For some reason, today, doing my lbwo, I noticed I have no exercises noted specifically for glutes/butt. I have quads/hamstring, calves, abs, but no glutes. Now, I do think what I am doing for q/h (squats and plie squats {which I love btw}) do work my glutes, but I thought it odd there was no a specific 1 or 2 exercises dedicated to glutes. Is this correct, or was my version missing something?

So if the book is correct as stated above, do I need to add specific glute work or is my squat and p/s sequence getting it done? If I need something else, what would you add? My lbwo is so short compared to ub, and to finish in 30m instead of 45m makes me feel like something is amiss I guess! lol (Yes, I do realize that just last week I was complaining about the length of them! )

The lower body things she has int the book that are lower body in gerneral but also include the glutes are squats, dumbell lunge, stationary lunge, dumbell plie, & deadlifts.
You can always add floor work such as hip lifts with both feet on the floor or stability ball or stool, or try any of those with one foot pointed to the celing and concentrate on one side at the time, or you can get in a table position on your hands and knees and take one leg back to hip level, bend at 90 degrees at the knee, flex the foot and thru the glutes, pulse it to the celing.
