“It’s all about getting that s*xy look,” comedian Bill Bellamy shares as he workouts. The actor, comedian and producer who gained fame for helping to coin the phrase “Booty Call”, has been keeping his signature slim look for years and at the age of 40+, it seems as though Bill has the formula for staying fit and having fun while doing it.
Core Strengthening Exercises “I like to do core strength exercises, not heavy weights,” explains Bill. “I’m not trying to be a bodybuilder. I just want to be a fit person.” Here’s a few examples:
Side Balance Crunch Begin with left knee and left hand on the floor, right arm straight up. Extend right leg so your body forms a straight line. Pull right knee toward torso and right elbow toward knee. Straighten arm and leg. Repeat 10 times, then switch sides.
Crazy Cardio “I use basketball first to get my heart weight up,” says Bellamy. Using your own body weight as resistance, there’s a number of cardio exercises you can do, such as:
Alternating knee lift Standing tall, bring one knee toward your chest without collapsing rib cage; twist opposite elbow toward knee. Alternate sides.
Side-to-side leap Place any long, thin object (such as a broom) on floor. Leap sideways over object, landing with feet together. Booty Call Squats
The term that first made Bill famous is also the inspiration behind these butt-blasting workouts to shape, lift and firm the buttocks:
Dumbell Deadlift Squat Set a pair of dumbbells on the floor in front of you. Bend at your hips and knees, and grab the dumbbells with an overhand grip. Without allowing your lower back to round, stand up with the dumbbells. Then try exercise while lowering the dumbbells to the floor. It’s said the keys to good health are sweating and laughing every day and Bill Bellamy is certainly proving this sage advice works.
