This article is for the ladies who want people to think “how the heck did she fit in those jeans?!” How is this possible you ask? Weights. By utilizing moderate to heavy weights with certain booty blasting exercises, you can build the backside of your dreams. Throw in some expert advice, hard work and proper nutrition... Before you know it, Kim Kardashian will be asking YOU for some advice.



Before I give you the best booty building workout of 2015, there is one major detail you need to focus on while performing these exercises. The SQUEEZE. What’s that? The squeeze is the last part of the movement in which you contract your gluteal. Without this key factor, gains will be hard to notice, if noticeable at all. One last detail before we get started with the program- you will need a full range of motion on every exercise. As Lil’ Jon would say …“Get Low.”
