Why train your butt muscles?

• Improve your speed and increase your endurance when you're running, walking, cycling or playing a variety of sports.
• Give your butt a firm appearance.
• Help you stand up straight.
• Support your hips.

Do:

• Maximize their exercise involvement by squeezing your butt at the top of each movement.
• Press through your heels during leg pressing exercises.
• Squats
• Leg Press
• Lunges
• Hack Squats
• Stretch them, as they are often neglected.

Don't:

• Solely perform isolation exercises, as compound exercises work the area more efficiently.
• Fear that squats will make your butt large as a female.
