Challenge for the week: burn 4200 calories(600 per day) and work on strengthening your glutes for 9 mins, 2 time this week, and then eat some beans (any type) to check it has worked ;-)

I did this workout as a punishment in one of my other challenges once this past week (Friday) and on Sunday, by butt still felt it.

Here's the video of the low impact workout to do:

    Yes you can their was only one thing I struggled with and that was a coordination issue I could do one leg but not the other. I got there in the end though.

    The video helps so you can actually follow along, but the movements are listed above, try it I think you will like it. I run, elliptical, squat & this workout still made my behinds sore so I know if I kept @ it then my backside will reap the benefits.
