Booty Strength Training with Weights


A lot of the workouts I show here are body-weight exercises, but I do a lot of lifting, especially on leg day. So I thought I'd share some of that. Here is a great sequence you can try to work those glute muscles. To get larger muscles in your booty and legs, you need to challenge your body with weights. In this video, I am using 70lb weights (in the deadlifts and squats) and 10lb ankle weights (in the standing leg lifts).

Do 10 reps of each exercise and repeat 4 times! Watch the form before you start as I've slowed down the videos so you can see.


Cheers Eights & Weights!

Leg Day Routine


It's leg day! Here is a great routine you can do with minimum equipment. You just need dumbbells for the stiff-legged deadlifts. 
  • Standing kickout (15 each leg) 
  • Donkey kick (15 each leg) 
  • Stiff-legged deadlifts (15) 
  • Elevated lunges (15 each leg) 
Do 4 rounds! This should burn. If you have ankle weights, use them for the first 2 exercises.

Leg Day: Leg Lifts with an Exercise Ball



The leg muscles are so large that they require some dedication to build. These are Leg Lifts with an Exercise Ball, and the key here is to really squeeze the ball with your legs and control the motion as you lift and lower. It works your core as well. Try out 4 sets of 15.
