A Firm Backside

Here is a butt-toning tip.

Most every gal in the gym is familiar with the lunge. You see hordes of women doing lunges... some trainers even have them walking around outside doing lunges.

Good idea... bad execution.

Do your lunges like this:

1. One leg at a time. Burn out the muscle with mental and physical focus. Do not do one leg then the other, or walking lunges. This is not only harder on the knees, it
removes the mind/body connection that focusing on one leg at a time can give you.

2. Then after you do one leg, then the other, rest 1 minute and then do a set of 20 rep squats using dumbbells, or on a Smith Machine. After this, repeat the lunge exercise, then the squat, then you're done.

That's two "giant sets" -- two sets of one-legged lunges and two sets of squats.
That's it. You can do this in under 7-10 minutes flat. And that's the only thing that
will be flat, if you know what I mean. ; )

Not only are you done with your legs, your butt will be screaming for mercy and more
toned practically by the time you get to your car... assuming you can walk to your
car! I'm kidding of course, but seriously -- a great workout for the booty.

Build Muscle in a Short Time
