10 minute glute workout at home to isolate and activate the entire glute muscles, hips and hamstrings for booty activation.
For this at home glute workout, all you need is a mat! You can also use any small mini band or if you have a larger resistance band simply double it up for extra resistance though I do sometimes like to use no equipment to increase my mind to muscle connection within the glutes.
The Glute exercises are performed for 30 seconds, and straight onto the next exercise!

Below are some important tips in order to really get the most out of this workout!!!
When performing the straight leg lifts (side lifts or straight leg lifts) endure leg is tight; squeeze your quad!!! Again, when doing the pulses, same applies: keep that leg tight!!
During the donkey kicks, it is important to aim the HEEL to ceiling and not the foot to increase the activation so really aim the heel of foot to ceiling!!!
During the front lying raises, squeeze the glutes to lift the thighs of the mat!
These specific exercises are perfect for a beginner to glute activation exercises and for those not new, these are a great warm up, a main workout or burnout to finish!
I hope you enjoy this quick yet intense glute workout! And remember to really keep the moving leg tight!! And heel to ceiling during those donkey kicks!!!

oh my goodness, I don't think any 10min booty workout I have done has burnt so much!
Did it on 27/3/25
Tried my best not to take extra breaks (just a couple very brief ones). Did the plank too but with plenty of rest.
Omg my butt was dieing
This killed my booty in the best way possible


Uff, this definitely had my glutes begging for mercy
loved it
Anyone else not able to keep their leg at a 90 degree angle to their body when doong side leg raise?
Thank you!!!!!!

Omgoodness the burn!! That was wicked! Love it!
Been doing this workout once a week for like 6 months and people are seriously complimenting my bum!

Minute 1 etc

My favorite thing about your workouts is that it's hard to walk afterwards. I LOVE that feeling so much. Thank you so much for what you do.

Bien! pero no siento que sea de principiante, es como intermedio XD
Please do you have a workout routine to grow the booty? Today is Jan 10th 2024. BTW I love all your videos
Activation before EPIC, day 41, second round. Thanks, Caroline!
How many reps should I do per set?

U don’t fool around. Could only do about 2 plus minutes of planks, but I’ll get there

The instructions and information CG puts under the video state that “using a resistance band is optional.”


If you completed this workout with a resistance band, you must be related to The Hulk. Buns of steel! My tush was on FIRE by the halfway point. Especially with no breaks or variation of exercise. Massive fatigue for those abductors.
Love this
Omg! Those circles were evil! Loved 'em!
Im dying,,,,


my glutes super burned,,,
Such a great finisher!! Completed after epic 3 day 31 glutes and hamstring workout.
Favorite training. Merci
