No Need to Stand! Work Your Butt With These Floor Exercises

Since this move requires no equipment, you really have no excuse to skip it! For a bigger burn, flex your butt for five seconds at the top of each move, or hold a yoga block between your knees as shown.

• Lie flat on your back on a mat with your knees bent and your arms at your sides. Feet should be hip-distance apart.
• Slowly raise your pelvis up toward the ceiling to a point where your body will be at about a 40- to 45-degree angle relative to the floor.
• At the top of the movement, be sure to really flex your butt for one second — try to make it a long second.
• Now slowly return to the start position to complete one rep.
