Glute Blaster Workout!

Ladies, we all know we want to tighten up the glutes. We are getting close to where everyone wears the infamous leggings! What better time than now to utilize these exercises? I compiled four main exercises I’ve been doing, and they are very simple to do at home!


·       Fire Hydrants
o   Get on hands and knees
o   Keep knees bent and lift leg out to side
o   Can either alternate legs, or do a full set then switch

 


·       Donkey Kicks
o   Get on hands and knees
o   Kick one leg up
o   Can either alternate leg kicks, or do a full set then switch


 

·       Pulsing Squats (I used a barbell, but it is not necessary to perform this exercise)
o   Pull belly button to spine via the “draw in” maneuver
o   Feet about shoulder width apart
o   Keep back straight to prevent from swaying
o   Squat down (not a full squat) and make sure knees don’t come past the toes
o   Pulse (up and down slightly)

 

·       Walking Lunges (I used dumbbells, but it is not necessary to perform this exercise)
o   Take a step out in front, to allow the other leg to come down (knee almost to floor)
o   Do not let the knee come out further than your toes

o   Stand up and step back together
