30 Minute Booty Boot Camp – Butt and Thigh Workout
Workout Details
Boot camp routines are made with the purpose of burning a high amount of calories in a short period of time and getting results quickly, and this workout is no different. Specifically targeting the butt and legs, this Booty Boot Camp is designed to burn fat, tone, and shape to give you legs that will stop traffic. As an added bonus, many of these moves are dynamic enough that they also engage the core muscles (abs, lower back, obliques), as well.
This program works by using the large muscles in the legs to burn off calories quickly to help you drop extra fat content. This helps to slim down the legs, hips and butt. On top of this, these exercises will build muscle content (if you don’t have it already) to create definition and shape so that your legs will taper from the thigh in towards the hip and knee, giving you the smooth curve through the quadriceps and hamstrings that is most often associated with dancers legs.
If you want to see results fast, the Booty Boot Camp works, if you just follow these recommendations. The first week, do this routine only three times with at least one full day break in between (do light cardio on your break days). You may want to do only one set of each exercise for your first try.
In the second week, build up to doing this video 4 times a week where you do this workout on days one, two, four, and five, along with a short cardio session (15-30 min) each day. On days three and six (the “break” days), do a longer cardio session of 45-60+ minutes; we suggest 15-20 minutes on a stair climber, 15-20 minutes walking on a treadmill with incline, and 15-20 minutes of cardio intervals to burn the most calories and see results even faster. Stay on the week two program until your legs are where you want them, then drop back to doing this routine twice a week to keep your legs defined and firm.
Because this routine uses the large muscles in the butt and legs it burns a lot of calories. In the thirty minutes of this video, we estimate that you can burn 240 - 330 calories. You can increase the difficulty of this routine and the number of calories burned by adding extra resistance (dumbbells, medicine ball, etc)
About the exercises in this routine:
Traveling Lunge Squats – This dynamic move not only hones in on the glutes and thigh muscles, it also engages your core because of the balance required to move from the lunging position, back to the squat.
3 Point Stutter Squats – There’s no need to tell you exactly where you’ll be feeling the burn during this move. Use nice controlled movements and those glutes will be protesting (don’t listen to them, you know what’s best).
Boxer squat – The dipping motion and pressing up on your toe on each side incorporates the calf and oblique muscles. Keep your abs nice and tight the entire time for best results.
Downward Dog with Leg Raises – The Downward Dog position gives you extra range of motion so that you can get an extra squeeze out of the glutes.
Straight Leg Deadlift – The butt is the primary focus of this exercise but your hamstrings, obliques, lower back, hip flexors, inside & outside thigh all play supporting roles.
Squat + Calf Raises – Multitasking in it’s finest form; the glutes, thighs, and calves all get worked over during this exercise.
Crossover Lunges – This lunge variation requires balance, which forces the core to work harder (which also means more calories burned). Because of the different foot positions, it incorporates inner and outer thigh in a more comprehensive way than a regular lunge does.
The Booty Boot Camp is a great go-to routine for when you want to burn a high number of calories & tone the lower body without any equipment at all. Do it consistently and as directed and you will quickly notice a difference in your body composition.

Great workout, just did it this morning and I felt the burn. thanks much for these awesome workouts.
This is a great workout! Lots of different moves working different muscles. I love it!
Thanks guys!
Will I be able to completely tone my lower portion if I religiously follow the above routine?
Sonu - I would say yes, definitely, but I would also recommend mixing it up & mixing it up often. You don't want to do the same routine over and over again and we have many, many lower body routines to choose from. Check them out & you will find more you like to mix this one up with!
does this workout also target the leg muscles?
Jaime - Definitely. Try it and you will have no doubt about exactly which muscles you're working!
I love this workout! This website is a life saver, i'm at home for the holidays and so have no gym membership here and it's England so it's rained almost non-stop for 4 weeks but these routines allow me to work out inside! Love it.
Hello just wanted to mention that your videos are great. I had a question, I am really skinny and want to get thicker tone legs and butt. I wanted to do this workout three times a week, but I was wondering if it would give good results if I did. Monday this video, Wednesday the Brazilian butt lift, and on Friday the other butt lift video? Or should I just stick to one?
I have a question similar to Alejandra as well, I'm also naturally very skinny and want to get bigger legs and butt, and overall more curvy figure but I'm not sure which combination of routines to do every week that won't burn too many calories or cause a more athletic figure.
@Alejandra & Artesha; It's good to mix the routines up to keep your muscles guessing. Any movement burns calories so you're going to have to increase your intake if you want to start exercising and maintain weight. Try the Curvy Body Workout or Booty Shaper! @Han I feel your pain about the rain...we are in NW Washington & it never stops.
can i mix up workout that target the glute inner and outer thighs ?? i want to follow this boot camp schedule so should i only use this workout for 2 weeks or each day use a different butt exercise ?
@alaa mohamed Using a different workout of ours each time would be great - keeping the muscles guessing is a good thing.
does this workout reduce your butt or does it tone it up
@ash26 - It tones, lifts, and shapes it. Couple with cardio & reduced caloric intake it could help reduce size, if you hold onto weights while you do it you can also use it to get a bigger booty!
Hi! I have a problem with my thighs. I am 5.5 feet and 134 pounds .My thighs are very puffy and have no muscle .Does this exercise help me make my thighs thiner and make me weigh less?(sorry for bad english)
You can't spot reduce. Building muscle (with workouts like this one) will help burn off body fat, which can help slim down the thighs.
Hello, does this workout give you a bigger/higher butt??? FYI, I am a "HUGE"" fan of fitness blender. Keep up the good work. ^.^
@lee- Thanks! It helps tone, shape, lift, etc. Building muscle does not necessarily make the body look bigger (it takes up less room than fat).
Just wondering if this is the best excercise to burn fat quickly on the thighs and butt?? and big favor do you have information from a healthy daily eating plan??? thank you so much x
Hi! I did last night (Thursday) this workout and my legs and butt hurt (i feel sore). I also did the 25 min abs on Wednesday and 33 min butt lift... I feel very sore and I and wondering if i should take a day off or continue with abs tonight (even if I'm not sure i can complete the workout)? I have a lot of cellulite on my legs and but and fat on my belly. The rest is ok :) Help pls!
I have been doing your videos (consistently) for about three monthes now. I have never been able to stick with any fitness routine very long, usually due to getting bored with the same thing over and over, not knowing what to do, and not having the motivation after a certain amount of time. I seriously LOVE you guys because you have helped me combat ALL that! I remember one of the first times I was looking at your videos and I noticed your comments to some people that they "should mix and match the workout videos"; I immediately took notice and got so excited, because I was always told that to get results you have to do the same routine all the time for at least a month and a half before switching. Needless to say, this made me want to give up after awhile from the boredom of it. But you guys have supplied a huge variety of amazing videos that I get excited to try out, and I love how thorough you are with explaining all the exercises; you have helped me get better and better! I totally notice a difference in my body; I love how my body looks being more toned and fit, and also I have noticed how it gets easier and easier for me to complete workouts (progress!!) and I have more energy! I wanted to write you this because I wanted to thank both of you soooo much for helping me like this!!! :-) Love you guys!!
I love your web site! For this workout I've a question. I already have muscled legs, I want to slim them. Do you think this exercise is appropriate for this purpose? Many thanks.
Thank you very much for your work outs, they are amazing, easy to follow, and so encouraging!
I had had "allergy" to exercise throughout my life (PE is the only subject I have ever failed!), but you have given me the motivation and the tools to make it part of my life.
Thanks!
This workout really makes you feel the burn in your butt before the first round is over.
Hi, when will u start to see results?
Can I do this exercise while planning to conceive. I am not sure that I am pregnant or not. Can u guide me, I want to reduce fat from stomach , thigh and butt.
I weigh 122lbs and I did it just like the video so appx how many calories do you think I burnt?
This video says "no equipment" but it uses weights for dead lifts. It would be good if that were updated.
This workout is so great)) Thank you guys!!!
I don't have to lose weight but I do need to do a lot of toning in my lower body. Specifically I need a butt lift! I also want to work out my abs! Right now I am currently doing the 30-minute booty boot camp - butt & thigh workout. I do this workout 5 days a week. I am not sure if I'm doing this right. Please let me know what you recommend I do to get my body where I want it to be. Thanks!
I love this routine, but do I really have to do all this cardio? I work out at home and don't have any cardio equipment? Will it work without? My BF percentage is below average already. I'm really looking for definition and more muscles without getting bulky.
Hi! First of all, thank you guys for your amazing job! we really appreciate it:)
This workout can help me to reduce cellulite in things and butt? I'm really interested on it
hey fitnessblender!
i, along with everyone else on here, would like to express my gratitude for your amazing videos. i'm currently an exchange student to japan and i don't know if you know this, but exchange students typically gain lots of weight.
your videos along with some changes in my diet have really gotten me motivated to lose not only my exchange weight, but all the extra weight i've been carrying since i was little. (endomorphs ftw) so anyway, thank you so much for helping and just being so accessible and wonderful!
lots of love from japan
I'm on the 8 weeks workout plan you guys created. I just completed the first month however, i only lost 5 lbs. I'm not happy with the results because i don't see alot of physical change and i lost my motivation to workout because the last 3 days of month one, i was where internet was not working properly so i didnt workout for those days. I dont know how to be motivated again to continue the 2nd month of the workout plan. Please , how can i stay dedicated and motivated to continue?
Oh my goodness. Love this. Legs felt like jello by the time I was done!
That will definitely burn tomorrow.
