glutes

fatstatus Posts: 4 Joined: 2001/03/27	2001/03/27, 11:45 PM How do I lose my butt. I know it's not one of those major muscles that everyone talks about, but it's an area that I need to lose. I've got bad knees and as a result running long distances is very hard. Is running my only option? What are some exercises (cardio or weight) I can do to decrease?

Position your feet so high on the platform that your toes are over the edge, push with your heels and keep your back flat and straight against the back rest. Don't be afraid to keep piling on the weight, I go 8, 45lb plates on each side. Most folks underestimate their strength on this exercise. The big boyz put all the weight they can fit and then throw their training partner on top for extra lbs. so 8 plates really ain't that much. Try it for your glutes and prepare to sit on a pillow for a few days afterwards:)
