Justin Timberlake had a hit song talking about how he was bringing sexy back. As people get older and life’s responsibilities become more varied, it becomes more challenging to keep up the sexy youthful image that we once had as a youngster. People are easily tempted to go for cosmetic surgery or diet fads. Some of these work, but nothing beats the natural look. You want to be the best version of yourself possible. And you don’t need to go under the knife to do it. Here are some things that you can do to improve your overall posture and sexiness for a healthier and more vibrant you!


Bulk up

This will resonate with the guys, but it will strike fear into the hearts of women whose first image of bulking up is looking like a bodybuilder. You don’t have to look like a beast. You just need to look healthy. For men, size conveys security and confidence. The more muscle size you can develop, the more of a presence you will have when interacting with people. To build size, you need to do heavy weight training that will break down the muscle. Ideally, you will do compound training to work out multiple muscle groups at the same time. Women just need to work out enough to tone their muscles. So it will often involve lifting weights that will trigger muscle growth via hypertrophy training. Alternatively, women could focus on doing plyometrics training, which will utilise their body weight to execute power movements while triggering subtle muscle growth.


Get your skin glowing by doing cardio.

If you want to have radiant, younger looking skin, then doing cardiovascular exercise is a must. The New York Times featured a story in which scientist conducted a study with people in different age groups to see what the effect was on their skin. You can make use of cardio machines such as the elliptical, treadmill, rowing machine or bike to improve your overall fitness.  


Get perky.

This applies to both men and women. Having your chest protrude forward conveys confidence and is attractive. You want to be able to protrude your chest forward subconsciously so that you will have a good posture. You can train your body to develop this by doing the following exercises.

Cable rows

Where you use the machine to pull resistants weights to develop the muscular strength and development in your back.


Deadlifts

Where you use the Olympic barbell with resistance weights to develop muscular strength and development in your back, traps, legs and forearms. This is a full body movement.

Chest press

Where you will use the barbell to press resistance weights forward and develop your chest muscles. For men and women, it is important to develop the upper chest muscle. This exercise can also be varied with dumbbells. The opportunity to bring sexy back is in your hands. Time to firm up and say goodbye to sagginess for good. In a few months time, you will be radiating positive energy with a brand new confident posture.
