Today I started my new training program and nutrition plan..
I trained my back and a small amount of chest today. I don’t like to work chest but I did go ahead and lift but with very light weight. I also did some squats (not in the plan). I try to do something for my butt at least every other day. I’m really focused on keeping my butt firm! Anyway, I will do measurements, weight, and pics weekly for anyone who wants to follow along. My nutrition plan is going to suck. No carbs. I only get carbs from my two servings of fruit and my veggies throughout the day. It will take me probably about a week to adjust. I always get a headache when I cut out my complex carbs but I will do anything to lean out! I pretty much pigged out this weekend. I wanted to get my last taste of ice cream. LOL Twelve weeks of sticking to this will hopefully get me to where I want to be!!

You should perform glute activation exercises on a daily basis as well as stretching your hip flexors.
You should perform the following as part of your workout warm up on upper body days or lower body days:
Mini band side steps or x-band side steps (2X15 per side)
Floor bridges (15 - try to use your glute only and not your quads)
Bird dogs (10 each side)
Let me know if you cannot find out how to do them online.

good luck!! Regular sit-ups also work for the butt as well. Sounds strange but it’s true.
