Developing strong, contoured glutes is not only about appearances; it also is crucial for general strength and posture. .
With targeted routines that pack a punch in only a few minutes, Caitlyn’s glute-focused workout is meant to help you attain a lifted and rounded form
“I’ve always felt that emphasising glute strength improves your mood more than it changes your appearance,” Caitlyn adds.
Her programme guarantees every workout counts by combining intensity with clever technique to activate every glute muscle.
Here’s a closer view at Caitlyn’s preferred motions:
Starting on your back with your legs bent and feet flat, do 15 repetitions of glute bridges. Squeezing your glues at the top, raise your hips towards the ceiling.
As Caitlyn notes, “It’s perfect for activating those muscles at the start of a workout.” This action works the whole glute muscle.
Grab a dumbbell in each hand and position one foot behind you on a bench for two weighted Bulgarian split squats, ten times each leg. Drop into a squat stance such that your knee doesn’t reach past your toes.
Though Caitlyn swears by this action, it is difficult. She notes, “It really helps shape and lift the glutes while working on balance and strength.”
3. Step-upping ten times per leg: Look for a step or box with knees-high elevation. Rising with one leg, drive through your heel to work your glute.
For additional challenge, Caitlyn advises including weights. “For a very practical approach to develop strength, step-ups are amazing,” she explains.
Spend twenty seconds in a squatting posture, then pulse up and down in little movements. This is a burner; the results speak for themselves. “This one’s difficult but it really fires the glutes,” Caitlyn says with a smile.
