Really, I'll have to try that, get her all oiled up...yeah this is going to be fun.

That makes sense to me . Were her legs always perfect or did she start the deep tissue work because of the cellulite ?
How could it not help ?
If someone has their diet in check and trains hard I would think a deep tissue massage has got to make a difference .

Her legs were perfect when I met her. She would tell me when she needed to go get her legs massaged to break up the cellulite. She would never get it bad because she was always in good shape, but I think it's almost inevitable for them to develop it at some point.

unfortunately there is no cure for cellulite.... she'd have to get to a body-fat level that would be really difficult to maintain to see a significant improvement, and even then there are no guarantees.

Ok here is 2 days of her diet.

day 1. 6:20am-8 am. 40oz coffee black
8am. 3 whole eggs in flour tortilla
12 pm. Grilled chicken sand with lettuce tomatoe
16 oz water
2 pm...............10 oz black coffee
6....................1/2 lb ground turkey romaine salad
6:30....workout. Squats 3x10@45lbs, deads 3x10@95lbs
Bridges (45lbs on belly, upward thrust)3x10
Dead lift/squat. 3x10@95lbs. 24 oz water. Continued

......day 2
6:30-7 am 20 oz black coffee
8am. Turkey ground 3 whole egg in flour tortilla
8am. 10oz black coffee
12. Bowl lettuce with cheese hard boiled egg 2 tbsp sunflower seeds (1serving misc veg)
3:30. 10 oz chai tea (sweetened product) lemon bar
4pm. 32oz water
6pm. 8oz ground beef patty 12oz whole milk
she does do insanity 2-3x/ week and that workout regimen x3/week doesn't change much
