Not squats or lunges! This 10-minute Pilates workout sculpts, lifts, and tones your glutes, using just your bodyweight

A woman doing Pilates.

When you hear the phrase "strong glutes," you probably envisage squats or lunges with a set of the best adjustable dumbbells, or a bar in the gym. But I’m here to tell you that you don’t need heavy weights or hours in the gym to strengthen and sculpt the largest muscle in your body — in fact, a few Pilates moves can help you build stronger glutes at home.

Below, we share a ten-minute workout, designed to sculpt, lift, and tone your glutes, from physiotherapist and Pilates instructor Lilly Sabri. As well as helping you lift heavier weights and run faster, strong glute muscles can help reduce lower back pain, improve your posture and stability, and prevent knee and ankle injuries.
