Gluts Workout With Fitness Ball

Video Transcript

"You could never exercise your glutes too much so you want to make sure they get enough exercise but also you want to stretch them as well. So we will do a stretching exercise after they are done. You want to make sure you are on the ball but the wider your base is, see how wide my arms are, the more stable environment. The closer my arms are, it is a little bit harder because the base is not as strong and it is not as wide. So my feet are wide apart as well. So my hands and my feet actually match their equal distance for the base and the support. What we want to do is flex our toes. This is pointed and this is flexed, so we are flexing our toes. What you want to do is you are flexing your toes but you are actually on your toes. For your starting position, you want to bring those feet together, bring those heels together, squeeze the heels together, squeeze the inner thighs together and go back to your starting position. You want to squeeze it up and release it down. That is your starting position. Squeeze your legs up and down. You should feel that also in your hamstrings as well because your hamstrings are actually helping your glutes by pulling those legs together and releasing it down. So it is a great exercise for your hamstrings and your glutes. You should really feel the majority of your movement and your glutes if you are doing it correctly. Your abs should definitely be tightened, should try and really squeeze your abs but the majority of the movement is coming from your glutes and getting your legs up in the air and squeezing your heels together making sure that those toes are flexed.
