Interesting Glute exercises

[Stacy]

Somebody else posted this at VF, thought I'd share here. If you scroll to the bottom there is a video with some pretty cool glute exercises using body weight and/or a band.

These band exercises look great! I'd love to see Cathe do a "Band Camp" workout like that to really hit the glutes/legs.

I believe that is gonna be the primary focus behind ICE To The Mat.

I always love using bands. Particularly with the glutes, hips and posterior delts.

I like the idea of doing that sort of thing for 10 minutes or so as an 'activator' before other work. I'm going to try a few of those moves. Thanks for posting.

I'm just finishing a 3.5 month body weight, Horizontal Conditioning rotation. I've gained muscle, and become very defined. Because of the HoCo my abs are back. I agree with what Erin has stated here. It can be done.

Karen,
Do you mind sharing your rotation? I have been very tempted by body weight exercises. I have HC volume 1-3 and boot camp. Love them! Did you add in any other instructors? I can't imagine doing HC any more than twice a week! I agree, nothing gives you better abs!

I agree, HoCo is intense. My bodyweight workouts were Mark Lauren's "You Are Your Own Gym," and "EFX." If I felt like throwing something else in the mix I would. Mark Lauren, and HoCo, were the main players. Like I stated before, it was a great rotation for me. If you have any questions, please ask. More than happy to help. I did Mark on MWF, and HoCo on TTh. Sat I did some kind of cardio (Hiit.) Sunday was rest or Yoga. I alternated weeks of YAYOG and EFX.
