“The best way to build glutes is to use your body weight for traditional movements. As you perfect your form, you can add weights to make the moves more challenging.
LUNGES: step back until the front knee stacks over the front ankle. Lower the back knee as far as is comfortable, then switch out legs and repeat. To add weight, use dumbbells, a weighted bar, or a barbell with plates.
TRADITIONAL SQUATS: separate your feet a little wider than hip-distance and sit back as you would into a chair. Keep the weight firmly in the center and the back of your feet.
Tighten your abs and point your tailbone toward the floor as much as possible. Inhale as you sit back, and exhale as you stand back up. Repeat as many times as you can. Increase weight with a weighted bar or barbell with plates.
ATTITUDE LEG LIFTS: This exercise can be done standing, on all fours, or laying belly down. Bend one leg and point the knee to the side and away from your body (so that your floating foot ends up behind the knee of the straight leg).
Lift your leg up and behind you, leading with your knee (not your foot). You will not be able to go very far, but that’s normal. This exercise will lift your lower glutes, and round out the top part of your butt. To increase weight, use ankle weights.”
