Booty Showing Season is almost here...HELP!!

Well, booty showing off season is almost here! Even if you surpass the daisy duke days or are a conservative dresser, you know you will be in a bathing suit and wearing less than the winter days... So let's get some great Butt-specific exercises done!! 

Donkey Kicks. Start on all fours, hands shoulder-width and knees hip-width apart. Keeping one knee on the floor, weight evenly distributed in the both hands and the other knee about 2 inches in from the hip joint. Squeeze your glutes, pulling the heal towards the ceiling, notice the knee keeps its 90 degree angle through the entire motion. Slowly return to starting position. Repeat this 15 to 20 times and switch legs! (photo pbfingers)
Hydrant. HAHAHAHA, I am immature and this name makes me laugh! Again, begin on all fours, hands shoulder-width and knees hip-width apart. Keep one knee on the floor, weight evenly distributed in the both hands. The other knee lifts, from the hip joint, to the side until your inner thigh is parallel with the floor. It is important that you do not rotate through the spine and avoid drawing the knee any closer to the chest. You may not be able to get the leg parallel to the floor, that is okayReturn to the starting position with your knee only slightly off the floor. Repeat this 15- 20 times and then switch legs.

Chair Kicks. These are similar to the donkey kick, however, the base leg (one on the floor) will also get a little workout while stabilizing.. Get a chair and face it away from you. Stand a little less than arms-length away with your feet hip width and hold the chair for balance. Lift your leg behind you, keeping the knee of the base leg “soft” (about a 5% degree bend. Squeeze your glutes and make sure to keep your hips square to the chair. Raise your leg as high as you can, WITHOUT ARCHING THE BACK, then lower to the starting position. Repeat this move 15-20 times and switch legs. (PIC CREDITS ARE PBFINGERS AND CHRISTIAN CARL)
