Move of the Day – Butt Kick Series

June 2, 2015June 2, 2015Leave a comment

After I do a heavy lift on leg day I like to finish with some smaller muscle groups to really get that burn! I promise you if you do these three moves you will feel the burn and help shape a nice round booty!

1. Fire Hydrant – in a dog plank lift on leg laterally keeping knee bent. You’ll feel this is your abductors and your obliques!

2. Donkey Kick – in a dog plank extend leg out and raise to be in line or above your back. Remember to squeeze it as you extend.

3. Straight Leg Lift – in a dog plank extend leg out and lift it up and down squeezing into your glutes at the top. This move will help you lift your booty and strength your hamstrings!

Do each of these moves 25x on each leg…4 times! Alternate sides and I PROMISE you will feel that burn. The results will be worth it!

Hi there! Have a special event coming up? Wanna have legs to show off in the summer time?? No matter what the reason – if you want the lean out your legs – here are three of my favorite moves to do just that! Try these in a circuit 12x each (each leg on RDLs and lunges) and followed by 50 jumping jacks. Try to that 3-5 rounds!

Strong sexy legs!

I love squats and heavy lifting for lower body but sometimes isolating muscles gets you a burn like nothing else!

Here are two leg exercises I did in n preparation for my wedding.

Focus on squeezing planted leg and keep the moving leg foot flexed and controlled throughout the move.

Try doing 10x 4 sets each leg.

Please be careful! Try these moves on the floor before standing on the bosu ball.
Remember to pin and share with your friends and workout partner!

Try something new

We all get into a routine or pick exercises we like but the way to results is to push yourself to a new limit! 👊
Many gyms offer all sorts of classes, no harm in trying one out. You may find a new passion! If you don’t like it, try a different one. ✔✔ Whether it’s yoga, pilates, kick boxing or a spin class the variation will target your muscles in a different way. 💪💪💪
I did my first spin class today and it was tough🔥🔥🔥. Am I gonna go back? Definitely. I’ll try to improve and get better each time. Don’t think you’ll be a pro right away, work into the class and I bet you’ll see the results in your body and the way you feel!

Tuesday Technique: Bulgarian Lunge

Often referred to as the Bulgarian split squat or rear foot elevated split squat.

This effective move trains each leg independently making it a unilateral leg exercise.

The Benefits

Like squatting, this move can produce noticeable muscle and strength gains
Less weights on joints than squatting but allows you to see similar muscular results.
Increases flexibility of the hip flexors and improves overall lower body mobility
Improves both core strength and balance
Helps with agility
Adds variety and targets both legs differently helping to even out the legs unlike squats where one side can compensate for the other.
