| What does it take to work the derriere into a bootie-luscious toning? Here are three exercises to develop buns of cement without the bulge.
The Derriere Booster
Standing with feet slightly wider than the width of your shoulders, and the toes pointing outwards, tuck under the tailbone while squeezing the gluts. Elevate the arms extended out parallel to the length of the shoulders, as the derriere is lowered into a pile squat. In order to maintain balance, remember to keep the arms extended at the height of the shoulders.
Next, sink the bottom down as low as you can possibly go without discomfort. Do not allow the knees to exceed past the toes. Maintain the position for two-
seconds and then return to the first position.
Repeat the motion ten times. On the last go around hold the derriere for 20 seconds?
Jump rope
An old standby for reducing a bulging bottom is jump roping. Each minute of jumping rope burns through 10 calories a minute. To attain the best asset advantages, vary the jumping technique by keeping the feet together with the knees slightly bent while changing the direction from left to right in a swooshing motion. Three minute sets done in five repetitions is the recommended jumping dose.
Derriere Lift
Standing with toes facing forward and the feet shoulder width apart, place the right foot on the inside of the left knee as the arms dangle in front of the body in a poised stance. Extend the right leg behind you less than 10 inches from the floor. While the foot is pointing behind, extend the arms parallel to the floor. During the extension, squeeze the gluts together. Repeat the exercise five times each on leg, consecutively.
