Here’s a fun alternative exercise to add to your routine for weight loss or muscle gain!  This will firm up your butt and the back of your thighs while working your core.  If you try this exercise and it seems to be too easy, then try using one leg at a time, that will definitely turn up the intensity!

Start with your feet hip width apart and centered on the BOSU.

Push down into the BOSU with your feet lifting your hips up high. You will feel your hamstrings working. Hold this position for 30-60 seconds. Do not lift your shoulders or neck off the floor and keep your upper back flat (source)

     Don’t have a bosu???  Try doing this on the floor with either one leg or 2.  This exercise is easy to do anywhere.  If you need more resistance, then try holding some weights on your hips as you perform the exercise.
