Girls! Who wants a round, perky booty? Here are my top FIVE (5) glute exercises that you can do from the comfort of your own home to grow a bigger booty!
Frog Pumps – Lay on your back and place your heels together so your legs make a diamond shape on the floor. Dig your elbows into the floor right beside your ribs and drive up your bottom in the air and keep your feet on the floor. The side of your feet will be on the floor and you will be pushing up from there. Pump your bottom into the air and squeeze at the top of the movement. Random looking, but really effective! Complete 30 pumps x 5
Bulgarian Split Squats – Raise your leg behind you and rest your toes on a raised platform (like a sofa, chair or something around your hip height) Standing on one leg with your hands on your hips, slowly lunge down keeping your hips square. Hold at the bottom of the movement then drive back up repeating 10 x on each leg – for 4 rounds. If you want to make it harder, add some weight by holding onto any house hold items or dumbbells.
Glute Kickbacks – Get on your hands and knees so your shoulders are directly over your wrists and your knees are in line with your hips. Slowly raise one of your legs into the air feeling the squeeze through your bottom. Hold at the top of the movement before coming back down. Repeat 20 per leg x 4 rounds.
Body Weight Squats – Stand with your legs just over hip width apart and keep your chest up high. Slowly lower your hips and go as low as you can then hold the movement at the bottom for 2 counts, slowly straighten your legs and squeeze your bottom at the top. Repeat 20 x 5 rounds.
Backwards lunges – Backwards lunges are a great glute exercise. The key to doing them properly is to keep the front shin vertical. So you stand normally and take a big step back and watch that front leg, your knee should not drift forward ever, it should remain directly above your ankle, then you should stand back up trying to use mostly the force through the heel of that front foot. Do 12 on each leg for 4 rounds. Add weight to make it more challenging.
