How To Get A Body Like Jessica Alba?

So It's Time To Reduce Body Fat

If you are like many people working out, you probably have a bit more body
fat than you would like. There are tons of guys in gyms that lift hard during
the year to gain mass, but they also have put on a bit of fat during this time.
If you want a pleasing physique, you are going to need to get down to a
respectable body fat level.

CLICK HERE TO GET A BODY LIKE JESSICA ALBA

Tip Number 1: Continue to Lift Heavy During This
Dieting Period

The common mistake that many people make is that they want to "lift for
high reps" to tone the muscles. Tone is mainly caused by having a low body fat
percentage, not the type of lifting you are performing. The reason you want to
continue to lift heavy and make strength gains is that you want to make sure
your body holds on to that hard earned muscle. If you lift light for high reps,
your body doesn't have any reason to keep that muscle mass.

Tip Number 2: Reduce Body Fat at A Slow
Rate

Give yourself plenty of time to get lean. Many people decide they want to
get in shape two months before summer or a vacation. I recommend at least 3-4
months, if you want to get super-lean without losing muscle mass. The slower you
reduce body fat, the less likely you will lose muscle mass. This makes sense
because in order to lose body fat you need to eat less calories than what you
burn and you need to perform a significant amount of cardio. In order to drop
fat quickly, you have to go too low in calories to maintain the current amount
of muscle you have. You will lose muscle mass. If you create a slight calorie
deficit and lose only 1 to 2 pounds a week, you are much better off.

Tip Number 3: Perform High Intensity Interval
Training

High Intensity Interval Training is the most effective form of cardio to
burn body fat without losing muscle. To see the evidence, let's compare these
two types of cardio in a real world situation. Sprinters have much more muscle
than marathon runners. Sprinters perform a quick burst of effort, followed by a
period of resting. Marathon runners train using the "slow and steady cardio"
that is recommended by most trainers. I don't know about you, but I would rather
look like a sprinter! When you hit cardio, alternate intense sprinting type
efforts for 30 seconds followed by a minute or so of a less intense effort.
Continue this pattern for 15 minutes. You will burn body fat while keeping that
hard earned muscle.

Tip Number 4: Eat a "Realistic" Strict Diet

If you try to go too strict on your diet, you won't be able to maintain
your diet for very long. My rule of thumb is this...I try to make sure that at
least 75% of my meals are really clean and low calorie. If I do decide to eat a
bit junky, I will try to make sure it is after a long and hard workout. Also I
will eat pretty low carbs during the day before my workout, to maximize the
amount of fat burned in my workout. If you have too much carbs in your system
while working out, your body will burn carbs instead of the fat off your body.
This really makes a big difference in your quest to reduce body fat.

Celebrity Trends in Bags For the 2009 Season

Celebrity Trends in Bags For the 2009 Season
By Megan Hazel

How is a girl to keep up with the hottest trends in bags for the 2009 season? It depends, of course, on whether we are talking summer or winter season. It also depends heavily on what the stars and celebs are carrying. Why? Because divas and celebrities know just what to carry and, depending on the season, occasion, and outfit, when to carry it.

Nicole Richie prefers Hermes, and particularly the Hermes Birkin bag. While not the signature orange Hermes is known for, this bag is a little darker in orange color but does still carry the typical Hermes hardware in gold and the same leather features. Don't plan on rushing out and grabbing up these bags in various colors just yet, though. One of these alone costs about $17,000.00.

Another bag that is making headlines this season is Yves Saint Laurent's Muse, and many stars still carry it on their arm from last season. The younger, starlet-type stars seem to prefer this bag, the likes of Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba, Paris Hilton and Kate Moss. This bag is such a classic it is not likely to be leaving the fashion scenes any time soon.

Although lots of celebs are into designing their own bags these days, these same celebrities would not be caught dead actually carrying one of their own knock-off designer bags on their arm! Jessica Simpson, for example, has an extensive line of handbags but is spotted this season with her black and grey Goyard bag, which are probably ten times what she charges for her own designs. Not only that, but her Goyard has been seen monogrammed with her initials so you know she feels pretty attached to it!

Always popular in Europe and new to the States in the last couple years is the line by Gerard Darel. Hayden Panettiere and Katherine Heigl are proud owners as is Angelina Jolie. The sweater knit satchel by Gerard Darel, which is a casual bag and available at Neiman Marcus, is one of the favorites and has been for a season or two. It is surprisingly affordable and comes in at around $400.00.

The Andrea Brueckner Tierney City bag is still popular and still seen being carried by the beautiful Jessica Alba not at a black tie ball, but simply walking down the street. As the name implies, however casual, this bag is much more chic and citified than the above mentioned sweater bag. It is a fairly large bag and more like a tote, running at about $700.

As for other large bags in style this season, the Louis Vuitton travel duffels are all the rage lately. Kim Kardashian seems to like the Louis Vuitton Graffiti Keepall 50, which is from the Stephen Sprouse collection. It comes in a bright fuchsia to match her flamboyant personality and also comes in orange and neon green. Kanye West travels a bit heavier with his Louis Vuitton Keepall 55, which is in camouflage and also pretty tough not to spot at the airport! These travel bags cost about $2500.00 apiece, depending on the style and collection.

Angelina Jolie with her whole brood is still keen on the Mommy & Me Bags, although she has been seen carrying sleeker and more sophisticated styles to match her updated look this year. Jennifer Garner has also been seen wearing the braided leather bag from the collection in patent red, which runs about $1700. The little ones have matching bags to wear right along with them, but they are not quite as pricey.

The whole cowboy look has finally gone out of fashion, which should make most of us pretty happy. With it, we can say goodbye to the saddle bags, although bags with fringes are still in vogue and have been seen on the likes of hot rising stars like Vanessa Hudgens. Specifically, the JJ Winters fringe bag is a hot item and she prefers it for a number of different outfits. Most recently she has been spotted wearing the grey suede version. This bag is fairly reasonable in the $300.00 to $400.00 range.

Bags with top handles are still trendy this season, as classic ladylike bags will never go out of fashion. In fact, most likely due to the recent election, ladylike is very "in" this year! Michelle Obama being a perfect model of elegance and grace, many celebrities are following suit and carrying petite, feminine yet stately bags. Think Chanel, think Christian Dior, just think elegant and graceful! We can thank the popularity of the First Lady for bringing this to the forefront of fashion.

The bags being seen thus far really haven't been too definitive as far as being a summer or winter type bag. They are all fairly easily transferred between seasons. Of course, no one can predict what the stars will bring, or what will be carried on their arms as the year progresses.

Jessica Alba's Breasts- What Size Are They?

Celebrity Breasts-- What Size are They, and Who's Had Plastic Surgery?
By Danna Schneider

Celebrities and Breast Size - They're Not as Naturally Blessed as You Might Think

The obsession over cosmetic perfection and, more recently, breast size, has sparked a rash of Hollywood "upsizing" in the breast department. Who's natural, what cup size are they, and who's had breast surgery? The answers may or may not be surprising. In other words, you might be shocked at just how much a push up bra can deceive to the tune of 1,2 and even three cup sizes!

Celebrities - How they Influence What We Want in a
Breast Size

What determines the size of a full grown woman's breasts? Is it primarily environmental or outside influences, or is it all "in the genes"? The final size of a woman's mature breasts is mostly determined by heredity and can range from very small AA cups to very full EE cups. Breast size varies greatly among women, but the average breast size is a B cup, and all sizes and shapes are normal and healthy, although they may not fit the conventional idea of breast beauty.

For some reason, probably the increasing popularity of breast augmentation surgery and the overwhelming number of female celebrities who are considered sexy who have this breast size, the common perception today is that the perfect breast size is a C cup. See some famous celebrity breast sizes below, and you'll see these famous women are as diverse as the rest of us. Although they may all look like they have C cups in the movies or in videos, you'll see what they've really got without the padding, underwire and inserts!

Celebrity Breast Sizes - Does Their Cup Truly Runneth Over?

Jennifer Lopez breast size: Modest B cup

Angelina Jolie breast size : C cup : Hate to break it to you, but these are probably real. Yes, she is genetic perfection in the form of a waif thin body and large breasts, I'm afraid.

Britney Spears breast size : Modest C cup (when she's not pregnant or is on the slimmer side)

Christina Aguilera breast size : Pre Breast Implants : A cup
Post Breast Implants : Large C cup

Catherine Bell breast size : Large D cup : Not definitive that she has implants, but I suspect she was a fairly busty woman who also had implants, which is why this large breast size looks so natural on her, and yet she doesn't have a whole lot of sagging for such a large size.

Jessica Simpson breast size : Small D cup : Jessica Simpson is another celebrity that has been puzzled over as to whether she has implants. Some "experts" say yes, and some say she's natural. I just want to know how she lost all that weight and didn't lose a bit of breast size. Hmmm...

Jessica Alba breast size : Small B cup : Although Jessica Alba is one of those celebs that has worn many a push up bras and I suspect has also worn gel inserts to change cup size so drastically between films, you can tell she has a natural breast size of about a small B cup. She also has very little body fat, which accounts for her perfectly natural smaller size.

While many of us may not be happy with the appearance of our breasts, it is good to know that they do come in all sizes and shapes, and we can actually improve their appearance - whether it be increasing their size, enhancing the shape and contour of the breast, or adding to the perkiness, firmness and perfect beauty of the female form, if we are not happy with our current breast size and appearance. There are lots of ways to do this. Massage, exercise, supplementation and just an all around good diet are a few of the ways.

It's just good to know that some of the most beautiful celebrities in the world have either had a lot of help from a plastic surgeon in the breast department, or they are not as large as they are made to look on screen. It goes to show that the most important thing is that you are happy with yourself, and feeling beautiful has much more to do with confidence and other areas other than your breasts.

Jessica Alba Has Come a Long Way

Jessica Alba Has Come a Long Way
By Amaryllis Zamora

The world’s sexiest woman of 2007 started on the lowest rung of Hollywood before she achieved her current stardom today. Jessica Alba first appeared on two national TV ads (JC Penney and Nintendo), and then landed the role of Jessica in Nickelodeon’s The Secret World of Alex Mack in 1994. She was also cast as Maya in the first two seasons of Flipper which was shot in Australia. Jessica’s first film appearance was in Camp Nowhere, playing the role of Gail. She later joined in several independent films. She became widely familiar to the masses after playing a part of a snobby high school clique in Never Been Kissed (Drew Barrymore film) and as the female lead in Idle Hands (with Devon Sawa).

Her biggest break, however, was in the sci-fi series Dark Angel. Jessica Alba was personally chosen by the show’s writer/director James Cameron for the role of the genetically-engineered super-soldier Max Guevara, the show’s main character. Her show ran for two seasons then it was cancelled. The good thing was that Jessica received several awards for her turn as Max including Choice Actress in the Teen Choice Awards 2001. After Dark Angel, Jessica starred in varied movie roles: she played Nancy Callahan, an exotic dancer in the cult movie Sin City; she was a dancer-choreographer in the funky dance movie Honey; and as Sue Storm (her most popular role to date) in the hugely successful Fantastic Four and its sequel. Jessica was also seen in Into The Blue, The Ten and Good Luck, Chuck. Her upcoming movies include The Eye (remake of a spectacular Asian horror movie), Awake, Bill, and Sin City 2.

Aside from movies, Jessica Alba is a favorite cover for numerous magazines. Playboy even used her sexy Into The Blue promotional photos in one of their covers! Jessica objected to it, and Hugh Hefner himself apologized to the sexy actress and donated money to her favorite charities. Jessica has graced the March 2006 issue of Playboy and was named as Sex Star of the Year for 2006. She was also among its 25 Sexiest Celebrities. Despite posing for the men’s risqué magazine, Jessica has never done any nude photos (or had a nude movie scene) coz she has a no-nudity clause in her contract.

Anyway, in the website Askmen.com, readers voted Jessica number 1 on the 99 Most Desirable Women list. She is number 2 in Maxim and is FHM’s Sexiest Woman of the World for 2007. She also graced the covers of InStyle and GQ magazines last June 2007. Jessica was chosen as one of People Magazine's annual 100 Most Beautiful People in May 2007. She has also appeared in magazine ads for L'Oreal Studio Line FX Melting Gel and L'Oreal Feria.

How To Go From Fat To Fit - Helpful Advice To Get That Jessica Alba Look

How To Go From Fat To Fit - Helpful Advice To Get That Jessica Alba Look
By Mary Clevenger

Internet searches and tabloid mags are all in basic agreement: One of the sexiest and shapeliest women around is Jessica Alba. Men love to look at her and women want to look like her. Her best feature--(aside from that gorgeous mouth of hers)her tones and shapely butt. And while it may make you mad to see your guy drooling over Jessica's pics, it's time to swallow your envy and start looking for ways to get as fit and sexy as Jessica Alba.

The best way to get started on getting a gorgeous Alba-Ass™, is to start walking! And take every chance you can to get as much walking into your daily routine as you possibly can. If distance isn't a hindrance, try walking to the store. If it's too far, try to park as far from the store entrance as possible. Grab your iPod and start walking (or even jogging) in the park every day. If you belong to a gym, get there every day and use their treadmills(make sure you set a course that has some good inclines). By adding a little bit of walking to your daily routine, you will be well on your way to the sexy and shapely butt you (and your man) have been looking for!

Now, a word of caution-all the exercise in the world won't do a lick of good if you don't change your diet. You could exercise every day, but if your diet is unhealthy and full of fat, you won't be able to change your shape. If you're not sure about which diet to choose, make use of Google or Yahoo and do an internet search. There are dozens of websites out there devoted to helping you lose weight and get healthy. Once you find one that is a good fit for you, stick with it. Starting and stopping weight loss plans will not help you in your quest for a sexy celeb-worthy shape!

Good Luck and Have Fun!

Jessica Alba and Her Shoes

Jessica Alba and Her Shoes
By Priyanka Arora

Though Jessica Alba is now a new mother, she has always been seen by critics as one of the sexiest and most stylish celebrities in Hollywood. She particularly loves filling her closets with shoes for every occasion. She has pairs and pairs of shoes from designers like Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik, Christian Louboutin, Prada and even Steve Madden. Like most women, Jessica Alba has a flair for making sure that her feet would always be ready for whatever she goes through. Here are a couple of things that would help you out in choosing shoes that your feet would love.

1. Shop at the end of your day. This is to make sure that you get the best fit for your feet because a lot of us have feet that tend to swell during late afternoons or early evenings.

2. Try on different shoe sizes and styles. This is to make sure that you found the perfect pair of shoes that is comfortable and stylish. Make your every penny well spent.

3. Comfort over Style. This is to make sure that you would not end up with distorted muscles, blisters, knee injuries and back problems. Shoes need to be comfortable otherwise, you would not be able to have fun.

4. Choose a neutral color. This is so that you can mix and match your shoes with any given outfit and you would get your money?s worth.

5. Buy at discounted rates and prices. This would entail you to get two shoes at the price of one.

6. Choose and shop for the correct size. Do not fool yourselves by buying a shoe size that is not right for you just to up your self esteem.

Make sure you give your feet the respect and attention it deserves. After all, they are your buddies wherever you may go. The least you can do is make sure that they are treated well and comfortably by giving them the perfect pair of shoes.

Celebrity Tattoos - Jessica Alba

Celebrity Tattoos - Jessica Alba
By Ashley M Ford

I will admit I really don't recall every seeing Jessica Alba's tattoos before and come to find out she has at least three that I could find. She has a wrist tattoo that is in the Sanskrit word "Padma" which means lotus flower. In Hinduism, it is the symbol of spiritual development. It is the symbol of the manifestation of beauty and mental purity (the ability to rise above) - for although it has its roots in the mud of ponds and lakes, it raises its flower in immaculate beauty above the surface of the water. She also has a tattoo of a daisy with a ladybug on it on the back of her neck and a bow on her lower back. I could not find a suitable picture of her neck tattoo, so you will just have to take my word that she does indeed have one back there.

I do find this rather interesting that Jessica could have these tattoos in these fairly noticeable places and practically get away without hardly any people noticing that she even has three tattoos. Which I think is genius. So if you are wanting to get a tattoo and don't want to it be too noticeable then maybe you should follow Jessica Alba's footsteps and get your tattoos in the places that she has them.

Jessica did open up about her latest tattoo which is of a ladybug and daisy on her neck. She said that her mom, aunt and her all went out and got tattoos one day as a "bonding experience." And all three of them got different ladybug tattoos.
