Mama Mio

For us beauty is all about CONFIDENCE - when you Feel Good you Look Good.

What we have noticed as we trundle through our Mama Mio world is that every woman has a bit of their body that they would love to change. That bit that you think 'if only my tummy were better I would feel good about myself'. We call these Roadblocks and they are our personal bugbears; our little obsessions that stand in the way of feeling confident. The reality is it takes a lot less effort to actually make the change to your 'bad bit' than the effort spent beating yourself up over it. We wanted to give you the tools to make that change. To take control and sort it out! Hence the Bootcamp Kits were born.

When developing Bootcamp for Tummies we wanted to create a kit which was the perfect product mix to help the tone, texture and tightness of the skin. And because true beauty is not just skin deep, we have combined our perfect products with the perfect abdominal exercises, created by celebrity ab-rehab guru Julie Tupler. By improving the tone, fat content and texture of your skin and also strengthening and reshaping the muscle structure that supports the skin, the results will be more dramatic.

Attention! (Cue Sergeant Major voice…) This bit is very important! We need you to commit to a 30 day programme to make a visible and lasting difference to your tummy. And for those commitment-phobes amongst you, we know we had to make it really easy for you and take away all of your excuses.

1. It only takes four minutes a day. No matter how time starved, we can all find 4 minutes.

2. It is very easy to follow – add one additional set each week. The key is to do them right (the exercise leaflet explains this very very clearly.

3. No equipment required and you can actually do them anywhere – in the car , at your desk…

4. You will see results. Do not cheat and at the end of 30 days you will look better, feel better and feel more confident.

And if you can do that – what else can you do? Yes sir!

We wanted to create a kit that is the perfect product mix to help the tone, texture and tightness of your skin and, truly, this will. And because real beauty is not just skin deep, we have combined our perfect products with the perfect tummy exercises. By improving the tone and texture of your skin and also strengthening and toning the muscle structure that supports the skin, results will be considerably more dramatic.

SKINCARE

Tummy Toner Skin Tightener has been especially created to improve the actual texture of your skin; because tight, toned, smooth surfaced skin always looks so much better.

Get Waisted Body Shaper is an amazing slimming cream that works by helping stimulate your body’s production of beta-endorphins, increasing Lipolysis in the fat cells within your skin. Lipolysis is the breakdown of fat stored in fat cells which actually reduces the size of your fat cells.

EXERCISES

Have you ever noticed that however slim some women are, they still have a little pot belly? And that however many crunches you do, this extra bit of wobble never goes away? This kit is the foolproof, permanent solution to learn exactly WHY you have that wobbly paunch and exactly HOW to get rid of it. We have worked with ab-rehab guru Julie Tupler because we believe she has found the answer to flattening your tummy for once and for all. She has identified a problem most women suffer with and didn’t even realize. But even better she has a quick and easy way to fix the problem.

The problem is that you may have a diastisis recti and the solution is to work the Transverse muscle using Julie’s very special Tupler Technique.

Most women, especially those who have had children, have a gap between their abdominal muscles that can be felt beneath the belly button, running up to your ribs and right down to the pubic bone. This gap, called diastisis recti, used to be covered in muscle, holding everything tucked up behind it. Now that it has separated, there is no ‘corset of muscle’ to hold you in tight and flat. This gap in the abdominal muscle is also often a reason for back pain. You need to knit that muscle back together in order to create a strong core, a ‘corset’ that holds you in. Crunches are not the answer and, in fact, can make the bulge worse. The Tupler Technique is a very simple way of reknitting those muscles; quickly, safely and correctly.

Julie Tupler RN is credited by thousands of women for helping them restore a strong core, flatten their tummies and redefine their waist. Once you have done these easy exercises for a week, you will see and feel the difference and commit to doing your Tuplers every day for life.

We know that time is short, so follow these super-easy steps to be on your way to flatter, sexier abs in 30 days. To maximize the results we recommend you are warm when you apply the skincare (so apply immediately after exercising/showering) and do follow the skincare applications in the order below.

Step 1 (once a day) Your 4 minute exercise programme. Follow the instruction card for the two no-nonsense exercises: The Flattener Five and the Pulse 100. We recommend that you actually write ‘DO MY BOOTCAMP TUPLERS’ on a little PostIt note and pop one on your windscreen, computer screen, even your TV screen. We all need that extra nudge!

Step 2 (once a day) Tummy Toner skin tightener - one to two pumps will be plenty, massage into midriff area from below boobs to above pubes, all the way round to your back. Entertain yourself for 15 seconds as it sinks in.

Step 3 (once a day) Get Waisted body shaper - massage two pumps on top of Tummy Toner. Using clockwise strokes (to help sluggish digestion – another cause of bloated bellies) in exact same area as Tummy Toner.

If you stick with this dosage you will have ample for the 30 days. If you feel the need to excess pump, we won't tell you off (we are prone to doing the same!) but you many need to restock towards the end of your 30 days. Fear not, every Mama Mio skincare product is available as a single purchase.

FAQs

OK, so I have completed my 30 day Bootcamp – what next?  If you have really committed and done your exercises/skincare regime every day without fail, I can guarantee your waist is trimmer, your tummy feeling much smoother and definitely tauter. Well done!

Now why on earth would you leave it there? What else can you tackle? You are in control now. You have made a difference to your body that makes you feel better and more confident – that was our goal. Of course we would recommend that you continue with the skincare and exercise principles as part of your daily routine now.

It is a funny thing with women and bodycare/exercise – we always think – ‘Yikes! Bikini beach moment coming up; better tackle that tummy wobble for the fortnight leading up to my holiday.’ And then we relax back into apathy for the rest of the year. And yet we would never think that way about eyecream or highlights. No way, man. Women are used to thinking about ‘maintenance’ rather than repair and this is how we would love you to approach your bodycare regime from now on. Keep that Bootcamp Tuplers Post-It note on your computer and when you are chatting on Facebook – just do the Flattener Five. Tuplers are exercises for life – which means they fit into your life; and if you keep doing them, they will work for life.

You can buy the Mama Mio high performance skincare as singles anytime you like. And now you know the exercises off by heart, the only discipline is to make sure you do not take shortcuts.
