Glute Isolation Exercises You Can Do Throughout Your Day!

Even if you are doing regular workouts, it’s likely your butt needs some extra attention to be lifted and toned once you reach that midlife madness era. These glute isolation exercises are quick, easy, and effective – and you can do them any time you are standing around your house! 

I don’t claim to have a one-and-done exercise for how to get a round butt, but a combination of workout routines and isolation exercises for glutes will surely do the trick. And, let’s face it. We are busy as heck and don’t have 2 hours to spend in the gym every day. These glute exercises help you do little bits here and there.

Glute Blaster to Get Rid of Mom Butt!

As we age, our muscles tend to tighten in some areas and stretch in others. Mom butt is the result of aging and inactivity. 

You are probably like most of us, you sit a lot. Sitting too much has so many negative effects on our health and muscles. Getting up every hour for even just a couple of minutes to walk around will help, but adding in a few extra exercises – like simple glute raises – will get you better results.

While you would otherwise be standing around doing things like washing dishes, brushing your teeth, talking on the phone, or waiting for dinner to cook, it’s pretty easy to add in a quick workout using this glute isolation workout plan.

Glute Isolation Exercises At Home

I do the following glute activation workout whenever I think about it, all around the house.

Do them for about 30-60 seconds on each side, rotating through. By doing all of these gluteus maximus exercises, you will target all three of the muscle groups of the butt. Make sure to engage your glute muscles and core with every exercise.

1- Standing Leg Lift – Lift the right leg to your side, turning your toe slightly in to the floor, raising your leg about knee high while keeping your core tight. Perfect activity while dinner is simmering on the stove!

2- Standing Leg Lift Shortened – Same as above except this time movement will be the highest point and halfway down for a short, pulsed movement.

3- Passé – Standing on one foot, raise one leg, bend and place foot behind knee at an angle. With short pulse movements, move leg up and back.

4- Arabesque– With one leg behind you, toe resting on the floor, lift leg at a slight angle up and out. This isn’t a directly straight back leg lift. Think of a graceful ballet dancer when performing this exercise.

5 – Squats – Using different variations you can add in some squats while brushing your teeth, waiting for water to boil, etc.

This simple glute isolation workout is what I do throughout the day as I am working around the house. You will be surprised how these exercises add up to a great workout.
