Athletes are defined by their ability to move. Great power athletes move quicker, jump higher and longer than their opponents, not to mention the average human being. Most people to not develop and benefit from powerful glute muscles, but power athletes need them to succeed at their chosen sports. They are key in producing explosiveness and speed. As previously stated; these athletes don't workout to obtain a high and round booty, they have an athletic butt as a consequence of their training.
The basic drills presented are introductory movements relating to acceleration, horizontal jumping and vertical leaping. These drills place much emphasis on glute activation and not sport-specific. They'll serve to prepare you for the sport-specific activities and workouts presented throughout the remainder of this series. All of the drills presented in this part will commence from the universal athletic position.
Acceleration is defined as an increase in the rate or speed. Acceleration drills are designed to assist in increasing initial explosiveness in order to reach maximum speed as quickly as possible. In addition to enhancing a basic athletic skill, you'll be doing a lot of tush toning.
Jumping or leaping are great activities to wake up your glutes. Jumping, be it horizontally or vertically, requires maximal explosiveness or propulsion. Your rear-end muscles form the base for these movements. Track & field's field event athletes and volleyball players developed their booty's by continually practicing their jumping abilities.
