The Best Exercises for Building a Better Butt

Define Your Behind: The Best Exercises for Building a Better Butt

If you want to know how to groom a body part like glutes, you turn to a pro. And that’s what we’ve done.

Tiffany Procopio, a newly crowned pro figure competitor who has one of the best bodies we’ve ever seen, invited us to the gym where she trains in Crofton, MD to share with us her state-of-the-art secrets of building a better butt.

Here Tiffany, with TUA’s very own Adriana Cesar, gets down to work to show us how to strengthen, shape and tighten your glutes. “I think it’s important to train glutes at least twice a week with intensity,” says Tiffany, who just had a great finish at the Kentucky Pro this year and plans to take the stage at the Arnold in March. Beyond squatting, lunging, box jumping and glute extensions, Tiffany likes to wear a weighted vest to get maximum results and fat-burning on glute training days. Other secrets to a smoother derriere? Tiffany recommends drinking a gallon of water a day and plenty of cardio, especially on the stairmaster and incline treadmill (where, you guessed it, she also wears her weighted vest). Watch here as she leads us through some of the glute exercises that helped her win her pro card this year.
