Exercises for drooping skin

Has anyone been given an idea of great exercises to assist with the drooping skin everywhere?

I was told that the likelihood of skin "bouncing back" is determined by genetics. Most of the time drooping is going to happen because of the rapid weight loss. When you lose weight quickly, it is difficult for the body to compensate with skin tightening. An individual's age is also a factor and the amount of weight that you lose. (I'm fearful of this myself but I won't let it stop me, that's for sure lol) I'm sure that you can do some toning exercises that will help such as lifting light weights. I try to incorporate light weights into my cardio. I use 2-5 lb weights on the treadmill. You don't have to do cardio with them though. You can simply lift. Do you have pinterest? If so there are a ton of exercises for wls patients. If you don't have it, I recommend that you sign up. I have found so much information that it is unbelievable.

Take Care! :)

We can tone up the muscles, but stretched skin doesn't go away without plastic surgery. Some people are lucky and young(lol) and their skin reduces somewhat, but there us no exercise to get rid of the sags. A number of members talked about wraps awhile back but the consensus was that effects are temporary. Sorry.
