For this butt exercise, you can use a low step, like shown, or a taller box; the higher the platform is, the harder the move will be.
How to Do a Step-Up:
- Stand in front of a stool, step, stair, plyo box, or low, stable bench. You can do this move using your bodyweight or holding a kettlebell or dumbbells.
- Place your left foot in the center of the box.
- Push through your left heel to step up onto the box. Bring your right knee forward and up until it's at hip height. Keep your back flat and your abs engaged.
- Reach your right foot back and bend your left knee to lower your right foot to the floor with control. Step the left foot down to the floor to return to the starting position.
- Repeat on the other side. That's one rep.
- Do three sets of 10 reps.
