Brazil Butt Lift Bum Bum Workout

Click Here to See My Progress

When Beachbody’s Brazil Butt Lift first came out, I wasn’t sure I wanted to add it to my workouts. Something about a workout designed specifically to shape the backside intrigued me though. One of the things I wanted to work on was what I considered to be a flat bum bum with excessive hip pockets. So, here I am telling you about my first full workout with Leandro Carvalho’s Brazil Butt Lift program.

Let me start off by explaining that “bum bum” is pronounced “boom boom” and is Brazilian slang for butt. The Bum Bum workout is Leandro’s signature workout that he has used to help supermodels get in shape.

When I was reading the materials for this program, I must have skipped over the part about the Bum Bum workout being an “intense cardio and lower body sculpting” routine. I was expecting the butt sculpting exercises that were on the cards. I wasn’t expecting the cardio portion. I was out of breath from beginning to end during this 35 minute introduction to Brazil Butt Lift!

It felt pretty good. I could feel my muscles working deep; however, it wasn’t the intense sculpting pain I usually get when I work the backside. When I did the Slim in 6 program, the butt exercises on the floor were killer! Leandro keeps you in a move long enough to feel it but then, moves you into a different exercise to change the stress on the muscle group.

This is a 30 day program with five workouts (not including the Booty Basics which demonstrates how to do the exercises.) There are three customized programs designed to give you maximum results depending on your “booty blueprint” and goals. (Learn more about what comes with Brazil Butt Lift.) I look forward to using this program and writing about my experiences.

I will be returning to my ChaLean Extreme program and will probably work both programs together. As you might have read in past posts, I had an injury that slowed me down for a while. Staying fit sometimes means listening to your body and always modifying whenever and however needed. I stay motivated by mixing up my Beachbody workouts. I share what I learn to help others and…it gives me one more reason to keep pressing play!
