Elevated Monster Walk with Mini Loop Booty Bands
Shape your backside by toning all areas of your glutes. Elevated monster walk with our booty bands combine step ups and lateral walks, which strengthen the entire muscle group -- particularly the gluteus medium. This functionality is great for building stability and strength while running, jumping or performing lateral movements. The booty bands add an additional dimension that helps increase glute activation so you get more overall benefit from each rep.
