No squats butt workout? Not a problem!

This is a butt workout that won’t bulk up your quads.

Exercises such as squats, lunges and burpees are great for toning up your butt, but when done too much or too heavy, can contribute to your legs looking thicker and more muscular.

For some people, this is fine. But I prefer my legs to have a slimmer look and I know a lot of women out there do too.

This butt workout will help you get a rounded booty without adding size to your legs and making them bulky.

HOW TO COMPLETE THE NO SQUATS BUTT WORKOUT 

  • Complete each exercise for 30 to 45 seconds.
  • If it is a one legged exercise, make sure you do 30-45 seconds per leg.
  • Try to keep rest to a minimum.
  • Complete 2-3 rounds.
  • Don’t forget that the exercises are supposed to be slow and controlled. So focus on this, rather than trying to do them as fast as you can.

NOTE: The last exercise is a challenge (and it is actually harder than it looks!). You don’t have to do this one if it is too difficult – you can just leave it out.

Enjoy! :) xx

If you want to make it a little bit more challenging, you can use ankle weights. I typically use 2 pound ankle weights, but you can use up to 5 pound. These are the ankle weights I use, which you can buy on Amazon.

I should also mention my 3 Steps To Lean Legs Program which is designed to help you get lean and toned legs.

So if you like this style of training that gives you a toned look without making you bulky, my program might be perfect for you :)
