Don’t focus on this area solely for the sake of appearances.
No one would argue that a shapely posterior is an asset to any body,
but did you know that firm, strong glutes are good for much more than
creating a butt that's pleasing to the eye? Strengthening this muscle
group will improve your speed and increase your endurance and range of
motion when you're running, walking or playing any of a wide variety of
sports. Plus, keeping this area toned has the often-overlooked benefit
of helping you stand up straight the rest of the time. Even if you
can't get to a gym to do a full glute workout, you can improve your
rear view whenever you're standing in line or sitting at your desk by
clenching your butt cheeks together and holding the contraction for a
count of five, then slowly releasing it; do 10 repetitions. |
