It’s that time of year again. Time to buy that sexy bikini you’ve had your eye on and be envied by women everywhere. The only question is, are you ready to show off in that bikini? Sure you may have worked hard on those great set of abs, but what about that butt? It`s always a good time to get that bottom half bikini ready. We’ve listed 7 ways to help get you started.

Bench Step Ups

Using a bench, begin by stepping up onto the bench with your right foot while bringing your left foot up and behind. Next, bring your right foot back to the starting position and then your left foot. Repeat, but start with your left foot this time instead. Continue alternating feet for this exercise.

Treadmill Incline

Standing on a treadmill, do a 5-minute warm-up exercise and then adjust the incline of the treadmill to 12.0. Now, increase the speed to what is comfortable to you and walk for at least 15 –20 minutes. Don’t forget your 5-minute cool down!

Dumbbell Squats

For this exercise, begin by standing with your legs wide apart. With your toes pointed outwards, your chest out and head facing forward, hold a dumbbell at arms length and bend down with your knees into a squatting position. Hold for a second and then lean into your heels and straighten yourself back up into the starting position, squeezing your butt and inner thighs as you move.

Dumbbell Lunges

Standing with your feet together and holding a dumbbell in each hand at your side, bring the right leg in front of you while you lower the left leg until it almost touches the floor. Push off on your right foot and slowly return to the starting position. Repeat, starting with the left leg this time. Continue alternating legs for this exercise.

Left to Right Squat

Begin by standing with your right side facing a step. With your right foot on top and the left foot on the floor, bend your knees until you’re in a squatting position. Now, stand up and push off with your right foot while hopping to the other side of the step. Repeat this movement starting at the left side. Continue to alternate sides for this exercise.

Butt Clench

Beginning in a sitting position, slowly tense your butt cheeks and raise yourself an inch or two from your chair. Hold for a second and then relax your muscles. Repeat the exercise. For maximum results, avoid leaning forward or pushing down on your feet as you are raising yourself.

Leg Lift Reverse

Get on your hands and knees and then straighten your left leg as if you were preparing for a push-up. Keeping the right leg bent, support your weight using your arms and contract your butt muscles while lifting your left leg up. Stop when you can feel a contraction in your bottom. Now, slowly return to the starting position. Repeat, beginning with your right side for this exercise.

That’s it! With a little persistence and determination, you’ll be well on your way to a firmer butt in no time at all!
