Exercises for the gluteus maximus at home. Home workout for beautiful buttocks

EXERCISES FOR STRENGTHENING THE BUTTOCKS AND .... HIPS.

What shape are your buttocks - rounded or pear-shaped? In principle, it does not matter, the main thing is strong muscles. The buttocks are part of the leg muscle complex. The gluteus maximus muscle determines the shape of this part of the body. The muscle is one of the strongest in the human body. Its main function is to straighten the hip when, for example, you get up from a chair or climb stairs. So any exercise on the buttocks includes the muscle mass of the front and back of the thighs and calves. Therefore, while working hard and sweating over your buttocks, remember that your efforts will not go unnoticed, others will definitely appreciate your slender legs and round as a ball, ass.
When I began to analyze this issue, I was surprised by many things. First, almost all of the most best exercises on this topic is in my complexes. Second, we don’t understand the principle of pumping up the buttocks at all !!! After all, it turns out that we are not only training the hips, we are also working on the buttocks at this moment !!!

A bit of anatomy

Elasticity and smartness of the buttocks are given by three muscle layers. Slightly deeper are bone and ligamentous tissue. To better perform the exercises, it would be nice to understand the anatomy.

Remember also the name and principle of operation of the main gluteal muscles: gluteus medius - the main muscle that abducts the thigh. It starts from ilium and attaches to the femur. The gluteus maximus muscle and four others, including the large one (more precisely, its upper fibers), help her take her leg to the side.

To keep the gluteal muscles in good shape, you need to regularly train the muscles of the legs and lower back.
And what came as a revelation to me was that when bending forward - the muscles of the back, buttocks and back of the thighs work.

Training the buttocks is a long and complicated process. However, as a result, it is possible to almost completely change the shape of the “fifth point”: sagging - to tighten, flat - to give a rounded shape, and so on. This part of the body usually accumulates maximum amount fat. The female body is very inclined to create such reserves in case of the birth of a child, and purely physiologically, some representatives of the beautiful half of humanity are endowed with magnificent forms.

However, with the right amount of effort and proper technique, amazing results can be achieved. It should be noted that the muscles of the buttocks work in conjunction with the hamstrings, so the development of these tendons is also important for beautiful shape buttocks.

Now, all exercises that work on the buttocks, do not forget what I wrote above. I mean forward bends and hamstring stretches, which I was ignoring by the way. Now we are looking at the old exercises in a new way, and of course the new ones !!! Forward, to a beautiful ass!!!

Useful exercises to pump up the thigh and gluteal muscles

Any fitness trainer will tell you that in order to achieve real results in this case, the emphasis must be placed on all three layers of the gluteal muscles. It is very important to use them correctly during exercises and feel them.

In order to strengthen and pump up the most big muscle, it is best to perform exercises in which the leg is retracted back. If you want to strengthen and pump up a small and middle muscle, exercises with abduction of the legs to the sides are perfect. Below are effective exercises, which will help you pump muscles in this area, as well as remove excess fat.

Swing

This exercise is performed from a standing position on all fours. The lower leg should be perpendicular to the surface on which you are standing, while the thigh should be parallel. The movements consist in the fact that you smoothly and slowly pull your leg up, then lower it to the starting position.

wall walking

Technique: starting position - lying on the floor, legs bent at the knees. You must lean your feet against the wall. After that, you need to start stepping up, then down. The buttocks should come off the surface on which you lie in two steps.

Walk

Sitting on the floor, stretch your legs forward, and then begin to move back and forth with the help of your buttocks. "Walk" lasts 2-3 minutes. In addition to being effective, the exercise will also lift your spirits.

Penguin

This exercise is great for training the inner thighs. Technique: you need to sit on the edge of a chair, put a ball between your legs and squeeze it hard for 30 seconds. Then you should relax the muscles without releasing the ball. For several approaches, you need to alternate tension and relaxation of the muscles. The following actions can be an option for performing the exercise: in a standing position, a ball is clamped between the knees, after which you begin to walk around the room with it.

Lunges are the best exercises for pumping up and strengthening the thigh and gluteal muscles.

In more detail, it is worth dwelling on such exercises as lunges back and forth. They perfectly strengthen, stretch and pump muscles, and also contribute to weight loss and burning excess fat. There are only three options for performing lunges, all of them are united by the fact that they have an element of squatting.

Option one. Turn sideways, spread your legs in such a way that one of them is slightly in front, the second is behind. Squat should be shallow and slow, feeling how the muscles tense up. The knee of the leg extended back should almost swing the floor, the leg itself should rest on the toe. It is important to remember that the knee of the front leg should not go beyond the line of the toes.

Option two - lunges back. In this case, all the weight falls on the left leg (if the exercise begins with it). The right foot takes a step back, the chest is straightened, the toe is well extended. We squat so that the knee is low, but does not touch the ground, after which we return to the starting position.

Option three - lunges forward. In this case, the step is not backward, but forward. If space allows, lunges can be done in a step, rearranging one foot after the other. The greatest effect can be achieved if you pick up dumbbells or do an exercise with a barbell or bodybar. Water bottles are great as home weights.

Lunges are best done with weights

• All these exercises in a short period of time allow you to pump the gluteus maximus muscles (lower part), as well as the muscles of the legs to the knee and hips. Even if you work out in a sports club, you should not neglect lunges with a barbell or dumbbells, because it is thanks to them that you can achieve amazing results in a short time.

Note

Whichever complex you choose, it is imperative to carry out a hitch with stretching of all the muscles that worked, as well as the muscles of the back and neck. Each pose of stretching (stretching) must be held for about 20-30 seconds, while it is important to restore breathing and relax properly. In total, stretching takes about 3-4 minutes, but you will be able to maintain muscle flexibility and elasticity. Also, stretching contributes to the faster removal of lactic acid, and, accordingly, prevents krepatura.

The most effective exercises for the hips and buttocks: lying position

If you have problems with your knee joints, squats and lunges are not recommended. In such situations, exercises from a prone position are well suited.

Pelvic lift lying on back

It is necessary to lie on your back, bend your legs, placing your feet on the floor. Hands can be placed along the body or under the head. Tearing off the lower back and back from the floor, you should gently raise the pelvis until top part the torso will not be in the same surface with the anterior thigh. After that, return to the starting position and repeat the exercise. Support must necessarily go to the legs and shoulders.

Implementation options:

• One leg is bent at the knee (the angle between the thigh and lower leg is approximately 90 degrees). bent leg rises up, after which it falls back, while the heel is directed to the ceiling. The exercise can be done with a straight leg, while the ischio-popliteal muscles work.
• The second embodiment - the leg bent at the knee joint, instead of moving back, moves in one direction, after which it rises upwards until it is parallel to the floor.
• The third embodiment - the straight leg rises in the same plane with the body, after which it lowers and rises at an incomplete amplitude.

Hot Five Butt Exercises

The workout below contains the most effective exercises for the buttocks. They are perfect for both women and men who want to make their body perfect.

It is very important to warm up well before exercising. Spend 5 minutes actively running in place, jumping, turning the body and swinging your arms. These simple movements will not only warm up the muscles, but also prepare the body for the upcoming load.

After that, you can start exercises for the buttocks at home.

1. Squats, feet turned diagonally

First, do a series of squats. These are the simplest, but at the same time extremely intense movements. Especially if you are doing this exercise using additional load. This version of the squat, in which the feet are slightly wider than shoulder width and the toes are turned 45 degrees apart, is great for strengthening the buttocks, spinal stabilizers, and back.

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, turn your toes to the sides, and cross your arms over your chest or stretch them forward.
2. As you exhale, sit down so that your thighs are parallel to the floor. Rise up on an inhale.
3. Try to keep your back as straight as possible throughout the exercise.
4. Do 30 squats.

The most effective exercises for the buttocks are, of course, squats.

2. Standing on elbows and knees - heel to the ceiling

The second exercise is performed on the floor. Lay a mat and kneel, put your hands on the floor in front of you.

1. Lower your elbows to the floor and pull your stomach in. In this position, the pelvis is slightly higher than the shoulders.
2. Exhale and lift your right leg up as high as you can, reaching towards the ceiling with your heel. On an inhale, slowly return to the starting position. Make sure that the lower back does not bend down. The body must remain perfectly flat.
3. Do 30 reps with your right leg. Take a break and repeat the exercise with your left leg.

Raise your leg as high as possible, as if you want to push through the ceiling with your heel. After working out a couple of times, you will realize that doing exercises for the buttocks at home is no more difficult than in the gym. The most important thing is to follow the technique and not be lazy.

3. Abduction of the hip to the side lying down

The next movement is a classic swing that allows you to work out the outer side surface hips. This is the most effective butt lift exercise in this area as well. But in order for it to give good result, it is necessary to carefully monitor the technique of its implementation.

1. Lie on your right side. Lift your body off the floor slightly by bending right hand at the elbow and fixing the head on it.
2. As you exhale, lift your left leg up. As you inhale, lower it down, but do not touch the other leg. Continue to perform the exercise until a strong burning sensation appears in the muscles. Try to do 25 reps.
3. Turn to the other side and repeat the movement with your right leg.

We do swings with a straight leg until a burning sensation occurs in the muscles.

4. Skater lunges

Another exercise on the list of the most effective exercises for the buttocks that you can perform without special equipment is the skater lunge. This unusual type of lunge also trains the buttocks, and also perfectly tones the muscles of the body.

1. Starting position: stand straight, legs together, bent arms are fixed at the waist.
2. As you exhale, lunge back with your right foot. Unlike the classic lunge, when the leg moves strictly in a straight line, in the skater's lunge, the leg goes back diagonally.
3. Inhale and bring your right foot back to your left. Make the rise only due to the effort of the front leg.
4. Repeat the movement with your left foot.
5. Do 20 reps with each leg.

Skater lunges are performed backwards and obliquely. Due to this, the gluteal muscle is stretched more strongly, which allows it to be better worked out.

5. Deadlift

The last exercise is deadlift. To perform it, you will need dumbbells, which you can replace with a barbell or any other weight, up to water bottles. No need to take too big weight. For starters, 5 kilograms is enough. This movement is universal and fits perfectly into any power complex.

1. Stand straight with your knees slightly bent. Grab the weight.
2. Inhale and keeping your back straight, lean forward. The angle at the knees does not change throughout the entire exercise. As you exhale, lift by squeezing your buttocks. As you rise, be sure to bring your shoulder blades together. This relieves excess muscle tension.
3. Do 25 repetitions.

Deadlift - classic exercise to work out the buttocks. You can use dumbbells, barbells or any other weight.

Secrets of Successful Training

So, you understand how to pump up the buttocks at home. Now I will give a few secrets that will make your workouts as effective as possible. To quickly notice positive changes in your guise, be sure to use these recommendations.

1. Train regularly. Pump the buttocks at home at least 3 times a week. More infrequent sessions will make the result more blurry. However, one should not resort to the other extreme: too frequent load on one muscle group will not allow muscle fibers fully recover. It is optimal to take a 1 or 2-day break between workouts.
2. Breathe properly. Remember that effort (such as lifting a leg) is always done on the exhale. And muscle relaxation and rest should begin on inspiration. Failure to do this will make even the most effective hip exercises useless.
3. Increase the load gradually. Start by doing basic versions of each movement. When you master the required number of repetitions, complicate them. To do this, add another approach or use weights.
4. Don't forget about cardio. If you want to reduce the appearance of cellulite and lose weight, be sure to combine exercises for the buttocks at home with cardio. You can run, jump rope or do aerobics. The secret of a great shape is 3-4 hours of such a load per week.

Now you know how to pump the buttocks at home. By combining cardio and the special strength exercises that have been described in this article, you will achieve amazing results. Your gluteal muscles will tighten and become more prominent, and the skin will gain elasticity. You can forever forget about such problems as the ugly shape of the buttocks and cellulite.
