Tone your tush with this booty lifting workout. Who doesn’t want a firm, tight, lifted butt?! A great thing about the exercises below is you don’t need to have a gym membership and the double loop is a very inexpensive toy to purchase, and easy to travel with. You can literally do these exercises anytime, anywhere so you really don’t have any excuses.
Your glutes play a key role in stabilizing your pelvis, propelling you forward and keeping your body properly aligned. Keeping them strong lowers your susceptibility to certain leg injuries, including the dreaded runner’s knee and IT band syndrome. Whether you’re a total fitness junky or just want to live smart and protect yourself from pain, basic glute exercises can help.
To achieve a firm, strong backside, exercises for the glutes should consist of a variety of movement patterns that hit each one of the glute muscles – maximus, medius, minimus. Try this booty-lifting workout to add variety and to strengthen and sculpt that rear end.
BENEFITS OF A STRONG BEHIND:
1. Powers Your Body (increases your force and power during everything from sprinting, jumping, climbing, squatting, and swinging)
2. Protects Joints (healthier knees and hips)
3. Lower Risk of Back Pain
4. Appearance
