If you’re looking to grow or maintain a curvaceous booty and healthy muscle mass that keeps your metabolism humming, or if you are in lockdown and want to get your body moving, this awesome at-home booty shaping workout is for you. Every exercise can be done from the comfort of your own home and, the best thing is there is absolutely no equipment needed which means no more excuses!
How It Works
Complete the following 3 x per week on non-consecutive days for the best result.
Work the 6 station circuit in quick succession with approximately a 10 seconds transition or rest period. Rest for 1 min after the entire round is complete. Repeat 5 sets or 5 rounds through the 6 station circuit.
The repetitions (Reps) are the amount you do in one set. For example a squat with 10 repetitions would be to complete the exercise 10 times before moving onto the next exercise.
The tempo is best explained with 4 numbers 0000 the first number will be the lowering phase of the movement the next will indicate if there is a pause or not the next no will be the lifting phase of the weight and the next number again will indicate a pause or not. For example, the tempo for the bodyweight squat is 3110. This means you lower the body for 3 seconds and hold it for 1 second at the bottom (ouch) drive up for 1 second to return to your starting position with 0 second pause at the top.
Good luck with this one team, the legs and glutes will be on fire! A 6-week timeframe is awesome for seeing development until you start to mix up the exercises and add weight for further sculpting benefits.
