6 Best Butt Workouts for Women
Turn the junk in your trunk into your best asset by adding these butt workout moves to your routine
Did you know that your booty (ahem, gluteus maximus) is the largest muscle in your body? So why is it that the exercise we practice most for this massive muscle is called the sit-on-it-for-hours? OK, that's not really a butt workout exercise (duh), but it's truly our butts' favorite pastime. Until now. We're here to change all that.
See the six best butt workouts -- now.
Why? Because if you, like us, want your rear view to be one worth doing a double take over, you'll add these six butt workouts, courtesy of fitness and lifestyle consultant Ashley Borden, to your routine.
Aim to do these easy-to-follow moves two to three times a week. You'll do four sets of them. After you finish each set, do two minutes of cardio (jump rope, jog, sprint, bike, you name it) to help burn calories and give your body an overall leaner appearance. Think of it this way, the leaner the rest of your body is, the more fabulous your booty will look.
The best part about this butt workout is, it doesn't require fancy gym machines so you can do it pretty much anywhere -- at home, at a park or at the gym, of course.
Also, two things Borden wants you to notice about these moves as you read through them: First, none of them are seated exercises (sorry to disappoint), but we figured you've got the seated move down pat and these are the most effective exercises for toning your butt. Second, many of these moves work your legs in addition to your glutes, but "hello, they're attached," says Borden. So don't be surprised if your hamstrings, inner thighs and quads also feel the burn as you do these.
So, let's get to it, shall we? See the six best butt workouts now.
