Step up Lunge: A must do three to four times a week for that sexy butt. As an aging baby boomer, I live a healthy lifestyle and I am working hard to maintain great health and wellness. While I am working diligently, I have also made a decision to have a sexy butt. So this is the routine that I do three to four times a week to maintain my (or so I am told). fabulous gluteus maximus. This exercise can be done at the gym using a bench to step up onto, but since my time is limited I choose to do this at home (I often do this while watching the evening news) using a stepper. You can also make a box the ideal height is 12 to 18 inches.
You must keep in mind that the higher the box, the more difficult the exercise. Stand up straight, place your feet flat on the floor, and stand directly if front of your box. Hold a dumbbell in each hand. Keep your head up and bend your knee?s slightly. Rotate your hands so that your palms are facing inward towards each other. Lift your left foot, and place it onto the box, shift your weight onto that leg and push, straightening the leg and lifting your right foot off the floor.
This leaves you standing on top of the box. Now step back off the box leading with the right foot. Return to the starting position with both feet on the floor. Now repeat with the right foot leading onto the box, shift the weight onto that leg and push, straightening the leg and lifting your left foot off the floor so that you are now again standing on top of the box. Now step back off the box leading with your left foot. Return to the starting position with both feet on the floor. This is one repetition. Now repeat until you have completed three sets of 15 repetitions. Don?t give up if you want that sexy butt!
