BBR BUILD A BOOTY IN 6 WEEKS
Please purchase a set of ankle weights; I purchase mine from Kmart for about $8, and a
booty band. You will need both of these for your “action exercises” and phase two of
your program. I also recommend that you download an interval timer for your phone
for your hiit days and booty activation sessions. I use “SIT”, it is free and easy to use!!
Please read the BOOTY ACTIVATION page and implement this before EVERY.
SINGLE. WORK OUT. This will make a BIG difference to your results!!
Remember how important it is to focus on your technique and time under tension!
Always think about the muscle you are working and squeeze at the peak of the movement!
Do not rush things! I want you to always challenge yourself in your weight selection! You should be
struggling to get your last few reps out!

To achieve the best results from this program, you have to commit to it 100%!

Make the commitment to complete the entire program and give it your all!

You owe it to yourself! I promise it will be worth it and the results will be amazing.

IF IT DOESN’T CHALLENGE YOU, IT WON’T CHANGE YOU. Girls LETS DO THIS!

Reference Table
Set (A1, A2 These numbers and letters represent which exercises go together. For example, A1 is to be tri-setted with A2 and
etc.) A3. B1 is to be super-setted with B2 etc.

Sets How many times you are to complete the exercises. For example, A1, A2 and A3 are to be completed 4 times
through.

Reps The amount of times you do the specific exercise. For example, you are asked to do 15 squats and 20 Romanian
Deadlifts.

Tempo Tempo is the speed of the movement. For example, for Squats it reads 3030 you are to count 3 seconds down and
then 3 seconds up. DB Laying Hamstring Curls is 2010 being 2 seconds down and 1 second up. The first number
is always the muscle lengthening and then second number is the muscle shortening or contracting. If there is a
sequence like this 2220 it means two seconds down, two second pause at the bottom of the movement, two
seconds up, no break at the top of the movement. 1111 for example would mean 1 second down, 1 second pause at
the bottom, one second up and one second contraction at the top of the movement (eg squeeze at the top of your
squat)

Fasted Cardio, HIIT and Rest Days


What is Fasted Cardio?

Fasted cardio is cardio that is completed in a fasted state i.e after waking up in the morning
after fasting (sleeping), you would get up and go and do a walk etc without consuming any
food. FC is utilized for fat burning, research shows that by doing your cardio in a fasted state
upon waking, you can burn up to 20% more fat than if you had consumed a meal.

Research shows that exercising in a fasted state increases both lipolysis and fat oxidation
rates.
Lipolysis is the breaking down of fat cells for energy. Fat oxidation is the burning of this
energy by cells. Research also shows that the blood flow in the abdominal region is increased
when you’re in a fasted state, which is helpful because one of the key problems with the
“stubborn fat” is reduced blood flow.

Options of Fasted Cardio (LISS)

• Stairs or stepper
• Elliptical
• Incline treadmill walk
• Walk out side in nature
• Bike

NOTE: If you are under 20% body fat do steady state cardio (40mins) if you are over
20% BF do 20-30mins of fasted HIIT Training.

HIIT Cardio

High Intensity Interval Training. This type of training elevated your heart rate quickly and
then keeps your heart rate up and burns more fat in less time. HIIT increases the body’s need
for oxygen during the training and thus creates an oxygen shortage, causing your body to ask
for more during you recovery. This after burn effect is referred to as Excess Post-Exercise
Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) and is the reason why intense exercise will help burn more fat
and calories than regular training does.

Options for HIIT Cardio: 30 seconds on 30 seconds off

• Bike Sprints
• Skipping Intervals
• Stepper Sprints or speed intervals
• Treadmill sprints
• Elliptical Sprints
• Plyometric circuits (box jumps, jumping lunges, push up etc)

 
 
 

Rest Days

Resistance training breaks down body tissues and muscles, causing microscopic tears. Rest
days give your muscles, nerves, bones and connective tissues time to recover and rebuild.
When you implement excessive amounts of exercise without having a proper rest day and if
you don’t have adequate time for recovery you may experience decreased performance,
fatigue, altered hormonal states, poor sleeping patterns and a lowered immune system.
The rejuvenation process is so important. This requires adequate amounts water (2.5- 3L if
you are doing my guide), proper nutrition, good quality sleep (8 hours), ample amounts of
micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and recovery supplements. These things allow your
body to rebuild its tissues letting them grow back stronger.
Your rest day and type of rest will depend on how advanced you are and your intensity of
training. If you’re just now starting out in the fitness world, your rest day should probably be
a real rest day in which case you do not do any activity at all. A more experienced person
may choose an “active rest day”. This is where you won’t lift any weight or do anything
intense such as HIIT but you may do an activity like yoga or do some LISS cardio.

 
 
 

Glute Activation
Out of all the muscles we have the area that I get asked about most frequently is, of course,
the glutes. We all want to know what exercises to train to optimize development and which
protocols we should be implementing to ensure we are growing the all mighty peach.
Whilst the exercises used in your work out are important, it is imperative that we understand
the fundamental points for growing and shaping the glutes; MIND MUSCLE
CONNECTION AND GLUTE ACTIVATION.
The sad fact is that the reason most people cannot develop their glutes is because they cannot
activate or “fire” their glutes correctly during their training sessions. What this means is that
instead of your glutes doing the work, other parts of your legs are compensating; leading to
growth in the other areas, such as the hamstring and the quadriceps with the booty falling
completely short.
The first reason and also the most common cause that people suffer from underactive glutes
(AKA “glute amnesia”) is largely due to their sedentary lifestyle. “What do you mean
sedentary? I train every day”, you may be thinking. Yes, but what are you doing for the rest
of the day? If you spend the majority of your day sitting down, working a desk job etc. then
you are not using your glutes. It is as simple as that. Unfortunately, our glutes do not activate
much during the course of out day thus, the muscle tends to shut down and atrophy quite
quickly.
This is why it is SO important to use techniques to “wake up” your glutes before training to
have them working correctly during your training sessions.
The second reason ties in to the first one. If we are over compensating with other muscles in
our lower body workouts then we are more likely to experience injury or deterioration of
those muscles. If your glutes are being underutilized, you may be using other muscles or
tendons to do the work, such as your lower back for example or putting more strain on the
muscles around the knees because you consistently dominate with your quads. By having
stronger glutes it will help to prevent and reduce injury to these other regions by elevating
their load.
At BBR we know that in order to increase muscle growth, it is first necessary to know how to
activate the body part during all movements and exercises.
In simple terms, glute activation means to simply wake up the glutes. It is the connection
between brain and muscle (mind muscle connection) that tells your glutes to get ready to
work! Glute activation should be done before your workout; however, you can also use them
during your work out as part of your super set to keep your glutes awake.
Being successful at anything in life begins with intent. If you want to have better use of your
glutes you need to train your brain and muscles to do so. I have had so many girls say to me
“I cannot feel it in my glutes”, and I always say, “what are you focusing on” and are you
“squeezing”?
Whilst training it is so important to have your mind focus specifically on the muscle you want
to grow – direct ALL of your attention to feeling the movement in your glute for
example. If you cant, shift your stance slightly, align your hips etc. until you can feel what
your doing. Also SQUEEZE, follow through with the movement – take it slow AND DO
NOT RUSH. Over time, persistency will pay off and eventually your body will become
better at naturally activating your glutes without you having to try so much.
Here are my top 4 activation “go to’s”:
• Banded hip thrusts
• Ankle weight kick ups and pulses
• Frog kicks – SQUEEZE

 
 
 

• Low banded squat side steps


As you can see my favorite ways to activate my glutes involve little to no weight. Why the
lack of weight? When we use weight we concentrate on the lift and the load not the muscle or
the squeeze… this is all about activating the booty. CONCENTRATE ONLY ON THIS
HERE!

rest between sets.
Set Sets Reps/Time Exercise Tempo Comments
A1 4 10 Reps (10 BB Squat Hold 2020 Begin with the barbell supported on top of the
seconds traps. The chest should be up and the head
facing forward. Adopt a hip-width stance with
hold for the feet turned out as needed. Descend by
each rep) flexing the knees, refraining from moving the
hips back as much as possible. This requires that
the knees travel forward. Ensure that they stay
align with the feet. The goal is to keep the torso
as upright as possible. Continue all the way
down, keeping the weight on the front of the
heel. Once you reach the bottom, hold for 10
seconds. At the moment, the upper legs contact
the lower legs reverse the motion, driving the
weight upward.
A2 4 15 BB Good Mornings 3020 Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Place the BB on your back, keeping a tight core
and upright torso. Bend forward at the hips,
lower your torso until you feel a stretch in the
hamstrings or until your back is almost parallel
with the ground. Squeeze with your glutes as
you contract back up to the starting position.
B1 4 15 Glute Hip 2030 Begin by adjusting the equipment to fit your
Extensions body. Place your feet against the footplate in
between the rollers as you lie facedown. Your
knees should be just behind the pad. Start from
the bottom of the movement. Keep your back
arched as you begin the movement by flexing
the knees. Drive your toes into the foot plate as
you do so. Keep your upper body straight, and
continue until your body is upright. Return to
the starting position, keeping your descent under
control.
B2 4 12 Reverse Hack 2020 Stand into the hack squat back to front. Face
Romanian Deadlifts should be facing the pad, resting your forehead
on the pad. The hack should be resting on your
shoulders, and your knees slightly bent. This
will be your starting position. Lower by moving
your butt back as far as you can. Keep your head
looking forward, and your shoulders back. Done
correctly, you should reach the maximum range
of your hamstring flexibility just below the
knee. Any further movement will be
compensation and should be avoided for this
movement.

 
 
 

C1 4 8 Single Leg Hack 2020 Place the back of your torso against the back
Squats (each leg) pad of the machine and hook your shoulders
under the shoulder pads provided. Position your
one leg in the platform using a shoulder width
medium stance with the toes slightly pointed
out, with the other straight out in front. Now
straighten your leg without locking the knees.
Begin to slowly lower the unit by bending the
knee as you maintain a straight posture with the
head. Begin to raise the unit by pushing the
floor with mainly with the heel of your foot as
you straighten the leg again and go back to the
starting position. If you need to use the resting
leg to spot you (let it slightly push up to help
you get all the way up).
C2 4 12 Cable Kickbacks 3020 Hook a leather ankle cuff to a low cable pulley
(Each leg) and then attach the cuff to your ankle. Face the
weight stack from a distance of about two feet,
grasping the steel frame for support. While
keeping your knees and hips bent slightly and
your abs tight, contract your glutes to slowly
"kick" the working leg out directly behind you,
at full extension, squeeze your glutes for a
second in order to achieve a peak contraction.
Now slowly bring your working leg back down
to the starting position.

width stance with the toes slightly pointed out
and knees slightly bent. Rest your hands on your
hips. Keep your neck neutral and maintain a
straight back. This will be your starting position.
Descend into a squat by pushing your hips and
butt backwards. Continue down until the upper
legs are at or just below parallel to the floor.
Inhale as you perform this portion of the
movement. Once you reach your bottom
position, begin to push through your heels to
ascend upwards.
Generate enough power to jump upwards. As
you jump upwards, bring both feet inward
towards one another so that you land with your
feet a few inches apart. Be sure to land on your
toes.
B1 4 24 DB Walking Lunges 2030 Begin standing with your feet about hip-width
apart and holding dumbbells in your hands
down by your side. Step forward with one leg,
flexing the knees to drop your hips. Descend
until your rear knee nearly touches the ground.
Your posture should remain upright, and your
front knee should be in line with your front foot.
Do not allow your front knee to go forward
beyond your toes as you come down, as this will
put undue stress on the knee joint. Drive through
the heel of your lead foot and extend both knees
to raise yourself back up. Step forward with
your rear foot, repeating the lunge on the
opposite leg.
B2 4 15 Leg Extension 2020 Seat yourself in the machine and adjust it so that
you are positioned properly. The pad should be
against the lower part of the shin but not in
contact with the ankle. Adjust the seat so that
the pivot point is in line with your knee. Select a
weight appropriate for your abilities.
Maintaining good posture, fully extend both
legs, pausing at the top of the motion. Return to
the starting position without letting the weight
stop, keeping tension on the muscle.

Stance) on the platform spaced shoulder width apart.
Ensure that you are pushing your knees out
always, not allowing them to cave in. Maintain
good spinal position with your head and chest
up. Lower the weight by flexing the hips and
knees, continuing as far as flexibility allows. Do
not allow your lumbar to take the load by
moving your pelvis. At the bottom of the
motion, pause briefly and return to the starting
position by extending at hips and knees.
C2 4 12 DB Side Lunges 3020 Assume an athletic standing position, with the
(each leg) knees and hips slightly bent, feet shoulder-width
apart, and the head and chest up. This will be
your starting position. Staying low, take a slow,
lateral step to the right. Keep your toes pointed
forward and stay low. Extend the left knee,
driving your weight to the right, flexing the knee
and hip into a side lunge. Maintain good posture
through the entire spine, keeping your head and
chest up. Pause at the bottom of the motion, and
then extend through the working leg to return to
a standing position, transitioning into a lunge to
the opposite side.

A1 40 seconds Medicine Ball Crunches Lie on an exercise ball with your lower back curvature pressed against the
spherical surface of the ball. Your feet should be bent at the knee and pressed
firmly against the floor. The upper torso should be hanging off the top of the
ball. The arms should either be kept alongside the body or crossed on top of
your chest as these positions avoid neck strains (as opposed to the hands
behind the back of the head position). Lower your torso into a stretch
position keeping the neck stationary at all times. This will be your starting
position. With the hips stationary, flex the waist by contracting the
abdominals and curl the shoulders and trunk upward until you feel a nice
contraction on your abdominals. The arms should simply slide up the side of
your legs if you have them at the side or just stay on top of your chest if you
have them crossed. The lower back should always stay in contact with the
ball. Exhale as you perform this movement and hold the contraction for a
second. As you inhale, go back to the starting position.
A2 40 seconds Flutter Kicks Start by lying flat on your back on a mat with your arms by your sides and
your palms down, or if this is too hard, under your bum, Extend your legs
fully out with a slight bend in your knees. Lift your heels about 6 inches off
the floor. Make small, rapid up and down scissor-like motions with your
legs. The key is to focus on having your midsection do all the work and to
keep your abs constantly contracted throughout the exercise.
A3 40 seconds Leg Raises Use a bench if there’s one available, if not lie on the floor. Letting your legs
hang off the edge will increase your range of motion. Place your hands under
your glutes with your palms facing down. Keep your legs as straight as
possible, and hold a dumbbell between your feet if you want added
resistance.
A4 40 seconds Side Plank Pulses Start on your side with your feet together and one forearm directly below

Set Reps/Time Exercise Comments


A1 60 seconds Tricep Push Downs/ Tri Attach a straight or angled bar to a high pulley and grab with an overhand
Pushups grip (palms facing down) at shoulder width. Standing upright with the torso
straight and a very small inclination forward, bring the upper arms close to
your body and perpendicular to the floor. The forearms should be pointing
up towards the pulley as they hold the bar. Using the triceps, bring the bar
down until it touches the front of your thighs and the arms are fully
extended perpendicular to the floor. The upper arms should always remain
stationary next to your torso and only the forearms should move. After a
second hold at the contracted position, bring the bar slowly up to the
starting point. Breathe in as you perform this step.
A2 60 seconds Bent Over Plate Rows Stack the needed number of plates on top of a small plate on the ground,
allowing you to easily grip the rims.
Adopt a shoulder-width stance in front of the plates. Bend at the hip with
your knees slightly bent, keeping your back flat. Grab the weights from the
side and let them hang below your chest, arms extended. This will be your
starting positioning. Maintaining a flat back, pull the weights to your chest
by flexing the elbows. Do not jerk the weight.
A3 60 seconds Alternating DB grab a dumbbell in one hand and stand with your feet shoulder - width
Snatches apart. Keeping your back flat, bend at the hips and knees as if you were in
the starting position of a deadlift, and let the hand with the dumbbell hang
just below your knees. As you rise, pull the weight straight up in front of
your body until it reaches the middle of your chest, then tuck your elbow
and fling the weight overhead - but don't let go. It's important to let the
momentum generated in your hips move the dumbbell most of the way
upward-don't just stand up and do a shoulder press.
A4 60 seconds KB Sumo Squats Hold a kettlebell at the base with both hands and stand straight up. Move
your legs so that they are wider than shoulder width apart from each other
with your knees slightly bent. Your toes should be facing out. Slowly bend
the knees and lower your legs until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
Press mainly with the heel of the foot to bring the body back to the starting
position.
A5 60 seconds Plate or KB Swing Stand with your feet placed outside your shoulders, either pointing straight
ahead or turned slightly out, whichever is more comfortable to you.
Clench your hands into loose fists. Hold your arms out in front of you,
parallel to the ground, with elbows locked and hands touching. Pull your
shoulders down into your waist, away from your ears. You should feel
some tightness under your armpits. Those are your lats. You may never
have felt them like that before, but this sensation is crucial to the swing, so
remember it. Tighten your abs like you're bracing for a punch. Don't bend
forward, though. Just try to lock your ribcage to your pelvis. Finally,
squeeze your glutes as tightly as you can, like you're pinching a coin
between your cheeks. Your body should form a straight line from your
shoulders through your hips and knees down to your

 
 
 

A6 60 seconds OH Walking Lunges Begin standing with your feet about hip-width apart and holding a weight
plate above your head! Step forward with one leg, flexing the knees to drop
your hips. Descend until your rear knee nearly touches the ground. Your
posture should remain upright, and your front knee should be in line with
your front foot. Do not allow your front knee to go forward beyond your
toes as you come down, as this will put undue stress on the knee joint.
Drive through the heel of your lead foot and extend both knees to raise
yourself back up. Step forward with your rear foot, repeating the lunge on
the opposite leg.
A7 60 seconds Squat to Upright Row Start with feet shoulder width apart, knees slightly bent, holding a barbell
in a narrow grip ossition. Squat down slowly and at the same time pull the
BB up with your elbows leading until you reach shoulder height. Squat
back up and repeat
A8 60 seconds Push Up – 2 Mountain 1 Push Up – When you reach the top of the movement bring your legs to
Climbers - Repeat your chest one at a time, then repeat push up and so on.
