Hippity Hoppity Bunny Butt Burn
Print Workout Here

What better way to celebrate Easter than with a cute little bunny! This workout is fun but sweaty! It’s only 24 minutes of your time and it’s gonna be awesome!

What you will need:

Just yo’ sexy self and weights (I used 20 and 10lbs – but dropped weight quickly because of my back)

Warm-Up:

running on the spot + Easter Burpees (just a burpee really) + squat open arms + Squat arm circles

Workout: 50/10, 4 x, 3 different sets

Set 1: Basket Swings – Grab one heavy weight and bring your legs wide. Lower into a squat bringing the weight between your legs. Swing the weight up while coming into a standing position. You want the weight to stop at eye height. Use the power of your legs to swing that weight up; it shouldn’t hurt your arms. Be sure to keep your belly button in tight and squeeze your bum when you come to standing. You can push your hips forward slightly as well which will help release any back tension.
Set 1: Bunny lunge hop, right – With your right leg forward, bend it as deep as you can while you take your left leg straight behind you so you’re in a ‘runner’s lunge’ and then bring it up and ‘hop’ on your right foot for a real burner!
Modification for knees: Skip the ‘hop’ and do runner’s lunges instead
Set 1: Bunny lunge hop, left – same but on the other side
Set 2: Carrot Crushers – Laying on your back and your knees bent, lift your toes so your heels are digging into the ground. Lift your hips high and squeeze your bum. With your hips in the air grab one weight and bring your arms straight up. You are going to bring the weight down to one side of your head while making sure your elbows stay directly over top of your shoulders so we work those triceps. As you lower the weight, lower your hips. Switch sides for your crusher every rep. You want to try to get your hips high enough that there is no dip in your hips. You want to feel this ONLY in your bum and not in your hamstrings (back of your legs). You may feel this in your lower back. Listen to your body here, you are working your lower back as well so you will feel it working but if it gets too much then take them slower but still high. Take a break or two and let your back relax all the way down to the mat. Less properly is better than more wrong or not as high.
Set 2: Bunny On It’s Back – Laying on your back crunch up and bring your knees in to your chest. Staying up off your shoulders kick your legs out on an angle, like you’re pushing something away. Repeat this pushing/kicking/bunny running motion
Modification: Same idea however instead of kicking out on an angle bring your legs straight up
Set 2: Egg Passes – Grab a weight and lay on your back bring your legs and arms straight up. Keeping your arms as straight as possible bring the weight straight across your body towards the floor. As you bring it to the right side your right arm will bend slightly but your left should remain straight. Your left shoulder will pop off the floor that’s fine. MAKE SURE that your hips don’t swing from side to side though. You have to keep your core tight to make sure they stay still and really get this into your abs.
Modification: You don’t have to use a weight here, do the same motion just without weights.

Cool Down/Stretching

Complete 5-10 minutes of nice gentle stretching.

High Fives For Sweaxy Times!
Nicole

just finished this one!!! got through it all… really noticed that my ab strength has increased with this despite them not being visible. Thanks Nicole!!

  Thats the best part! You want your core and back nice and strong to help push you through everything else to help make them more visible :) To me it’s way better to have a strong core then to just have it look like you do. :)
