Looking for that Pippa Middleton Perfect Bum? Find it on Body In Balance today

Looking for that Perfect Bum like Pippa Middleton? Abbey Clancy and Tess Daly are just two celebrity fans of renowned Pilates instructor Doug Robertson, who can help you achieve that perfect bum and great back strength.

Doug can be seen exclusively on Body In Balance, SKY Channel 275.

Doug Robertson is a personal trainer turned pilates expert. He developed the Perfect Bum techniques over the last six years from his work in therapeutic exercise. He uses the exercises to stabilize and re-balance the body.

Abbey Clancy has said “I watch… A Perfect Bum With Doug Robertson, religiously. After I’ve fed Sophia, me and my mum work out to it in the kitchen. …I do feel fab.”

As celebrity fan Tess Daly also says on her blog “I’ve also discovered theperfectbum.com, which has a fab 10-week Pilates course that concentrates on toning bottoms and the tops of thighs. It’s £60 well spent in my book and perfect preparation for summer’s shorter skirts.”

The DVD of The Perfect Bum can be purchased via the Body In Balance website – www.bodyinbalance.tv.

Is it Snake Oil? – Interactive Infographic

It’s hard to know what’s good and what’s guff, should you be taking vitamin supplements? Will my anti-oxident rosehip cranberry echinacia lavender infusion cure my indecision or should I plump for a green tea? Will that weight loss suppliment advertised on Facebook actually work? Afterall, it is on Facebook, so it must be true?! There’s so much confusing and conflicting information what we really need is someone to take all the evidence and put it into some sort of pretty picture.
If there’s one thing the people behind Information is Beatiful have proved that interactive graphics definately improve my attention span.
The creators have this to say about the image and information they used: “This image is a “balloon race”. The higher a bubble, the greater the evidence for its effectiveness. But the supplements are only effective for the conditions listed inside the bubble. We only considered large, human, randomized placebo-controlled trials in our data scrape – wherever possible. No animal trials. No cell studies..”
This visualisation generates itself from this Google Doc. So when new research comes out, they should be able to quickly update the data and regenerate the image. The spreadsheet also references the source of the research; if you’re interested in that sort of thing.
