If you are looking for ways to build a great peach and some legs that go for days, you've got to incorporate the “butt basics” into your workout routine.

With the right moves, you'll be on your way to not only looking great but feeling good too! These simple exercises can help protect your lower back, which can be put at risk during moves like squats if your glutes haven't been built up enough to handle heavy weights. 


These are some of our favourite exercises to help build the foundations for heavier sessions in the future! Use your body weight or use a stretch band to add an extra element!
