Rounder Glutes

Hey everyone,

Came across this fire hydrant variation.

Could not refrain myself from sharing.

Anyone tried this?


ETA: Executed this variation today the 7th of may and managed 16 reps only. I could not do more because
of the intense burn. I felt on both legs. The leg that burnt the most is leaning/sinking leg on left of the screen.

Hmmmm ... partial reps, maybe another 100 rep challenge with a lighter load. Looks like it may be easier on the knees but maybe harder on the lower back. If you include this in your workout this week, let us know how it went!
 
All kinds of interesting exercise variations out there to try. My problem is, if it 'aint in a Cathe workout, then I'm not doing it (ie: I don't typically do "extra credit" weight work. The only "extra credit" exercise I'll typically do is walks or hikes).

If I had a gym membership I'd probably try some of these. But then I'd likely stop doing my Cathe workouts!

I will just try on the step and see How I feel.

I think with a folded mat and risers one can execute it at home.
Keeping a full range of motion is the real deal.

one can check the form through a mirror.

ETA: I have just tried it and felt I need to master it and do not need super heavy weight
After getting used to it I will increase the weight. It is very challenging. Yes the hamstring
are shut off. :D :D :D I actually like it . high step, folded mat and 7 risers === I am not very tall.

To be fair. Everything does get worked throughout cathe's workout and rotations.
We do not really need to add extra.

That being said, variety is always good.

I love Cathe's new moves. Especially the B stance deadlift/One leg deadlift
It feels great. oh I also love the forward hinged one leg lunge that one is my favourite.
:D I feel it straight on the cheek:D the maximus one;)

Hey Everyone ,

Just wanted to report here that I have done more of fire hydrant variation above. The sinking one illustrated by Nicole.

Instead of doing the usual , I prefer the sinking to increase the range of motion while executing slowly. I did it at the end of STS 2.0 body part legs.

It's an intense variation cause both legs works while being on a staggered all 4 plank. That was my own bonus cherry on the top, to wrap up my me time. I loved it.

Good day everyone
