DIY Workout Enhancer Lotion - jar of solid lotion, melts on contactOne of my trainer friends gifted me a waist trimmer wrap to keep me inspired with my fitness goals. It's been a wonderful addition to my exercise routine as it's not just to "trim the waist", but to keep good posture and helps you sweat a bit extra. The key benefit for me is that the lotion you wear with the waist wrap has been helping with my uneven tummy area after losing 125 pounds. Loose skin, stretch marks, and bumps are fought with the nourishing fatty acids and anti-inflammatory benefits of this lotion. I see a noticeable difference using the wrap over the lotion on my tummy when I exercise or clean the house. (I have been using this for months.) The problem is that the lotion it comes with is commercially $30, and it also contains petroleum jelly, which I'm not the biggest fan of. Now I make my own all-natural and much-cheaper version and it works great. You don't have to have the commercial waist trimmer either, you can use any kind of cloth belt or wrap alongside this lotion.
