The Booty-Camp Workout: Toning Exercises for Your Butt, Legs, and Thighs

Slides in this Workout:

Laura Doss

Slide 2 of 11

Lunge 101

Many exercisers miss out on much of the butt-shaping magic of lunges because of common flubs that make legs do all the work, according to trainer Rich Barretta. Use his foolproof how-to and, ahem, firm the other cheek.

Lower straight down. "Focus on the up-and-down movement rather than the forward motion to really target the glutes," Barretta says. "Put a hand on your butt and sit down into it as a cue."
If knee isn't behind toes, step farther.
Land on heel. (Be able to wiggle toes.)

Next: Fly Away

It takes a few minutes, but you can always copy and paste the work out moves to a Microsoft Word file and then print that file.

The printing option doesn't work. It only prints out the first slide with the introduction. I was hoping to print this workout to take to the gym. Now I have to find another workout. Bummer.
