‘Build that booty!’ Vicky Pattison reveals her fab bum workout plan
Geordie stunner offers her tips to help you get beach ready on day four of her exclusive summer body guide
JUNGLE queen Vicky Pattison is back with day four of her exclusive summer body guide – and today, she's helping you build that booty.
Reality star Vicky says: "Here comes summer – and I’m here to get you in shape with my guide to losing weight and feeling great in time for your holiday this year.
"Workouts to make you feel great and burn fat, meals to keep you filled up and snacks to stop you craving sugar.
"Today’s circuit is all about toning up your bum, getting rid of excess fat in the area and helping to banish cellulite.
"It’s all about a pert behind at the moment.
"It can be hard to know how to tone this area but with this quick circuit, believe me, you will feel the burn.
"You will see the results and feel great when you put on your bikini this summer.
"To start with, complete a short warm up: 30 seconds jogging on the spot, 30 seconds of star jumps, and 30 seconds of wide leg stance – keeping feet still while twisting side to side.
"Once you have completed this you are ready to start your circuits."
Exercises
Do 20 reps of each and repeat four times. Allow a 60-second break between circuits.
Ball hamstring curls
LIE on the floor on your back with your feet resting on top of an exercise ball.
Lift your hips off of the ground. Flex your knees, slowly pulling the ball as close to you as you can, then return to the start position.
Hip bridges
LIE on your back with your knees bent, heels on the floor.
Raise your bum off the floor until your back is in a straight line from your knees to your shoulders, and hold for two seconds before lowering back down.
Dumb-bell dead lifts
STAND straight with a dumbbell in each hand, your arms hanging in front of you.
Bend knees and push your bum back until your hips can’t go further. Hold and slowly push back up.
Hip bridge walk outs
REPEAT the start of the hip bridge move but hold once at the top.
Slowly walk each foot forward, balancing on your heels and keeping your hips up, then walk back again. Lower gently at the end.
