Focus on the GLUTES!

Hi again!


I'm loving being able to post my favorite workouts and then have them on hand if I forget what I super setted (did in sequence), its been great for me!


Most women have goals to keep their core and butt tight, so I decided to post a BUTT focused workout you can do with minimal equipment.


**WARM UP** either with jump rope, or plyometric movements.
-->Within each superset, do 10 to 15 reps of each move, without resting between moves. Once you've done all your reps for both moves in the superset, rest for 30 to 60 seconds and repeat 2 more times. (3x total).


Here are the workout supersets:
Superset 1: 
1.Stability-Ball (Yoga Ball) Hip Extension Leg Curl
        *
2. Dumbbell Bent-Knee Deadlift (2 dumbbells for this one)
        *feet shoulder width, arms hanging in front of body with weights in front of your toes. Bend down to pick up with back straight and push up into standing position.


Superset 2:
1.Dumbbell Step Up (you'll need a step/bench, and some dumbbells)
2.Stability Ball Back Extension
      *Lay on the ball on your stomach, feet against a wall or on a box and with hands behind head and lift core up and slowly lower to flat position.


Superset 3:
1.Elevated Reverse Lunge (you'll need a step/bench--Dumbbells optional)
     *standing on box/step, take left leg and extend back and onto ground and lower until front leg is at 90 degrees then push back up onto box.
 2.Dumbbell Straight-Leg Deadlift (you'll need two 5- to 12-lbs dumbbells)
      * same as bent leg but keep leg straight as you lower weights to ground and push up through your feet to standing position.




Don't forget to stretch!!


Hope you enjoy this workout as much as I do.
