4-Part Summer Ready Workout Series: Glutes

4-Part Summer Ready Workout Series: Glutes

The lower body can be the toughest place for some folks to get fit. It’s also one of the areas that’s easiest to injure, because so many lower-body workouts are high-impact, and can lead to knee and hip pain if you don’t perform them correctly.

In our fourth and final summer-inspired workout post, Clarence Hairston, Fitness Manager from Bay Club SF Tennis, guided us through a glute and quad workout that made everything (even sitting) feel sore the next day. If you’re looking to tone your glutes, thighs, and quads with a safe circuit, this lower-body workout is for you!

Clarence’s tip: Protect your knees by not letting them splay out or bend inward. They should remain pointing straight ahead, over your toes.
