I was reading a news story yesterday about an unfortunate lady who received a butt implant procedure. Let me warn you about glute implants, they can pop! Her glute implants exploded and caused extreme butt injury! Needless to say, we can easily avoid these injuries by doing more squats and deadlifts. 🙂 Sign up with a personal training package to help you get best results instead of implants!
Check out the Personal Training Butt Building E-Book e-book to learn where saggy, flat butts are reconstructed and converted into plump, perky, well-shaped rumps.
Check out my NO BUTTS and NO EXCUSES e-book on building your BEHIND!
FORM THE BUTT OF YOUR DREAMS TRAINING PROGRAM!
Truth be told… building a god like backside is a lot simpler than you think!
Using the secrets of top bodybuilders, weightlifters, and numerous others
who have bubble butts, hard butts and oh so strong rear ends, the butts are
attainable!! You want to listen to the people who have been there and done
that in regards to training the tush!!!
We will go over the major fallacies of actually
attaining a rock solid and astonishing tush!
Throughout this book, we will go over professional
butt builders and the strategies, exercises, nutrition,
and tips to ward off strangers who start to rudely
stare at their treasured booty (pirate pun
intended!!).
The buttocks consist of three major muscle
groups and is responsible for numerous very
important movements in daily life. You can’t
walk, sit down, or stand up without your “peaks
of power”. With this being said many of us are
using our glutes in this manner every day. This
means that just walking or standing up squatting
without a load or doing leg lifts will not help
serious butt formation. Your body is already
taking thousands of steps per day while
shopping etc. so we need to do something more
drastic. These more dramatic steps will be
covered further in this book.
Sign up for a personal training session at the Fitness Achievement Center
if you want an intro as well.
Workouts For A Better Butt & Training
The butt consists of the gluteus maximus, medius and minimus. These
muscles are responsible for extending the hips and making the knee joint
YOU CAN’T
WALK, SIT DOWN, OR STAND UP WITHOUT YOUR “PEAKS OF POWER”!!!!
Anytime you are doing glute exercises lock hips out to its full range of motion
All of your backside including the back
of the legs and back are involved. We call all of these muscles as a group
“the posterior chain” or the muscles of the entire back side, posterior.
There are two separate focuses in order to prepare
for the extreme and effective HYPER butt Sculpt
exercises. These are stretching and posterior chain
exercise. We will be doing exercises to strengthen
the entire backside not just one part in particular!!!
Personal Training Stretches
We stretch in order to keep our knees safe and our
body feeling healthy, as well as improving our
recovery time between our kick a** training
sessions!!
With this being said, Remember!! Safety of our
joint structures should be the most important
aspect of our training because we want to
maintain pain free joints. With that being
said…Butt and leg muscular soreness is something
you just gotta deal with… 😉
If you have squatted before and developed knee
pain then you know exactly what I am talking
about and the reason for knee pain is not the squats, it’s the way you are
doing the squats!! This is good news because it’s an easy fix with some
practice!! And trust me…… we will be doing a lot of practice! 😉
We want to stretch and foam roll before every workout in order to speed
up our recovery. What is a foam roller? A foam roller is basically a tube of
solid foam which acts as an artificial deep tissue massage for your muscles.
Roll out all of the back side and the legs, including both the quads (front of
the legs) and backside. It is important to always stretch and foam roll both
sides of the walking sticks in order to prevent injury!!

Strength Personal Training Exercises To Strengthen Lower Body
Back squat
Purpose: Strengthen the entire posterior chain and quadriceps
Description: Start with feet shoulder width apart. Feet should point out at a
slight 30 degree angle. Sit back onto your heels as if you are sitting on a
chair. After your thighs are below the crease of the hips, stand up and
squeeze the glutes at the top of the movement. Remember, during the
squat make sure the knees stay in line with the toes, never falling inward.
For example, imagine you have a rubber band around both of your knees
and the band is trying the pull you knees together. Keep the knees pushed
out against the imaginary band. Secondly, make sure the knees do not
move forward, over the toes. Always keep the knees directly in line with or
behind the toes.

chain muscles

and reach down and grab the bar. Keep the chest up (someone in front of

muscles tight. Your armpit muscles or (latissimus dorsi) will help stabilize
your back as you lift the weight. In order to keep these muscles active,
imagine someone is trying to tickle you and you have to squeeze your
upper arm against your armpit. Use this technique to maintain tension in
the lats and to help keep the shoulders back. Lastly, keep the head neutral
and back flat and push the ground away from you. At the top of the
movement make sure to squeeze the glutes and keep the shoulders pulled
back.
