Get Toned Buns: Seriously Tight Butt Workout
Look Awesome in Your Skinny Jeans
Trying to fit in skinny jeans without having that stubborn fat roll over them is probably one of the worst feelings in the freaking world right? Unfortunately for some of us it feels like we store fat in all the wrong places and getting those areas to tone up can be a frustrating venture.
So how do we get around this and totally rage full on war against these problem areas? Â Well the no-brainer is you definitely have to get your healthy eating plan cleaned up with something like this Clean Eating Grocery List, but then it’s all about how hard you hit your training.
It going to take the right combination of cardio and resistance training and you’ll want to get in about 30 minutes of cardio 4-5 days a week, but I’ve also come up with a butt toning workout to take you all the way to the home-stretch in getting results.
Run through this workout twice a week, performing 3-4 sets of each exercise and make sure to get in the 12-14 reps range per exericse.

The Seriously Tight Butt Workout
Dumbbell Squats – This is always a good place to start when it comes to getting tighter glutes. Stand with your legs at about shoulder width, and hold a dumbbell in front of you with both hands (for additional resistance, you can also hold a dumbbell in each hand at your sides). Keeping your back straight and without leaning forward too far, lower your body as deep as possible, making sure to not let your knees pass your toes. Hold for a moment, slowly return to starting position, and repeat.

Lateral Lunge – This is a twist on the standard lunge, but it helps target your glutes from a different angle. Stand with feet at shoulder width and hold a dumbbell in each hand. As you extend one leg out to the side, bend the opposite knee and lower into a lunge, leaning forward slightly but not letting your knee pass your toes. Return to starting and repeat on opposite side.
