What are Booty Bands
Have you ever seen small looped resistance bands and wondered what they could be used for? Perhaps you are looking to increase the strength and size of your Glutes but are unsure of the best way to do so. Booty Bands are a small resistance band that you put both legs into and pull up to about mid-thigh height. Booty Bands will provide resistance to many exercises that engage the glutes, adductors and abductors. These portable, lightweight bands will enhance your workouts, grow your glutes and give your butt the lift and look that you’ve been trying to achieve!
How to Use a Booty Band
So, you’ve got your bands and now are wondering how to use a Booty Band. Booty Bands are very simple and easy to use! In general, most Glute exercises will require the Booty Band to be positioned just above the knees. Simply step both feet into the Booty Band and pull the band up the legs just above the knees. Make sure that the Booty Band is flat against your legs (not twisted) to ensure maximum comfort during your exercise. Depending on the exercise you are doing, you may require different positioning of the band. A quick google image search will show you where athletes position the band for each specific exercise.
Booty Bands can also be used around the ankles, feet or even arms to give you a full-body workout!

Why Is A Booty Band Useful
Booty Bands are useful because of every single reason we described above! For those who are new to exercise, Booty Bands can be a less intimidating way to settle into a workout routine. The cost, size and durability of Booty Bands also provide great benefit for those who would like to workout from home and may have limited space.
Out of all of these benefits, the main reason why a Booty Band is useful is that Booty Bands are a simple way to add resistance to a number of bodyweight movements. For instance, if you enjoy performing the bodyweight squat, try adding a Booty Band to your squat, around the thighs just above the knee.
You will surely feel the burn after a few reps as stabilizing muscles that are only partially engaged during the bodyweight squat, are now fully engaged from the added resistance of the Booty Band.
Booty Band Belt
The Booty Band Belt is a slightly different type of Booty Band that aims to achieve the same objectives as the conventional Booty Band by tightening, toning and lifting the Glutes and muscle in the lower body. The Booty Band Belt is a belt that has two resistance bands attached to the back that will strap onto your feet so you don’t have to worry about the band changing position on the body or coming off your feet. You can change the resistance of the Booty Bands at the back of the belt.
You can perform many exercises with the Booty Band Belt such as Spidermans, Leg raises, Leg Curls, Donkey Kicks, Plank, Toes Touches, Ab Twists, Flutter Kicks and more!

Fabric Booty Bands
Booty Bands come in different materials. You can find Rubber or Latex Booty Bands and Fabric Booty Bands. Rubber or Latex Booty Bands tend to roll up the thighs during exercises, and some people do not enjoy the risk of them snapping off during a Booty Band Workout. Fabric Booty Bands can offer more security as the texture of the bands provides more grip on the body and prevents the band from rolling up the thighs. Regardless of which type of Booty Band you choose, you will still receive all of the Booty Band benefits that we listed above. The material of your Booty Band just comes down to personal preference!
