bulgarian split squats

Yes, I'm being blunt, but let's face it, in today's modern culture there is an evergrowing fixation with a woman's derriere. After all, no one ever wrote a song about a small booty, right? So how do you achieve that nice round, peach emoji-like behind?

There are a ton of exercises to build that booty, and I will share with you as much as I can. Let's start with one of my personal favorites - bulgarian split squats! These are excellent for targeting those glutes, and you dont even need heavy weight to get results!

These are very similar to a lunge, except we are elevating our back leg. Simply rest your back leg on an elevated surface (I am just using a bench), and bend your front leg in a lunging motion. Be careful not to let your knee ever go over your toes! Alignment is so important for this exercise, so try to do it in a mirror your first couple of times to ensure proper form. I usually use about 10-15 pound weights, but you can just use your body weight while you're getting used to the motion.

I will usually do about 3 sets of 10-12.

To start, try to do 3 sets of 10 using just your body weight. Once you get a feel for the exercise and confident that you are using proper form, grab some five pound weights with the same number of reps and feel that burn!!
