Want to tone your Butt? Try these exercises

Yes, lunges and squats are great to shape your butt, but deadlifts can work wonders to lift your booty and scoop the sides of your thighs. The deadlift is a classic weight training exercise and like the pull-up, targets the entire back. What’s more, it works on your hamstrings and makes them flexible. 

If you find deadlift intimidating or have never done them before, here are simple rules for you to follow. Stand with your feet hip-width apart and slightly bend your knees. Make sure you keep your back straight. Lift the bar with your hands slightly lesser than shoulder width (markings on the bar will indicate where you should hold). Now raise the bar slowly till the hip level and then bring it back to your shin. Perform the move squeezing your glutes using your legs, hips and other muscles and not your arms. 

If you have already mastered deadlift, you can try these variations recommended by fitness expert Ganesh Sakpal.

Stiff leg deadlift: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, grasp a barbell. Keep the knees slightly bent (or straight). Lower from the hips and raise the barbell. Maintain a neutral curve in your back. Squeeze through the butt and hamstrings to come back up and repeat. This move is excellent for hamstrings strength and development. Complete 10-16 repetitions of this move.

Romanian deadlift: Keep your feet wide apart. Use the same stance as regular deadlifts but don’t bend your knees. Bend from the hips, and lift the barbell slowly along the thighs without squatting. Stop raising the bar when it is below your knee caps. Hold for a second, lower slowly and come back to start position. It is excellent for hamstrings and glutes. Do two sets of 12 repetitions of the Romanian deadlift. Also, try these exercises to lose weight from your buttocks.

Keep in mind: Avoid these  moves if you have a lower back injury.

TV Beauties that rocked the bikini

It might be monsoons right now but a bevy of beauties from TV have raised temperatures. Check them out!

Not long ago, TV actresses preferred to dress by their onscreen image. However, that is slowly changing and here is proof. In the past six months, we have seen a number of our TV divas in bikinis. The gals have flaunted their hot bodies/vacation pictures with elan. Check out these beauteous babes and tell us whom you found the sexiest!

Sonarika Bhadoria
The lady has moved on from TV to films down South but people still identify her as Parvati. When she posted a snap in a red bikini top and floral sarong chilling on the pristine beaches on the Maldives, she faced a lot of hate mail. People were aghast at how a ‘divine figure’ could pose in a swimsuit. The lady replied them tersely and rightly so.

Mouni Roy
She has millions of followers on Instagram courtesy her gorgeous pictures with her style game bang on. A few days after Sonarika’s controversy, Mouni posted snaps of her Goa holiday. The lady looks cute in the swimsuit that she has matched with a friend. Talk about co-ordination!

Nia Sharma
Voted as one of the sexiest Asian Women on the planet by her followers, Nia Sharma is a total stunner. The lady is not afraid to flaunt her hot body in the most risky outfits. On her recent Dubai break, she posed in a hot pink Victoria’s Secrets bikini and a pale powder blue one-piece swimsuit. Sassy, confident and stylish, Nia rocked the bikini and how!

Jasmin Bhasin
Now, this swimsuit outing really surprised us. We know Jasmin as the drop dead gorgeous Twinkle from Tashan E Ishq but the gal made our jaws drop with her stunning snaps from her Bali holiday. She has flaunted the bikini (black, blue and pink) with aplomb and posted some truly aesthetic and fun pictures. Way to go, girl!

Natasa Stankovic
Remember Natasa Stankovic from Bigg Boss? The Serbian beauty was also seen in the video DJ Wale Babu. The lovely gal has posted bikini pictures from a lovely holiday in Greece and we are totally flat. With the lovely tresses, sun-kissed body and happy smile, she is looking every inch a tropical diva.

Anita Hassanandani
If it’s Maldives, there has to be a bikini. This is the mantra Anita Hassanandani swears by. Check out this bikini picture with her cute husband in Prisma. We were floored in her cute pink avatar in her Bali vacay but this one’s hotter.

You aren't pretty if you don't have the ab crack, according to Instagram

Instagram will have you believe that you ain't pretty if there's no cavity running down your middle.

The internet keeps introducing us to a new body fad every other day. And by chance, if there's a day that sees you wake up full of love for your body, then wait till the time the internet introduces you to a new way of turning that warm fuzzy feeling into hatred.

Have a hard time figuring out whether you are beautiful or not? Why not give any of the body beauty trends a go?

From the thigh gap to the collarbone challenge--the more number of pennies you can place in your collarbone, the prettier you are--body beauty trends change our relationships with our bodies.

And, the newest to play with our minds is the ab crack. The ab crack is a defined line running down the centre of your body that can only be achieved by extreme fitness and according to an article in Elle, "While Ab Cracks vary in depth and definition, all Ab Cracks show us you've been in the gym (sic)."

Yes, they probably show that, but ab cracks only add to the list of unrealistic standards by which people especially a woman's body is judged.

Seriously girls, whichever way your body looks--with or without those fat rolls--when you look in the mirror, this is all you should see!

Tesla Motors introduces two less costly Model S versions

Electric carmaker Tesla Motors Inc said on Thursday it would offer two slightly lower-priced versions of its electric Model S sedan, starting at $66,000 in the US market.

The current Model S starts around $76,000 and is often delivered to customers at a price of about $100,000.

Prices are before tax incentives are applied.

The new versions, the rear-wheel drive Model S 60 and the all-wheel drive Model S 60D, will have slightly less range than the Model S already sold. The Model S 60D starts at $71,000 in the US market.

The newer models will have a range of more than 200 miles, Tesla said in a statement.

The Model S 60 and Model S 60D will be sold with a battery pack with a capacity of 75 kilowatt-hours, but will be limited to a capacity of 60 kWh. Tesla said owners will have the option to get a software upgrade to allow the car to have a capacity of 75 kWh and the longer range it provides.

Analyst Joseph Spak of RBC Capital said the upgrade option will cost $8,500 at purchase or $9,000 after purchase.

A 60 kWh battery has an estimated range of 218 miles for the rear-wheel drive Model S 60 and 210 miles for the Model S 60D, Tesla's website shows.

The upgrade to the 75 kWh battery pack will add about 40 miles of range to each model.

Tesla in 2012 offered a 60 kWh Model S version priced starting about $70,000 but it was discontinued last year. Tesla says the two newer Model S versions offer more capabilities than the discontinued one.

Tesla has said it will produce between 80,000 and 90,000 electric cars in 2016 and that it can make 500,000 by 2018. Most of those are expected to be Model S cars. In the first quarter, Tesla produced 14,820 vehicles, of which 12,851 were Model S and 2,659 were Model X sports utility vehicle.

Tesla plans a new car, the Model 3, which is to be a more affordable sedan, starting around $35,000, to go to market in late 2017.

91 per cent women think men look the sexiest in these clothes

A new survey has gone on to reveal that a whopping 91 per cent of women believe that a white t-shirt and blue jeans is the sexiest outfit a man can wear, and this seems to be a very popular choice amongst the men too.

Other results revealed by the survey were:

About 62 per cent of the surveyed women confessed to having made the first move at some point of their dating lives, and 88 per cent of the men said they find it "really hot" when the women do so.

When it comes to going out for dates, 52 per cent women think that going dutch while paying the bill on a date is a good option, while 45 per cent women feel that the man should pay for at least the first date.

Again, 62 per cent women said they don't mean to flirt by playing with their hair, but 80 per cent men seem to find it rather attractive.

As for tattoos, 83 per cent women find men with tattoos attractive, while 89 per cent men find tattooed women hot.

A whopping 58 per cent women admitted they have checked their male counterpart's social media posts before going out with them, and 51 per cent of the men have done the same. Not so different, after all!

Leonardo Di Caprio's New Model Girlfriend revealed

According to latest reports, Leonardo DiCaprio is reportedly dating Polish model Ela Kawalec. The couple was spotted riding bicycle in New York City on Thursday.

After months of speculation, Leonardo DiCaprio's new date has finally been revealed. The Oscar winner is said to be dating Polish model named Ela Kawalec.

The 41-year-old actor was spotted riding bicycle with his new love interest in New York City on Thursday. The pair looked happy together as they cycled in the park.

Leonardo, who has dated beautiful models such as Gisele Bundchen, Bar Refaeli, Blake Lively and Toni Garrn, was seen wrapping his arms around his new girlfriend Ela Kawalec.

According to Page Six report, the two were first spotted together at Bodega Negra. A source was quoted saying, Leo and Ela appeared "couply. They were dancing. Leo was dancing with her in his arms and canoodling. They were doing their thing, bumping and grinding."

Leonardo DiCaprio was in relationship with Kelly Rohrbach for nearly six months before breaking up in December last year. Since then he has been linked to many women including Victoria's Secret Pink model, Chelsey Weimar and his 'good' friend Rihanna.

The ace Hollywood actor was even spotted kissing Rihanna at a Paris nightclub, L'Arc in January this year. The two again sparked dating rumours in April when they were clicked together at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival 2016.

Claudia Romani packs up Modelling career, to become professional Referee in Italy

Italian model Claudia Romani is venturing into a new career path in the world of football - after passing an exam in order to become a professional referee.

The 32-year-old has hung up her heels to become a referee, something which has been high on her agenda for a number of months.

Romani is now qualified to referee fixtures in both Serie A and Serie B - something which she is understandably delighted about.

Romani looks in bouyant mood as she models in a referee's kit for Halloween.

She said: ‘Running around on the pitch with all those players and calling the shots is just an irresistible opportunity.'

No female referee has taken charge of a Serie A game as yet due to the amount of experience it commands.

That could soon change in the future, however, as Romani looks to take the Italian league by storm.

Claudia plays football wearing AC Milan jersey.
