Having a tight butt will not only help you look good in pants, it will strengthen your legs as well. Your balance will improve and your chances of falling will decrease. You do not need any expensive equipment to do many exercises for a tight butt. You can achieve results by being consistent and diligent. Be sure to warm up for five minutes prior to starting any exercise routine.
Supine Bridge
Lay on a flat surface on your back. Put your hands at your sides, with your palms facing down. Bend your knees until your feet are firmly on the ground. Slowly breathe in as you start this exercise. Lift your hips off the ground and squeeze your butt muscles together. Slowly exhale in this position. Hold for five seconds. Make certain your shoulders and neck are firmly planted on the surface and not moving. Relax and return to the prone position. Repeat this exercise five times. This exercise also strengthens your abdominal muscles.
Get a more intense workout by doing an advanced supine bridge that mimics marching. Lift your hips as far as you can off the surface, but this time lift one leg slightly off the ground. Slowly lift your other leg up as if you are marching. Slowly lift each leg off the ground, one at a time. Do five marching movements with each leg. Return to the flat position. Repeat this exercise another five times.
Isometrics
While sitting in a firm chair, tighten your butt muscles. Tighten the right one and hold for five seconds. Release and relax for a couple of seconds. Tighten your left butt muscle and hold for five seconds. Release and relax for another couple of seconds. You can also tighten both muscles at the same time and hold for four seconds.
Butt Raises
Lay on your back on a flat surface. Lift your legs and place your feet onto the top of an exercise ball. Slowly lift your hips and butt off the floor. Tighten your butt muscles when you have lifted yourself as far as possible. Hold your muscle contraction for five seconds, then release the squeeze. Slowly lower yourself back to the prone position. Repeat five times.
Leg Lifts
Find a sturdy chair to hold onto. Stand up, placing your feet about shoulder-width length apart. Hold onto the chair's back. Bend your right leg behind you as you are going to kick your butt with your heel. Slowly lift your leg. When your leg is bent as far as possible behind you, hold this position for five seconds. Release the tension and return your leg to the standing position. Repeat this exercise five times with each leg. Make certain your butt and hamstring muscles do the work during this exercise, not your knee.
