The best-kept secret to a better butt

The best way to get a better butt? Work that incline!
 
"Increasing the incline on a treadmill or running or walking uphill is a great way to burn calories," says Kelly Gonzalez, a fitness consultant in Manhattan Beach, Calif. Plus, by heading uphill, you'll target your glutes, hamstrings and calves without putting too much stress on your joints.
 
To give it a try, hop on a treadmill and warm up for three minutes at an easy pace and 3 percent incline. Every three minutes, increase the incline by 3 percent until you're at 15 percent. Then, work your way back to the start. Do this four times a week and say hello to short shorts.

srry to bother you, but if you look above I asked a question, but I forgot to put Mod, Mod, Mod, so if you could answer that now that would be great
Thanks




Sure, babe! For your legs and thighs, the best exercises to do are lunges, squats, heel presses, and lotsa running. Smile

This is a really REALLY good workout! After I got back from the gym after my first time trying this workout, my calves (Lower legs) were looking slightly more toned - GL workout are really good - especially this one, for total anti-runners like myself!

Thanks! This totally works! Do you have any exercises for the legs and thighs? I searched page after page after page and I can't find much. Any ideas?
