Bum Flex

Roll over onto your stomach with your forehead resting on your folded hands. Point your toes inwards. Take a deep breath and exhale slowly through your mouth. Now tighten your buttock muscles. Hold those muscles tight for two seconds and then let go. Do this exercise two more times.

The purpose of this exercise is to release tension in the buttocks area, and pointing your toes inwards helps you to isolate your buttock muscles from your leg muscles. Some people may sense or experience a slight cramping in the soles of the feet. If this happens to you, rotate your feet so they are pointed outwards.
