BootySculpt: Power Pilates #2

Instructor Ashley Dunn is back with the second workout of the Bootysculpt series, where she will lead you through a strengthening full-body workout with an emphasis on the glutes. You will need two sets of lighter dumbbells and an unweighted workout ball or pillow for inner-thigh and core work. Key aspects you will find during this workout include full squats, pulses, isometric holds, and active engagement of the posterior chain. The glutes will be fully awoken through the warm-up and first working track, but don’t forget about the biceps, shoulders, calves, back, and core, as these areas are all worked in subsequent tracks. You will perform exercises such as squat holds with a bicep curl into a press, static lunges (with the progression to pulses), glute kickbacks, the core wide-stance squat with its many variations, and plank knee taps. Ashley continually reminds you where you should feel the burn and how to feel the burn even more if you’re up for the challenge (we know you are!), all while providing safety and alignment cues to ensure you do not injure yourself. This workout is all about the booty, and it’s all about YOU, so don’t forget to make this your own workout, using Ashley’s guidance as a foundation for how you work out.
