Tone Those Trouble Zones – Glutes And Inner Thigh Workout!
“Trouble zones”…You know…those areas we all seem to want to work, but struggle to get to look the way we want.
Areas like…The triceps…”the bra fat”….the glutes…and the inner thighs…to name a few.
And while we know we can’t spot reduce, it doesn’t prevent us from feeling like we’d still really like to work those areas and do all we can to tone and make them look their best.
That is why I wanted to share this Glutes and Inner Thighs “Trouble Zones” Workout.
This workout will activate and strengthen your glutes and inner thighs using a combination of compound and isolation exercises. Not only can it target those “trouble zones” to help your legs look stronger and leaner, BUT it is actually an essential workout if you’ve ever had low back, hip or knee pain.
It is an especially great workout for all of you runners as well!
It will help you build core, glute and inner thigh strength to improve your movement patterns!
While you can’t spot reduce, you can use a combination of compound and isolation moves to really work those areas for the best results possible!
So try this Tone Those Trouble Zones – Glutes And Inner Thigh Workout!
