Walking Workout: A Firmer Butt in 30 Minutes

Skater stride
Sarah Kehoe

Skater Stride

Targets: Quads, butt, hips, obliques, back, and triceps

  • While walking, take a large step diagonally forward to the right with right foot, toes pointing forward (not to right). Sink into a lunge, bending both knees 90 degrees, as you bring left elbow toward right knee and swing right arm straight back. (Beginners, do a dip rather than a lunge.)
  • Press off left big toe to bring left leg forward, brushing it past right leg, then swinging it forward out to the left diagonal (like a speed skater) to plant left foot, toes forward.
  • Do 25 steps to each side, alternating legs.

Take stairs or walk up and down an incline instead.
