A short time ago, I share my first fitness video with you. Â It was a short video illustrating a few moves using resistance bands to help strengthen the arms and legs. Â While a decent start, those exercises barely involved the booty.
I received many positive comments, encouraging feedback, and interesting questions. Â Since that resistance band workout post generated so much interest, I decided to make another video for you focusing on the booty.
Sure, we want that rump to look good in a bathing suit. Â It is summer, after all. Â However, the glutes, the muscles that form the butt, serve to help us walk and stand erect. Â Keeping them strong will make you look better, but also help you function in daily tasks like walking upstairs, side-stepping an obstacle, or crouching down to lift a bag of groceries.
The booty muscles also help with posture. Â While good posture looks better than slouching, good posture also aligns the organs and improves their efficiency.
Basically, there’s “butts” about it! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist). Â Having strong gluteal muscles improves more than your sensuality. Â It’s also healthier!
Please consult an expert health professional before starting this or any other workout to make sure that these moves are appropriate for your body.
Last item of note, you do not have to have these bands to do these moves. Â Any good quality resistance loops should work. Â However, if you are new to exercise, you don’t have to use the equipment at all. Â Simply use your own body weight as resistance. Â Work at your own pace. Â If you feel pain, stop.
So ready for that workout?

July 12, 2016 - 12:01 pmThank you! Since my arm is still hurting, I’m trying to focus more on the lower body. At least my tush will be tight – and I’ll walk upright 😀
