Here are 6 tips on how to lift your butt:

1. Keep your butt in plain view.

When targeting a problem area, people are usually inclined to cover that spot, but experts suggest exposing it in the workout clothes you wear. Exposing your bottom will allow you to focus in on that area and allow you to watch your muscles work while you sweat–It starts with your mind first! You will also be able to see your results as they manifest.

2. Use weights, not just your body weight.

Adding weight to basic moves like squats or lunges will maximize your results. When you do your squats or lunges, add 5-pound weights to really see results. If you don’t have weights, just hold soup cans in your hand.

3. Try the 30-second rule.

This will allow you to take an extra-deep contraction through your glutes and core and stabilize your body before standing up again. Do at least three sets while watching your favorite show. One thing we like to do is called: “Squatmercials”: That’s when while watching your favorite show, do squats during the commercials! It’s brilliant–and it works!

4. Take it slow.

When doing strength training, don’t rush through your repetitions. It’s true the faster you do the reps the quicker you will get done, but doing this will stunt your results. Form is everything when it comes to toning and lifting your butt. But don’t…

Try and make the most of your breaks all day. Try keeping a set of ankle weights in your drawer and doing standing leg lifts or leg extensions during phone calls.

6. Tone while you walk

With each step, when one leg extends behind you, keep your heel on the ground as long as possible. When you do lift your heel, roll through the foot and press off with your toes. You’ll feel your glutes contract with every step.
