1. Sumo Squats
A Sumo Squat is a lower-body exercise that works your hamstrings, calves, quads, glutes, inner thighs, and hip flexors. The best part is sumo squats can help strengthen your lower muscles invariably. For this exercise, you will need to:
- Stand straight with your feet slightly wider than hip-width apart, making sure your feet are out.
- With your hands clasped together and closer to your chest, lower yourself, ensuring your back is straight and hips pushed outward. At this point, your knees will be bent forward.
- Come back to the starting position by pushing through your heels and engaging your inner thighs at the same time.
- Ideally, you should work the squats in three to four sets of eight to fifteen reps.
A sumo squat is best considered for beginners and should be performed two to three times a week to successfully build your lower body, including your buttocks.
