GL's booty buster workout


For a bum that looks, well, bootylicious in those boot cut jeans of yours, we've got five moves for you to try. Before school, after school, during gym class--whenever your workout time is, add these moves to your repetoire and you'll be seeing a toned tush in just a few weeks.

Sky high

Lay on your back on the floor with your knees bent, feet flat and arms by your sides. Squeeze your bum and lift your hips off the floor to form a straight, diagonal line from your knees to your chest. Hold for five seconds, then slowly lower back down to your starting position. Repeat 20 times.

Kick it

Get down on the ground on all fours, arms under your shoulders and knees beneath your hips. Stretch your left leg up and behind you, squeezing your tush as you go. Lift it as high as you can without wobbling or rotating your hips. Hold for five seconds, then bring it back down. Do 10 reps on each side.

Sit back

Stand with your feet slightly wider than your shoulders, knees under your hips, ankles under your knees. Keep your back straight, not rounded. Slowly bring your hips back and bend your knees, keeping your shoulders and back straight. Bring your hips as low as you can, down to your knees if possible, then return to standing. As you move through your squats, you can keep your arms straight out or hold them close to your chest, elbows bent and hands clasped. Do 15 reps.

Pretty plies

Stand in second position--feet wider than your shoulders and turned outward. Hold your arms out, mirroring your feet, elbows loose and comfortable. Bend your knees slowly and let your body dip down. Your heels may come off the floor slightly as you sink further toward the ground. Keep your shoulders pulled back and spine straight, butt beneath you. Come up slowly, and repeat 20 times.  

Lunge lady

Stand normally with your feet under your hips, then take a big step forward with your left leg. Your left shin should be perpendicular to the floor, forming a right angle with your left thigh--you do not want your knee to extend over your foot. Your back leg should be bent, knee a few inches off the ground. Stand up, stepping forward with your right leg, and repeat, lunging across your space. Spend about five minutes doing lunges.
