6 Easy-to-Follow Booty Band Workouts From YouTube That Will Kick Your Butt — Literally

10/04/2020 - 05:25 PM

Adding a booty band — also known as a hip circle, mini band, or resistance band — to your fitness routine is a great way to sculpt your butt and make bodyweight moves harder. They're cost-efficient, come in different sizes (AKA, resistances), and are perfect for home workouts. I, for one, love using them. As NASM-certified trainer Alexia Clark [1] said in a previous POPSUGAR interview, "I tell people that some of the hardest sets or burnouts and workouts I've done have been using bands." (And, as she demonstrates in that same article, you can use booty bands for your arms, too [2]!)

If you're looking for the best ways to use your booty band during a workout, YouTube is a grade-A resource. Ahead, we've compiled six videos from certified trainers that you can do right in your living room. Full of kickbacks, squats, even deadlifts, these will target your hamstrings, quads, and, most importantly, glutes. They range in length, but none are longer than 20 minutes. Grab that band (these are my favourites [3]) and get to work!

Here, Heather walks you through banded exercises like squats, variations of glute bridges [5], and fire hydrants. She repeats her sequence a total of two times, and you only get minimal rest in between moves, so make it count!

This Class FitSugar session is taught by Love Sweat Fitness [6] creator Katie Dunlop [7]. She will have you working on glute bridges and clamshells galore. The last two minutes are intense, with variations of leg extensions on the floor. Also, you can check out Katie's workout plans on Glow by POPSUGAR [8].

10-Minute Butt Burnout With Sydney Cummings

In just 10 minutes, you'll do glute kickbacks, side leg lifts, side taps, hip thrusts (what Sydney refers to as glute bridges), and other booty burnout moves. She suggests tacking this on to your leg day. "If your glutes are not on fire right now, you might be Super Woman or Super Man," she says at the end.
