How do I get a model body?

I want to be a sucessful model. I have almost everything going for me, great height etc. I just am a little too 'untoned' to be considered a professional competitive model. What should I do to get the perfect model body?

Do some cardio 2-3 times a week...by using either the treadmill or the elliptical for half an hour. Since you seem to be quite fit, you dont need to exhaust yourself with very strenous exercise.

Also buy some light weight dumbells to tone up your arms a little bit. Being skinny and flabby is not cute but being skinny and a bit toned is a good thing. One more thing, my friend who is a career model always said that good abs does the trick so try doing some crunches daily. Noting too serious and you shoudl see over all results in the blink of an eye.

Also if you are the gym type, you can go to any local gym and explain to the trainers what you just explained to us regarding being toned and they will set up a workout program with you. You could do it with them for a couple of months then take what you learned and run with it and cancel your membershio if it gets expensive for you. Afterall I'm sure you could do some of the weight lifting sessions at home if you buy your own light weights.

Good luck in your ventures. Hopefully we'll see you in magazines and on billboards soon
