5 MOVES FOR ROUND BUTT THAT BEAT SQUATS

---

Anyone knows that basic squats usually make your booty BURN. But, no matter how many reps you do, this move will only work your glutes from one angle.

To achieve the best possible results in the least amount of time, you’d better varify your workout with exercises that are great for all butt muscles. If you’re ready to round out your glute routine.

The Workout: To work toward a round butt, repeat each exercise for 50 seconds to one minute on each side in the order listed. Then repeat the entire set up to 3 times to seriously feel the burn.

1. Single-Leg Glute Bridg

Lie on your back with your knees bent and soles of your feet on the floor. Extend one leg.

On your exhale, squeeze your glutes, and push your hips up toward the ceiling as high as you can.

Pause, then lower until your butt hovers right above the floor, and repeat without touching the ground to complete one rep.

2. Hydrants With Leg Extension

Begin on all fours with your knees hips-width apart and your wrists stacked over your shoulders.

Keeping the knee bent to a 90-degree angle, lift the right leg out to hip-height, then extend the raised leg straight out to the side.

Pause before you bend the knee again and bring your leg back to starting position to complete one rep.

3. Bear Plank Leg Lifts

Begin in a plank position with your shoulders stacked above your wrists, and your body in a straight line between the top of your head and your heels.

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 up toward the ceiling as high as you can.

Pause, then bring your right knee back to meet your left knee to complete one rep.

4. Single-Leg Dead Lift

Stand on your right foot with your left leg bent in front of you, knee at hip-height.

Engage your glutes as you slowly fold forward, reaching both hands toward the ground as you extend the left leg straight out behind you.

Pause, then return to starting position with control to complete one rep.
