There’s a big list of butt exercises. Perform them properly, meaning using good form and having intensity, and there is a good chance of you having a strong and shapely backside. Here are three that I recommend. They are easy to do and you can do them almost anywhere. They are also great supplements to your normal workout routines.<\/p>\n

The Hip Thrust<\/h2>\n

This low impact move has been proven to be the king of glute exercises<\/a>. It opens the hips flexors, activates your glutes while also working the core. This move improves glute strength, increases glute size, helps you improve aesthetics of glutes by achieving higher, rounder and firmer glutes. Reduces your overall risk of injury, as strong glutes can help take stress off the lower back and also positively affect the mechanics of the hips, knees, ankles, and feet.<\/p>\n

Adding bands and elastic resistance are a great variation to strengthen and fired up your glutes. To make it harder use a barbell and increase the load. Another way to intensify and isolate the glutes is by performing Single Leg Hip Thrust. You can also add weights and resistance bands to this variation.<\/p>\n

To modify, start by using your own bodyweight during the Hip Thrust and place a mini band around your thighs.<\/p>\n
