Exercise 1: Plank with Hip Extension

This exercise will get you off to a great start by activating all the muscles in your body with emphasis on your core and glutes. Start lying on your stomach and push into "plank position," forearms on the floor, with your shoulders directly above your elbows. Make sure your body is in a perfect straight line by bracing your abdomen and squeezing your butt and legs. Keeping the rest of your body in perfect alignment, use your glute muscle to raise one leg at a time, alternating with your toe lifting 6" to 2" (depending on your fitness level) off the ground.
Goal is 20 total lifts

Exercise 2: Runner's Lunges

Start in a "runner's lunge" position with one hand on each side of your front leg. Make sure to push down with the heel of your front foot so that there is little or no weight on the ball of your foot or toes. Drop your back knee to touch the floor and then pull your foot forward, placing it directly beside your front foot, both knees remaining bent 90 degrees. Next, take the opposite leg back into a runner's lunge and repeat the steps 20 times. You should feel a nice burn in your butt and thighs... cherish this feeling, it means you are changing your body for the better!
Goal is 20 total lunges

Exercise 3: Jump Squats

Start with your feet hip width apart. Squat back as if you are sitting down in a chair until your thighs are just parallel to the ground. All your weight should be in your heels and keep your chest lifted as much as possible. From there, use your power to jump in the air, landing with your feet out wide, toes pointed 45 degrees out, and drop into another squat. Jump again, landing with your feet in their original position and repeat. This exercise should leave your heart pounding as it tightens and firms your muscles while burning fat at the same time.
Goal is 10 repetitions

Exercise 4: One-Leg-Get-Ups

Start seated on a bench, chair or couch. The higher it is, the easier the exercise will be. One foot stays on the ground while the other foot is lifted in front. Lean back and then rock forward, driving your heel into the floor in order to stand up on one leg. Keeping your balance, slowly lower your body back down into the original seated position. Repeat with each leg. When you are ready to increase the intensity, move to a lower seat and use less of a rock to assist you in standing up. This is a very challenging exercise but you will see progress quickly so stick with it!
Goal is 10 reps

Rest between exercises for 30-60 seconds. Repeat circuit 3 times, 3 days per week to left your butt 3 inches in 3 weeks!
