Best Exercises for Firming Your Rear

As you may have noticed, I am focusing on my backside. There are plenty of exercises and activities that will work this area and can be used in any number or combination. Select from the following and/or use variations on these classics:

Exercises

• Squats
• Lunges
• Step Ups
• Hip Extensions
• One Legged Dead Lifts
• Swiss Ball Hamstring Curls

Activities

• Walking
• Hiking
• Running
• Cycling
• Martial Arts

You can make many routines from the above items -- using some of the same techniques I have been using (super sets, giant sets, compound sets, sets to failure, drop sets, etc.) and either use a gym machine (treadmill, stationary bicycle), exercise class (spin, kickboxing) or get outside (walking, hiking, running).
