The perfect beach body is whatever body you have. Jokes aside, we know that with the summer just around the corner a lot of us want to accelerate the process of achieving our fitness goals.
Our butt muscles, collectively known as glutes, are one of the largest muscle groups in your body. Strong glutes help with all types of movement, including walking, lifting, and of course running.
Mixing up your routine will help you avoid boredom and train this important muscle group in different ways! And this is the key secret into building a bubble butt.
Brittany Perille Yobe is a certified personal trainer who posts workouts for her 1.2 million followers. "To achieve your best possible butt, you’re better off mixing things up. I train with about 10 different glute exercises that isolate the muscles by working them from various angles,” says Brittany.
4 Bubble Butt Exercises:
Recline on your back with your knees bent and the bottoms of your feet on the floor. Stretch one leg. On your exhale, squeeze your glutes and push your hips toward the ceiling. Lower until your butt hovers right above the floor, and repeat without touching the ground.
Stand on your right foot with your left leg bent in front of you. Engage your glutes as you slowly fold forward, reaching both hands toward the ground as you extend your left leg straight out behind you. Pause, then gently return to starting position. Repeat it on both legs.
Begin in a plank position. Lift your right leg and bend the knee 90 degrees, bringing your heel toward your butt. With a flexed foot, squeeze your glutes and raise your right heel toward the ceiling as high as you can. Repeat the movement with both legs.
Begin with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointing forward. Keeping your knees behind your toes, sit your hips back into a squat. Pulse up a few inches as you turn your toes 45 degrees outward and sink your hips back into a low squat. Pulse up to bring your toes forward, and continue to alternate foot positioning as you pulse.
Perform each exercise for 45 to 60 seconds on each side in the order listed. Then repeat the sequence up to three times to seriously feel the burn.
