Build your glutes
Fire up the big muscles for big results

Back2Action’s excellent routines are perfect for mixing and matching in the gym, and this is one of our favourites for gaining improved power – and getting across those blades of grass quicker as a result.
We start with a Romanian deadlift on a Bosu ball – which trains balance and core strength, as well as getting those explosive muscles firing quicker; then there’s a hurdle, which will help you get stronger, fast legs – as well as compete better at corners; then there's the superb all-round exercise that is the pendulum lunge, followed by the Bosu wall volley challenge. Try now for great results.
