Expose your body to cold conditions to drop some weight

YOU may be holding out hope for a summer heat wave, but the hottest way to get in shape this summer is to keep your cool.

Forget hot yoga, stifling gyms and bubbling hot tubs, the most effective way of shedding body fat and boosting your metabolism is to stay in cold temperatures as often as you can.

It’s a trend that has emerged from cutting-edge scientific investigation, but which is so effective that it is taking the fitness world by storm and has attracted a number of A-lister advocates who claim that it is their secret weapon to a super-toned and bump-free bikini body.
