This workout is designed to help you strengthen and tone your booty and abdominal muscles, while also burning fat throughout your entire body. It is a circuit workout, meaning you will move through a series of exercises with little to no rest in between. This will help to keep your heart rate up and maximize calorie burn. 

Throughout the workout, you will engage in exercises that target your glutes, hips, and abs, as well as incorporating cardio exercises such as jumping jacks or high knees to increase your heart rate and help you build endurance. By combining strength and cardio exercises, you will be able to achieve a full body workout that will help you to tone and strengthen your muscles while burning fat.

30 seconds work
30 seconds rest
2 rounds
1 minute rest between rounds

1. Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart and your toes turned out slightly. Hold a pair of dumbbells in front of your thighs with your palms facing your body.

2. Lower your body into a sumo squat by bending your knees and pushing your hips back. Keep your chest up and your weight in your heels.

3. As you come up from the squat, straighten your legs and hinge forward from your hips, keeping your back flat and your core engaged.

4. Lower the weights down toward the ground, allowing a slight bend in your knees, until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings.

5. Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement, then reverse the motion by squeezing your glutes and hamstrings and straightening your body back up to the starting position.

6. Repeat for the desired number of reps.

7. To make the exercise more challenging, you can increase the weight or perform the movement on a single leg.

8. Always listen to your body and stop if you feel any pain or discomfort.

Dumbbell Sumo Squat to Straight Leg Deadlift

1. Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the ground. Place a weight or resistance band just above your knees.

2. Place your arms by your sides with your palms facing down.

3. Squeeze your glutes and lift your hips off the ground until your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your knees.

4. Pause briefly at the top of the movement, then lower your hips back down to the ground.

5. Repeat for the desired number of reps.

6. To make the exercise more challenging, you can increase the weight or resistance of the band, or perform the movement on one leg at a time.

7. Always listen to your body and stop if you feel any pain or discomfort.

Weighted/Banded Glute Bridge

Here are the steps to perform a standing, banded lateral abduction exercise:

1. Begin by attaching a resistance band around both ankles. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, and your arms at your sides.
2. Engage your core and glutes, and take a small step to the left with your left foot. Keep your right foot stationary.
3. Slowly lift your right leg to the side, away from your body, keeping your foot flexed and your knee straight. Keep your upper body still and stable throughout the movement.
4. Pause briefly at the top of the movement, and then slowly lower your right leg back down to the starting position.
5. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions, and then switch sides by stepping to the right with your right foot and lifting your left leg to the side.

Tips:
- Keep your core and glutes engaged throughout the exercise to maintain stability and balance.
- Focus on moving your leg out to the side, rather than forward or backward.
- Keep tension on the resistance band throughout the movement by keeping your feet hip-width apart.
- Start with a light resistance band and gradually increase the tension as you become stronger.
- Avoid leaning your upper body to one side or tilting your hips during the exercise.

Standing Banded Leg Abduction

1. Begin in a bear hover position with your hands directly under your shoulders and your knees hovering just off the ground.

2. Place a resistance band around your thighs.

3. Engage your core and lift your right foot off the ground, extending your leg straight back behind you.

4. At the same time, tap your left foot out to the side, keeping your leg straight.

5. Bring your left foot back to center and lower your right foot back to the ground.

6. Repeat on the other side, lifting your left foot and tapping your right foot out to the side.

7. Continue alternating sides for the desired number of reps.

8. To make the exercise more challenging, you can increase the resistance of the band or hold a plank position instead of a bear hover.

9. Always listen to your body and stop if you feel any pain or discomfort.

Static Bear Hover with Banded Alternating Toe Taps

1. Start by placing a resistance band around your ankles and getting down on all fours with your hands shoulder-width apart and your knees hip-width apart.

3. Keeping your foot flexed, kick your left foot back and up towards the ceiling, squeezing your glutes at the top of the movement.

4. Lower your left leg back down to the ground, but don't let it touch the ground.

5. Repeat for the desired number of reps on your left leg.

6. Switch sides and repeat on your right leg.

7. To make the exercise more challenging, you can increase the resistance of the band or add ankle weights.

8. Always listen to your body and stop if you feel any pain or discomfort.

Banded Glute Kickback

1. Lie on your side with your leg straight up in the air.
2. Engage your core muscles

2. Place a resistance band around your ankles and hold onto the ends of the band with your hands.

4. Hold the plank position for a few seconds, making sure to keep your body in a straight line from your head to your heels.

5. Lift your right leg off the ground and bring it up towards your chest, keeping your knee bent.

6. Lower your right leg back down to the ground, but don't let it touch the ground.

7. Lift your left leg off the ground and bring it up towards your chest, keeping your knee bent.

8. Continue alternating leg lifts for the desired number of reps or time.

9. To make the exercise more challenging, you can increase the resistance of the band or hold the plank position for longer periods of time.

10. Always listen to your body and stop if you feel any pain or discomfort.

Push Plank Hold with Banded Alternating Leg Lifts

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand, hanging down by your sides.

2. Engage your core and slowly squat down, keeping your chest up and your knees behind your toes.

5. As you stand back up, lift your left knee up towards your chest, balancing on your right leg.

6. Continue alternating knee drives for the desired number of reps or time.

Thanks for explaining what exactly the program entails and how it will work! 🙌🏼

It was unclear how it works with the time and timer should have a 30sec interval. 

If stopping every 30 does not seem challenging at all. But let’s see if the program gets harder through time

Joelle

So good! Loving the low impact for my hormone health while still feeling the intensity.

The instructions for the scissor/cross-at-the-shins leg exercise was a bit confusing. The instructions say to keep legs bent and parallel to the floor, but the video shows the legs completely perpendicular to the floor bending at the hips. I wasn’t sure which one to follow. Maybe I misread the instructions?

The timer doesn’t work. It’s confusing to understand if it’s 30sec on 30sec repeat before moving to the next exercise or not. One way is a 14min workout. The other is a 28min.

Week 2 & mid workout I text my partner I’m so glad I came to this workout ❤️‍🔥

Awesome! Those ski jump things looked simple but holy moly did it get my heart rate up!

Candace

Genuinely confused on the structure of this program. I feel frustrated that I don’t know for certain that I’m following it accurately. The instructions are really unclear to me because there’s mention of moving from one movement to the next with no rest, but then also taking 30 seconds off between movements. Also, unsure about whether to do each movement 2 times per round, or just once. I wish there was better descriptions
