The best exercises are those against abdominal fat, where complete body tension is needed to get a toned, trained and defined body.
The exercises can also be done one after the other with a few breaks after the exercises to have a continuous activity. This ensures that the musculature is intensively promoted and a lot of energy is burned. However, in order to specifically combat the curves around the hips and buttocks, the following exercises are particularly suitable. All exercises can be varied and intensified by the intensity of the repetitions or execution: Knee bend Lungee steps lateral lungee steps intensive buttock training by lying on your side and lifting the leg or prone position and heel pushes towards the ceiling.
