But where do you start? How can you get around and lifted butt without spending all day on the Stairmaster? We’re here to help.

Keep reading for a few top exercises that will work those glutes!

1. Squats

Squats are one of the best full-body exercises that you can do. Whenever you’re doing a full-body workout routine, like the routines provided by jensgetfitgroup.com, you’ll notice that squats make an appearance. But why is that?

When you do a squat, you’re working your core, your legs, and your butt all at once. If you’re holding a heavyweight, you may also be incorporating your back and shoulders.

To do a proper squat, lead with your bottom. Pretend that you’re sitting down on an invisible chair. Always keep your back straight.

If you’ve never squatted before, do it without any weight until you get proper form.

2. Lunge Variations

Lunges are great for isolating your glute and quad muscles. There are so many types of lunges that you can make an entire workout routine from them if you choose to do so.

Lunges are similar to squats. You want to keep a flat back to keep yourself stable and safe. For a standard forward or reverse lunge, your goal is to dip between your front and back leg while putting equal pressure on both.

For variations, try side lunges and curtsy lunges. When it comes to glute workouts, we love curtsy lunges for a serious burn.

3. Hip Thrusts

Hip thrusts will make you feel powerful and they’re great booty exercises.

Start with pilates bridges. Lay on the ground with your knees bent and your feet as close to your butt as possible. Thrust your hips up so your butt is no longer on the ground. Repeat this while never touching the ground with your butt until your set is over (only hover).

When you have this down, you can start adding weights and placing them on your hips.

If you’re ready for a more intense burn, Lean your shoulders on a bench, chair, or even your bed. Your shoulders should be holding you up enough so that you’re able to thrust up into a flat “tabletop” position. Add your weights and you’ll find that this is a bigger challenge!

4. The Jump Squat Burnout Booty Challenge

Never skip your burnout if you want to really tire out those glutes.

At the end of your workout, or even between sets, we suggest doing 30-45 seconds of jump squats. This sounds easy, but if you’re already tired, you’ll discover that it’s an intense challenge!

If it’s still too easy, hold onto lightweights.
