star rating

Make the most of what you've got rather than hankering after what you don't have. Your posture counts for a lot - keeping your shoulders down and not hunching them up will automatically make you inches taller.

Avoid giving yourself a double chin when looking down and tucking your chin onto your chest; instead, keep your chin lifted and parallel to the floor. Pulling your stomach in makes it appear flatter. If you pull your tummy button back towards your spine while bending over, you'll work your muscles hard as you force your stomach to work against gravity.

Pilates: Simple Routines For Home, Work & Travel by Alan Herdman £9.99, or £6.49 from Amazon shows you how to be aware of your posture in everyday situations.
