STAGE 2 • DETAILS • DEFINITION • TONING

Stage 2 – Super Effective Workouts for Toning, Shaping, and Reducing Cellulite Visibility

Once we have built a foundation, in Stage 2 we begin to sculpt. Here, the goal is no longer just strength. Here we seek detail, definition, better circulation, and denser musculature.

What do we change in Stage 2?

In this stage, we increase volume, improve muscle activation, and seek controlled execution. We work in ranges of 10–15 repetitions, with a controlled eccentric phase and failure in the last set.

The goal is:

• Better muscle tone
• Denser glutes
• Smoother appearance of thighs
• Improved lymphatic circulation
