Tone Up That Booty!
A round, firm butt isn't just a sign of beauty, it's a sign of good health!
Getting a toned booty is the gift that keeps on giving: it will not only bless you with confidence, but it can also help relieve lower back pain and make daily movements like standing and climbing stairs easier.
To strengthen your glutes, you don't need fancy gym equipment. All you need is some free time and a few simple bodyweight exercises!
Here's a good basic fitness plan:
- 20 minutes of exercise, 3 days per week
- Choose 3 exercises — for each exercise, do 3 sets of 15 reps
And voilà... You'll have a beautiful booty in no time!
EXERCISE NUMBER 1: Squats
Start with your feet slightly more than hips-width apart. Bend your knees, and lower your butt to the ground until your thighs are parallel to the ground. Make sure your spine is straight and your knees do not go past your toes. Push back up through your heels until standing. Repeat.
EXERCISE NUMBER 2: Jump Squats
This exercise uses explosive movements, so you'll feel the burn!
Use the same movement as a squat, with one modification. Once you're lowered all the way into your squat, come up again by jumping straight up into the air. As you come down, lower back into your squat.
Want to make this more challenging? The higher the jump, the more you'll feel the burn.
EXERCISE NUMBER 3: Donkey Kicks
Start in pushup position, with your hands shoulder-width apart by your sides. Lift one leg, bring it to your chest and then throw it out behind you, kicking your heel up at the back for extra lift. Try to repeat as many times as possible without putting your foot back down on the ground.
EXERCISE NUMBER 4: The Mountain Climber
Start with your body in pushup position, hands shoulder-width apart. Bring one knee into your chest, and switch — quickly alternating knees so that only one foot is on the ground at a time.
This exercise has the added benefit of engaging your core, so you get a flat, firm belly.
EXERCISE NUMBER 5: Spidermans
Start at the top of the pushup position. With your spine straight and your core strong, bring your knee up towards your elbow. Return to start, and switch sides.
Remember, the only way to see results is to stay consistent! Make sure to keep doing these exercises three times per week, and you will start to see results!
