Story Highlights
Have you ever thought about just how important your glutes (butt) are? We bet you haven't. And we don't blame you for the same. Many people look at exercising as a pathway to weight loss alone. However, regular exercise is actually the path way to a long, healthy and disease-free life. Building glutes, for example, is one of the most common fitness trends right now, says Sweat trainer Kayla Itsines. "They are actually a lot more important than you might think. Not only do the glutes make up the largest muscle group in your whole body, but your glutes also help to support your hamstrings, lower back, core, and pelvis," she informs in the caption of her recent Instagram post.
Workout that targets your glutes
A toned butt looks great, of course. You need to do workouts that target the muscles in the area, regularly. Squats and lunges are some of the most effective exercises for your glutes.
