Squat
The squat is an easy exercise to work your glutes. Squat to 90 degrees and left yourself back up. Make sure your core is engaged and your glutes are tight. The movement of your hips should be such like that when you sit back into a chair. Be careful that your knees don’t cross your toes for the perfect squat.

Lunge
Stand in a split stance with your toes pointing forward. Make sure your core is tucked in and the body is upright and straight. Use your back leg to go closer to the ground. Press down in this position and lift yourself back up.

Donkey Kickbacks
This is the perfect exercise for working the glutes. Bend one leg and kick backwards. Again, it is very important that you keep your core engaged. To make it tougher, squeeze your glutes in and perform the exercise in small pulses. You can lean on a chair to give you support.

Side leg raise with kicks
This exercise works the hips. You can use a chair for support and leave it as your legs get stronger or when you want to make the exercise tougher. List your leg sideways as high as you can. You should feel the burn in your glutes and hips.

Wide leg sumo squat
The wide leg sumo squat is the best workout for your inner thighs. Keep your legs wide apart and your back straight and perform a simple squat. You can also do this exercise in small pulses for that extra burn to your inner thighs.
