Ryan Read Booty Workout

Alright here’s an awesome Ryan Read booty workout that you can use as your leg day routine or implement into your daily workout.

 

Standing Kickbacks 

  • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. If you have a booty band, place it around the middle of your thighs. This is a perfect workout for our Ryan Read Ankle Resistance Bands!
  • Hinge at the hips, steady yourself by holding onto the back of a chair, look at the floor, and shift your weight onto one foot.
  • Slightly bend the knees and kick back the leg that you’re not standing on.
  • Flex your glute (booty), pause, slowly return your leg to the floor, and repeat.
  • Repeat for 30-seconds, three times on each side, for a total of 3-minutes.

 

Tip: Rotate your tailbone in to protect your back and work those glutes.

 

Fire Hydrants 

  • Start on your hands and knees with your back straight. Knees together and hands shoulder-width apart.
  • If you have a booty band, place it around the middle of your thighs. This is another great perfect for our Ryan Read Ankle Resistance Bands!
  • Looking down at the floor, lift one knee away from your body. Keep your knee bent at 90 degrees and lift until it aligns with your hip. 
  • Slowly return your knee to the ground.
  • Repeat for 30-seconds, three times on each side. Rest for 30-seconds in between sets

 

1-minute rest – drink water!!

 

Squats

Deficit Dumbbell Reverse Lunge

  • Grab a set of weights that you’re comfortable lunging with and a sturdy 6-inch platform.
  • If you don’t have weights, you can use a couple of water bottles, cans... any 2 heavier things of equal weight! (Or no weights at all)
  • Hold one weight in each hand and plant one foot firmly on the platform.
  • Shift your weight onto the planted foot, bend your knee, and kick your other leg back until your toes touch the floor. This might sound a little complicated, but it’s just a reverse lunge!
  • Come back up to standing and repeat.
  • Repeat for 30-seconds, three times on each side. Rest for 30-seconds in between sets.
