Squats benefit your glutes better than a cardio workout. But, it’s important to mix up the type of squat exercises each time you work out to get maximum results. Here are few options:

1. Body Weight Squats

This is just a regular squat with zero exercise equipment. Just get into basic squat form, feet hip width apart, feet slightly pointed out, squat down to where your knees reach a 90-degree angle and then try to maintain the weight through your heels as you push yourself back up to start. Remember to not lean forward and to maintain a flat back throughout the exercise. Your knees should never track over your toes.

2. Plie (Sumo) Squats

In this squat your feet need to be wider than hip width apart with your feet angled significantly outward. Same rules of a regular squat apply to this one. Remember to push through your heels as this will keep the focus in your glutes! Be sure to keep your back in line. For Plie squats, your knees will be pointed outward. This is going to target your inner thighs and give your booty a lift. If you need to make it more difficult, grab some weights or a kettle-bell!

3. Split Squats

This type of squat is done on one leg. You’re going to lift your left leg either behind you or keep it as straight as possible in front of you while you squat down on your right leg. If you’re just beginning, you can hold on to something or use a chair to learn the movement. Again, try to keep your weight in your heel to hit the booty. If you’ve mastered the movement, hold on to some extra weight!

Challenge Yourself: Perform 50-100 Squats each day! You can do them all at once or break it up throughout the day. Pick a different type to perform every day.
