So, let’s break it down—what’s in this killer routine, why it works, and how you can make the most of it.

Why Target the Side Booty?

Before we jump into the moves, let’s talk about why isolating the side glutes (aka the gluteus medius) matters. This muscle isn’t just for looking good in jeans—it’s crucial for:

• Hip stability (goodbye, wobbly squats!)

• Better posture (no more slouching like a sad potato)

• Injury prevention (weak side glutes = unhappy knees and lower back)

Cassey’s routine is designed to activate and fatigue this often-neglected area with small, controlled movements—no heavy weights needed!

The 8-Move, 10-Minute Side Booty Blast

The workout follows a 1-minute per move, 15-second rest format, keeping things quick but brutal. Here’s the menu of pain (I mean, gains):

1. Pointed Butt Lift (Right) → 2. Fire Hydrant (Right)

3. Pointed Butt Lift (Left) → 4. Fire Hydrant (Left)

5. Clamshell (Right) → 6. Mermaid Leg Lift (Right)

7. Clamshell (Left) → 8. Mermaid Leg Lift (Left)

Now, let’s break down each move so you know exactly what you’re in for.

Move 1 & 3: Pointed Butt Lift

• How to do it: On all fours, lift one knee (toe pointed to the ceiling) and pulse tiny movements without letting the knee drop below the hip.

• Why it burns: Tiny pulses = maximum muscle engagement. You’ll feel this in your under-butt (hello, gluteus minimus!).

• Cassey’s tip: “Hips square to the floor—no cheating!”

Move 2 & 4: Fire Hydrant

• How to do it: Still on all fours, open your leg sideways (like a dog at a fire hydrant—hence the name).

• Why it burns: This isolates the gluteus medius like nothing else.

• Cassey’s motivational push: “Don’t halfway do anything—do it like you mean it!”

Move 5 & 7: Clamshell

• How to do it: Lie on your side, knees bent, and open your top leg like a clamshell.

• Why it burns: This move is deceptively simple but will have your side booty screaming.

• Cassey’s warning: “This looks peaceful, but oh my gosh—it’s insane!”

Move 6 & 8: Mermaid Leg Lift

• How to do it: Still on your side, extend one leg forward at a 45-90° angle and lift.

• Why it burns: This targets the side booty from a different angle, ensuring full exhaustion.

• Cassey’s hype: “You’re a mermaid! A very sore mermaid.”

Short but intense – Only 10 minutes, but every second counts.

Final Thoughts

If you finish this workout and your side booty isn’t throbbing, you might’ve accidentally skipped to the cooldown (just saying). But if you do feel that sweet, sweet burn—congrats! You just activated muscles that most workouts ignore.
