9 Home Exercises to Tone Your Glutes & Hamstrings

The gym has always been my place to escape, clear my mind, strengthen my body and gain confidence.

So when the gym closed (thanks COVID-19), my home became my gym and the only equipment I have to work with are a few dumbbells and resistance bands.

Recently my workouts have been short-lived (lasting no more than 40 minutes) and I haven’t felt like my strong self, so I designed this 60-minute at-home workout to target 2 primary areas of the body: Glutes and hamstrings.

Each exercise below will strengthen, tighten and tone your backside and I guarantee you’ll be feeling it tomorrow.

  • 10 to 20 lb. Dumbbells (optional)
  • 1 Resistance Band (optional)
