Definitely! Honestly her and me just watched a few "grow your booty" type videos on YouTube and a lot of them are centered around band work since it isolates the glutes to intensely, so we picked out some exercises for her. This is what she does:I will look into those. I have these other rubber ones that are marked as “heavy”. I use them for leg extensions and a sort of modified leg press but I have grown out of them so to speak. I need something with more resistance as I am having to stack up more bands. Thanks!
Circuit: 2-3 times | Reps |
Seated Abduction | 15 |
Goblet Squats w/ Bands | 20 |
2 Squats + 3 Squat Pulse | 8 |
2 Squats + 5 Squat Pulse | 8 |
Donkey Kicks | 15 |
Glute Bridges | 15 |
Straight Leg Raises | 15 |
The squat/squat pulse is 2 full Squats then a little minor squat at the bottom of the rep. It really gets the glutes burning.
Now, I am not trying to imply you need to grow your booty haha. You have a nice booty and are making amazing progress! It just came to mind after you mentioned the knee problems, but it seems like those have subsided, which is awesome! Regardless the bands are cheap, high quality and handy to have it you ever are feeling like it's acting up and you're sore and "kneed" to give it a break (bad joke, sorry lol)
Edit: also, for the squat/squat pulse, 1 rep is the entire 2 Squats + 3 or 5 squat pulses. So it's like 16 Squats and 24 or 40 squat pulses total with the b ands on the whole time. As I said, this is pretty brutal. After Barbell squats and leg extensions too.
