The single most popular question I get is, “How do you get a booty like that”? My answer is genetics – HOWEVER fortunately for you I do have a few exercises and tips to get your booty look right too.
Below I have demonstrated several butt exercises that not only benefit your butt but also your core, legs and even the upper body.
All of these exercises can be modified for your body type and fitness capability. The following tips can be applied to all the demonstrated exercises.
1. The same exercise contrary to popular belief should NOT be done everyday, and even can be damaging to your muscles if done so. Give your body time to repair its muscles.
2. Make sure you are doing each exercise correctly- pay attention to form, alignment and breath. Listen to your body, push yourself but don’t push to injury.
3. If the exercises are becoming too easy – consider adding weight and/or resistance. When adding weight you should not be doing more than 15 reps and towards the end the reps should be tougher to complete but attainable. (Don’t comprise form for completion)
4. Your DIET, yes the way you eat and what you eat shapes your butt – the butt is a muscle just like your bicep or quads and therefore they need protein to grow. Stop being scared of protein and eat some fish, lean meats etc.
SQUATS… YES I’m aware you’ve been told this numerous times and you’ve done God only knows how many 30 day squat challenges. Squats only help if you’re doing them correctly and diversifying the type of squats you do for YOUR body.
