No matter if you are a guy or gal, you want exercise to help you build a
better butt.

I remember when I first realized how much women cared about guy’s butts. I
was in University, working as a trainer, and heard through the “grapevine”
that one of the trainers thought I had a great butt.

My first reaction was, “Huh? Girls care about guy’s butts? And here I’ve
been wasting my time on my arms and pecs”. So after getting over that shock,
my next thought was, “Hmm, so what am I doing right? And how can I keep this
information all to myself so no other guys knows about it!”

So I went through my workouts, analyzing each leg exercise for maximum “butt
boosting”, and came up with a list of 5 exercises that are essential to
building a better butt, especially someone who wants a more athletic type of
workout and body.

After all, I trained “athletically”, not with bulking bodybuilding type
workouts. And as the trainer who designed workouts for the female basketball
team, I could “see” that those workouts were building better butts for girls
as well!

And no, these workouts don’t involve any stupid machines like the “butt
blaster” or the machine that looks like it should only be found in an OB-GY
clinic.

The exercises are going to be working the glutes and they will all be done
standing up. The first exercise is the squat, using a slightly wider than
normal stance – as that allows you to push your hips back more which helps
you work the back of your legs more when you squat. Push your hips back,
squatting down, squeeze your glutes and come back up.

Next is a split squat, one foot forward one foot back. Drop your hips
straight down and then squeeze the glute and quad to come back up.

Next is the reverse lunge, step back, drop hips down and squeeze glutes to
come back up to the start position.

Next is the step up, stand far back from the bench, and step onto the bench,
drive through your heel to use the back of your leg to raise you up, come
down slowly.

Last perform a Bulgarian split squat, perform a regular split squat with
your back foot elevated. Drop your hips down and tighten your glutes to
bring yourself back up.

Do 2-3 exercises twice per week. Do 1-3 sets of 8-12 reps. Lose fat, build
muscle, and you’re set.
