Shock The Glutes






















Want a new exercise for the glutes and hamstrings? Try the slider reverse lunge next time you are doing hip dominate movements. Here's how:


Level 1: Slider Reverse Lunge

Stand with feet together, place the ball of your left foot on the Slider.

Slide your left foot back; Right leg will bend at 90°. Slide your left foot

up to start position, pulling up with the glute of your right leg. Finish

reps and switch sides. **You should feel this in your glutes and some in

your quads of the stationary leg. The sliding leg is just going along for

the ride. Do 3 sets of 10-15 reps.

Level 2: Slider Reverse Lunge with weight (not pictured)

Hold dumbbells in each hand. Stand with feet together; place the ball of your left foot on the Slider. Slide your

left foot back; Right leg will bend at 90°. Slide your left foot up to start position, pulling up with the glute of your

right leg. Finish reps and switch sides. You can make your core work harder by holding the weight on one side.

Do 3 sets of 10-15 reps.
