What matters on this model

  • gym80 source: targets the glutes.

  • gym80 source: uses a foot support or platform to fix the position.
  • gym80 source: has a source-listed construction detail.

Why use it

Use the Bootymizer for targeted glute and hip-joint work. Treat the listed adjustments as part of the exercise, not as optional details.

Muscles worked

  • Main load: Controlled load.
  • Stabilization: trunk muscles help hold position.
  • Should not hurt: joints or lower back. If they do, reduce load and check setup.

How to set up

  1. For the Bootymizer, first check its source-listed detail: has an adjustable seat position.
  2. Adjust the pad or support so the pelvis stays still.
  3. Place the working leg on the lever or platform where the machine indicates.
  4. Hold the handles before starting the movement.
  5. Choose a load that lets the hip move without lower-back compensation.

How to perform

  1. On the Bootymizer, move smoothly through this model's working path.
  2. Keep the pelvis square instead of rotating with the working leg.
  3. Pause briefly at the working end of the range.
  4. Return the lever under control without losing the support-leg position.

Common mistakes

  • Using the lower back instead of the hip joint.
  • Rotating the pelvis or torso toward the working leg.
  • Cutting the range short without controlling the end position.
  • Placing the foot or leg unstably on the lever.
  • Ignoring this model-specific detail: has an adjustable seat position.
