You need Just 15 Minutes To Sculpt a Perfect Butt In a Month With These 5 Exercises

If you really want to perk up your peach, all-day-everyday squats aren’t going to cut it. You need to remember to target all the muscles in your booty, especially your hamstrings.

That’s because strong hammies lift your tush, power your cardio, and help prevent knee and low-back pain. While any exercise that trains them naturally recruits your glutes, the opposite can’t be said. To fully activate those muscles, you need to zero in on two movement patterns: hip extension (think deadlifts) and knee flexion (like leg curls).

Where to get started? Try this 15-minute circuit workout that targets those often-forgotten but oh-so-important muscles on the back of your thighs, created by Mike Robertson, C.S.C.S., president of Robertson Training Systems and co-owner of Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training in Indianapolis.

To try it out, follow the moves below. Crank though three sets of the first move, resting 60 seconds in between sets. Complete 2A and 2B as a superset: Perform each as instructed without resting in between, rest up to 60 seconds, and repeat for three total sets. Complete the last move the same as the first.
