Are you ready for a challenge that will lift and firm up your backside? Join me for the rest of July for #bootycamp with this no equipment needed circuit that you can do at home. Complete this entire circuit one time through for the next two weeks, and if you need more of a challenge you can complete it two to three times through. For an added booty burn, find the nearest hill and walk up and down it for at least 20 minutes, three times per week.
