London - It is the derriere that captivated the country at her sister’s wedding.
Now Pippa Middleton has decided to share the secret of how she achieves her toned behind – and keeps it in shape.
The answer is a simple 30-minute total body workout that includes “plié squats”.
The 31-year-old – dubbed Her Royal Hotness ever since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s wedding in 2011 – has been given a monthly column in Waitrose Weekend Magazine in which to share her diet and exercise tips.
She already writes for the supermarket’s food publication Waitrose Kitchen and now plans to share her “personal philosophy of healthy eating and exercise’”
She swears by four key exercises – ladders, plié squats, wall pushes and the “classic plank” – that are “quick and great for toning all over”.
Each exercise takes around two minutes to perform, and she recommends a 30 second break between the moves with a two minute rest at the end of each circuit.
For those who are keen to emulate Miss Middleton’s famous behind, the squat and the plank will be of most interest as they are designed to strengthen and trim the gluteal muscles that make up the buttocks. - Daily Mail
