3. The clothes you wear can deceive eye as to your true size, and thus make you look thinner:

a. Don’t use clothes that are too colourful, as that will only attract more eyes on areas that you really would like to hide. Chose black or dark blue clothes, as they can make you look up to 5 kilos thinner.

b. When it comes to skirt length, for those who want to to look a bit thinner than they really are, you should choose knee length skirts. Shorter ones will show off just how fat those legs are, and longer ones accentuate thick ankles.

c. Another little trick for men and women is to use vertical stripes. That can apply to trousers, skirts, shirts, dresses, blouses etc. On blouses and shirts, use buttons, because they create a vertical line. The same effect can be reproduced with long zippers.

d. Loosen pockets, and avoid filling them up. Full pockets add bulk, not visual effect you are looking for when you are trying to look thinner.

4. Always be aware of position of your body and your posture. A correct position can make you appear up to three centimetres taller than you are.

Keep in mind these tricks and work on your illusion of looking thinner. Also, you can use your imagination to discover more!

The best way, and usually most assuring is to ask a local gym instructor on which home exercise equipment to choose. Sometimes, he or she would recommend correct type depending on your current muscle tone and frame. There are times that a consumer would have to go though a budget and resort in purchasing used home exercise equipment. Make sure that frame and structure is still in good condition with minimal to no rust forming at welded areas and you can always repaint scratched areas to make it look brand new. If equipment suffered from irreparable damage, like broken gauges and loose wiring from a treadmill for instance, ask your local gym instructor and see if he can repair it for you. Sometimes, welding is often needed in sections of home exercise equipment when joints are unstable. This applies especially in bench press tables that accidents often occur when support bar can not hold barbell and would result to serious injury and almost certainty of death.

Whatever kind of home exercise equipment you choose, it is very important to know how much exercise you can get out of it to get that eye-pleasing form that you want to achieve this summer.
