[FONT=&quot]FEB 2011[/FONT][FONT=&quot] Rock Bottoms Rotation

Hi Everyone! Upon your request I have revised and updated the ROCK BOTTOMS June 06 rotation. That means this month's rotation is all about the “bottom line” [/FONT]J[FONT=&quot] But remember, hard work pays off twice as fast ( and really shows off that newly sculpted bottom) when it is accompanied by a very clean diet. So get ready to blast some butt, burn some butt, firm some butt and last but not least, of course, kick some butt!!!! This is a very advanced rotation that will really shock your system, however, it is best suited for time periods when you are in peek condition. If at any time the rotation gets to be too aggressive 1) modify whenever needed and/or 2) put a rest day in place of a high intensity cardio day and/or 3) do only one workout on Saturday.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]The following "Bonus Butt Workout" is to be done whenever you see "BBW" listed on a given day[/FONT][FONT=&quot]:

Bonus Butt Workout (abbreviated as BBW):[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT][FONT=&quot]1) One minute of squats with a challenging barbell weight chased by 20 seconds squat jumps.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
2) One minutes of walking lunges with a 10 pound weighted vest (or with 8 pound hand weights per hand) chased by 20 seconds of deep controlled power scissors.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
3) One minute of Plie squats with a challenging barbell weight chased by 20 seconds ice breakers.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
4) Two minutes of firewalkers with a medium tension band (4 to 6 steps each direction until two minutes are up)…chased by your favorite choice of words for me, wink![/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
5) Barbell Deadlift...2 slow sets of 15 reps [/FONT]

Wow! I saw people requesting this rotation on the boards but now that I see it - OMG! I'm afraid I'll be "choosing one" on the Double Shot days but thanks for the options! :D
 
Oh my gosh, ouch!!! After this, I will either have a rock bottom or not be able to walk.

Thanks Cathe (I think)

Substitution?

Hello,
Is there something I could substitute for the Walking Lunges?
Thanks,
Lisa in Louisiana
 
Ok, so I get up too early to do a workout in the morning. I have to do my workouts in the afternoon, so I'll have to pick one or another. This rotation scares me a bit if I don't get a rock bottom from this I don't know what will :)
 
I'm starting right now!

and I'd like to know the same thing...can I substitute something for walking lunges...and is doing 300 of them safe?
 
My jaw is on the floor. That's an incredible rotation, Cathe! The Double Shots in Week 3 might just kill me. Thank heavens I'm still doing the STS 5.5 month rotation! But this one will go into my back pocket for a future date, for sure!
 
ok, I've never done this much lower body in a week, let alone entire month! I have to be honest, I'm a bit concerned about my lower body getting bigger from working it too much. Is that possible or crazy to think that
 
Hi Lisa,

Yes you can alternate back lunges for 50, then front lunges for 50 and keep going until you hit the same number that was requested for walking lunges.

IE: Right back lunge equals one lunge, left lunge back equals 2, right lunge back equals three, left lunge back equals 4...etc.

Everyone responds to exercise differently. For some even just one lunge bothers their knees so as you can see, you have to judge this for yourself. No doubt this rotation is very advanced so you should do as many as you can or as many as you are comfortable doing.

Hi Christine...hmm, I just answered this and when I hit "submit reply" it didn't take it and then vanished all together. Grrrrrr. Ok, I'll give you an abbreviated answer since this is all I have time for.

Everyone is different and responds differently to certain exercises/rotations. I like to make a wide variety of rotations to suit a wide variety of our participants needs. This is without a doubt an advanced lower body rotation so only do what you can do or prefer to do. If at some point you feel the rotation doesn't suit your needs, then simply stop doing it and pick up where you left off with another one of my rotations.

Good luck with everything :)
