Get in shape the simple way and build a booty to rival any celebrity with this four-move HIIT the Butt routine from international PT and wellness coach Rachael Sacerdoti.

Flaunting a toned behind has become a number one pastime for numerous celebrities including Kim Kardashian, Addison Rae, and Emily Ratajkowsi. Queens of pop Beyonce and Madonna are also not shy when it comes to showing off those perfectly honed glutes, while we mere mortals can only dream of a bottom so peachy. And who can forget Kylie in those gold hotpants?!

Thankfully, help is at hand as Rachael Sacerdoti, founder of the It’s So Simple method, shares the secret formula to an impeccable derrière with four firming, sculpting, and lifting moves.

“How to achieve a great-looking bum is one of the most common questions I get asked.” Says Rachael. “Working your glutes is vital at any age, and I believe everybody can attain a firmer bottom. The ‘secret’ is consistency and lifting weights,” she adds.

Championing strength training, Rachael discloses the key to building your glutes faster is to master progressive overload. “By pushing yourself slightly further than your last workout you’ll keep your muscles adapting and growing with each movement.” Advising her clients to start light, but with enough weight so that they can get through 75% of each exercise comfortably, “the remaining 25% should challenge you” Rachael explains, you can then begin to add a kilo (or 500g) each week. “This is where the real magic starts to happen,” she adds.

The smart girl’s way to a Rihanna-approved bottom, follow Rachael’s HIIT the Butt routine 3-times a week for a posterior worth showing off.

Repeat four times with a 30-second break in-between rounds.

Rachael’s Top Three Tips for Getting the Maximum Butt for your Bucks

1. Progressive Overload. Once you have your form down to a tee, begin to add more weight, or up your reps by one each time.

2. Form is everything. Like all exercises to reap the benefits and see real rewards, perfecting the move and ensuring your form is on point is vital. When it comes to using weights, your technique should be your number one concern. Lifting incorrectly will compromise your workout and can lead to serious injury. This will also knock your confidence and your enjoyment of the workout. Slow your movements down and if possible, always work out in front of a mirror.

3. Fuel your body with high-quality protein post-workout. Brilliant for aiding muscle repair and recovery, when strength training you should up your daily protein intake to 90g for major gain.
