3 PLYOMETRIC EXERCISES TO INCREASE GLUTES
Are you looking to enhance the strength and size of your glutes? If you’re tired of traditional exercises and want to take your glute training to the next level, plyometric exercises are the way to go.
Plyometrics, also known as jump training, involve explosive movements that engage your muscles in a unique way, leading to increased power and muscle growth.
In this article, we will explore three effective plyometric exercises specifically designed to target and strengthen your glutes. Get ready to power up your posterior and achieve the sculpted, firm glutes you’ve always desired!
Front Box Jump
- Use a PLIO box and place it about 15 centimeters in front of you.
- Get into a squat position with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- From the squat position, jump up using your entire body, including your arms.
- Land on the balls of your feet on the top of the box as gently as you can.
Plyometric Lunges
- To perform plyometric lunges, start by standing with your feet hip-width apart.
- Take a step forward with your right foot and lower yourself into a lunge position, ensuring that your right knee is directly above your ankle.
- From this position, explosively jump up, switching the position of your legs mid-air, and land with your left foot forward and your right foot back in a lunge position.
- Repeat this movement, alternating legs with each jump.
- Plyometric lunges not only engage your glutes but also challenge your balance and coordination.
Jump Squats
- To perform jump squats, start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Lower yourself into a squat position, keeping your back straight and your knees aligned with your toes.
- Then, explosively jump up as high as you can, extending your hips and engaging your glutes.
- Land softly back into the squat position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
