Whether you want to generate more power in your athletic movements or you just want to look better in those jeans, it seems like everyone is all about the booty these days. Looking for exercises that match your current fitness level? Our quick assessment quiz can help create a personalized glute-training plan for your goals. In order to help you reach your goals, TRX Master Instructor, Shana Verstegen notes that getting a BETTER BUTT can be as simple as adding these two TRX exercises.
Watch Shana demonstrate these simple Suspension Training exercises. One you can do without the Suspension Trainer (the Lunge), the other (the One-legged Squat)… you can't (at least, most of us can't). And that's what makes the Suspension Trainer such a versatile and invaluable tool.
No matter your ability level, working with the Suspension Trainer will help you target those muscles in the glutes, hips and thighs, burn the calories and get the BETTER BUTT you're after.
The FIRST exercise for a BETTER BUTT: TRX One-legged Squat
1) Stand facing the anchor point.
2) Make sure your straps are at mid-length.
3) Balance on your right foot.
4) With your left leg forward, put your heel down.
5) Keeping your heel on the ground, lower your body down.
6) Go as low as is comfortable with your right leg, then come up.
7) Repeat or increase in difficulty by lifting your left heel off the ground.
The SECOND exercise for a BETTER BUTT: TRX Crossing Balance Lunge
1) Stand facing the anchor point.
2) Make sure your straps are at mid-length.
3) Balance on your right foot.
