DIY Butt Lift: 5 Workouts To Build Your Best Butt

Most women spend a tremendous amount of time on cardio and burning fat as a focus, forgetting or unaware that quality strength training and developing the gluteal muscles is what directly affects the overall shape of the butt. These five DIY butt lift exercises for building a better butt have an extra bonus of aiding in the development of the quads and hamstrings and, when performed correctly and consistently, will take your butt to that higher place.


The key, as with any workout, is the ability to be consistent with a balance of upper body, legs, abdominals, cardio, and proper nutrition. Try this two times a week with three sets of 10-12 reps except where stated with jump squats.

Lunge


Targets: The glutes, hamstrings, quads and core


How-to: Step roughly three feet apart, keep torso erect, abs pulled in tight and lower straight down, without leaning forward. Push through the heel to rise back to starting position.


Tip: Take a longer step to engage the glutes more.

Fire Hydrant


Targets: The glutes and obliques


How-to: Start on the floor on all fours, flatten back, hold your abdomen in and lift one knee out to the side and up to hip height. No better way to describe it, except it is like a dog lifting its leg on a fire hydrant.

Squat


Targets: The quads, hamstrings, and also aids in over-all glute development.


How-to: Place feet shoulder-width apart and hands at side. Mimic sitting in a chair while keeping the chest high and lowering the torso till knee and hip are parallel to the floor and return to start position without locking the knees.

Bulgarian Split Squat


Targets: The glutes while quads are engaged.


How-to: Extend leg behind and place foot on a bench or chair. Squat down by flexing hip and knee of the front leg until the back knee almost touches the floor and return to start position.

Jump Squat


Targets: Quads. I like to add the jump squat to round-off the butt workout while activating the quads.


How-to: Start in a squat position and as you rise from the squat jump, reach for the ceiling. As you land, go into the next squat position to immediately repeat again. This is the only exercise to be performed quickly with the rest occurring after the decided number of reps.


I recommend 10 to 15 repetitions per set.
