The Edge Booty Extreme Program is designed to be a lifestyle change.

It is not a quick fix fad diet that is not sustainable.

This program has plenty of food and a good amount of GOOD carbs. Carbs are

not your enemy when they are being used properly. You must have carbs in your

diet to build muscle and have energy to function. They are the brains source of

energy and your body needs them in order to lose weight in a healthy way.

Carbohydrates are NOT Evil!

Eliminating your carbs to lose weight is

not sustainable and not the answer. To

lose weight and keep it off simply follow the

EDGE BOOTY meal plan.. It doesn’t get any

easier than that. Don’t over think it. Just

follow it, don’t cheat, be patient and the

results will come..

Our plan is proven through thousands of

success stories. No need to search anywhere

else. The answer is in your plan.

It will take a couple weeks of consistency for your metabolism

and body to adjust to the new diet and workouts and to

start to see visible results

The most important thing is to never GIVE UP.

You can literally do this program multiple times and get

amazing results. If you do continue the program beyond

the 30 days make sure to progress with the workouts and

intensity as you are getting stronger and in better shape.

Before you Get S

tarted

(3)

The more you put into the program the

more you will get out of it. You will need

dumbbells for some of the exercises.

When deciding how much weight you

should be using it will depend on your

strength. You want to use a weight that

is challenging but still able to keep great

form. Remember form over everything!

Take Your Before Pics (trust me on this)

Make sure to take your BEFORE pictures. I know right now you are probably

thinking there is no way I’m taking a picture of myself in a bikini or sports bra and

shorts. But I can promise you that a!er busting your butt over the next 30-60

days you are going to wish you would have taken that before picture.

Progress pics are also the best way to track results. We 100% never base progress

off of the number on the scale. Use your initial pictures to compare with your

current pictures to track your amazing results.

The best time to take pictures is first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.

Make sure to wear a bikini and or shorts and a sports bra. You will want to take

front and back pictures making sure they are visible and in front of a clean

background.

Illness and Training

Please be SMART in regards to illness and training! If you

are SICK... DO NOT TRAIN!

You will only make yourself sicker and prolong the

time that you are not getting the full benefits of

your training!

Stay home, take CARE of yourself, get BETTER

and THEN go back to your workouts!!!

Your health is the most important thing.

What People Are Saying About

EDGE BOOTY EXTREME

“I completely suffered from pancake butt. I had no definition from

my back to my hamstrings, and it was the one thing I really didn’t

know how to “fix”.

The Edge Booty Extreme workouts are intense, and get you sweating

like crazy. I saw a huge improvement in my glutes within the first

month.

My butt was tighter and the most sculpted it had ever been. The

workouts not only give you great definition in your legs but the

overall drop in body fat gets you looking super toned all over. I can’t

recommend it enough!”

Chelsea Clark

Team Edge Athlete

I completely suffered from “Pancake Butt”…

“Before the EDGE booty I limited myself to a few traditional leg

exercises and focused on lifting as heavy as possible. I was strong but

I wasn’t getting the results I wanted.

While I still weight train I now train in a way tailored to achieve the

look so many women desire- strong, slender and lean.

The EDGE Booty Extreme workouts have introduced me to a variety

of new exercises used to specifically target glutes and create a well

balanced physique.

These Edge Booty Extreme exercises keep my workouts interesting

and most importantly effective in reaching my goals. It is so rewarding to finally see the results I have

worked so hard for.

Joe and Ingrid have created the winning formula to build, lift and tighten your Edge Booty with the

exercises and rep ranges found in this Edge Booty Extreme program! Thank you Team EDGE!”

What People Are Saying About

EDGE BOOTY EXTREME

“Booty, I have to admit, is a sensitive subject for me! Coming from

the Asian descent, I was not genetically blessed in the “booty”

department. When I first joined Team EDGE and all the girls would

talk about their “EDGE Booties”… I was honestly discouraged.

Well, after a few sessions doing the “EDGE Booty Extreme Workouts”

by my coaches Ingrid and Joe, I understood how these EDGE Booties

were made! These glute exercises are intense, and target every part of

your glute muscles.

Joe and Ingrid are geniuses at coming up with so many different

exercises, and they ALL work! I love that I don’t have to just do squats

and walking lunges repeatedly every day. With the EDGE Booty workouts, I find my booty workouts to

be both challenging and rewarding with GREAT results.

I have been with the team for a little over a year now, and my booty has grown. You don’t need be

genetically blessed to have glutes with these effective workouts. I am proud to say I have an “EDGE

Booty” now and they keep growing. Thank you Ingrid and Joe!”

Nana Kim

Team Edge Athlete

I was not genetically blessed in the “booty” department…

“I’ve always been an athlete and never really thought about how

much better my glutes could look until I started the Edge Booty

Extreme Program.

In just 1 month it looks like I got a butt lift and it just gets better

In just “1 month” it looks like I got a butt lift…

What People Are Saying About

EDGE BOOTY EXTREME

“When I came to Ingrid and Joe, I was a mess, 206 pounds and

my saggy derriere was covered in cellulite. Fast forward 22 weeks,

and I walked on stage as a NPC bikini competitor, with one of the

nicest trunks out there!

I am a personal trainer and group fitness instructor, and thought

all I had to do was heavy squats and deadlifts to create that nice

round famous Ingrid Romero Edge Booty. Boy was I wrong!

I was introduced to a whole new world of glute and leg workouts

that left my glutes begging for MORE! I learned the best

techniques and supersets to shape not only my entire body, but

especially my bottom half.

Now, I no longer wear men’s baggy sweatpants to workout or leggings every single day to hide my

shape. I refuse to let anything that is not fitted or booty and body flattering touch this body, as I make

it a point to be proud and confident in the skin I am in, and accentuate that Edge Booty like I bought it.

Joe Discuillo and Ingrid Romero really are better than plastic surgeons!”

Your backside, behind, derriere, tush,

rump, posterior, fanny, buttocks,

bottom, bum – the names

(and nicknames) for what’s

said to be the largest,

most powerful and athletic

muscle in the body go on

and on. I’m talking about

your gluteus maximus,

or what most fitness

professionals will refer to

as your “glutes.”

With both the upper and

lower muscle fibers in

the glutes working both

independently

and

together, your glutes

are directly involved

in hip extension, hip

abduction, and hip

external rotation. That

means that whether you

are walking, running,

jumping,

squatting,

kicking,

climbing,

throwing, or swinging,

concern has always been with the size,

shape, and overall look of glutes

as they are shown off onstage

during fitness competitions!

This is your opportunity to

benefit from my personal

experiences in getting my

own glutes (or my “tushy”

as I refer to it) in shape,

as well as training other

fitness competitors to do

so. In this book, I’m going

to give you the steps

you need to attain the

smooth, tight, round,

and beautiful glutes

you’ve always wanted!

I’m writing this eBook

because

women

o"en ask me about

what they can do

to achieve better

tone in their glutes

and hamstrings. I

mean, what woman

doesn’t want a firm

models and competitors. This area has always been a really

common problem, because unless you’re genetically gi"ed most

women tend to store and carry fat deposits in the rear. Coming

from a personal perspective, my tushy has always been quite

ample and I’m on the shorter side, so I’ve made it a priority

to work hard and keep it firm and tight. As a result of my hard

work, I’m now known for my amazing glutes, and now I get to

share my knowledge with you!

First, I’m going to cover the basic anatomy that everyone

needs to know when training their glutes. As you might

have noticed, as our birthdays accumulate in number,

our glutes tend to change. We need to learn how to

work WITH those changes, accommodate, and adapt.

Next, I’m going to cover some training myths and

misconceptions as well as some competition-specific

guidelines. For some, this conversation will involve

making necessary changes in your nutrition plan

as well. Eating a nutritious, well-balanced diet and

staying hydrated is an absolute must for anyone

trying to achieve tight, lean muscle tone. Staying

away from refined sugar and processed foods,

and limiting alcohol and dairy are MUSTS in this

process.

And finally, I’m going to provide you with a

comprehensive training guide, including some

cherished power moves, so that you can start

to better tone and tighten your own glutes.

Of course I’ll provide you with information

on how to maintain all of your hard work.

I hope that this book covers all of the

information you need to effectively tighten,

tone and shape your glutes. Don’t hesitate – start now!

Your Booty

Basic Anatomy of the Glutes

As I mentioned in my intro, the

“glutes” that we’ll be working

on make up the largest, and

most powerful muscle group in

the body, and form the shape of

the buttocks.

We’re going to be focusing

on the Gluteus maximus, the

Gluteus medius, the Gluteus

minimus, and by the default,

the iliotibial tract (or IT band).

Now these muscles are meant

for extension and external

rotation of the hip, along with

strong stabilization of the hip

joint.

The Gluteus Maximus is the largest muscle in your body, the largest muscle

within the glutes, and the most superficial of all the gluteus muscles.

» It originates along the crest of the pelvic bone and attaches to the back of

the upper portion of the thigh bone (the femur) and the IT band. This creates

a direct connection between the trunk and the lower body.

» The Gluteus Maximus plays a major role in hip extension and pelvis stabilization

throughout moves like

walking, running, sitting,

and li"ing.

(13)

The Gluteus Medius is shaped kind of like a pork chop, and it is located slightly

outside of your pelvis. The Gluteus Minimus is the smallest of all three muscles

in your glutes, and it sits right beneath your Gluteus Medius.

» The Gluteus Medius originates

on the ilium between the iliac

crest and the posterior gluteal

lines, and its posterior third is

covered by the Gluteus Maximus

(so it sits a little deeper).

» The Gluteus Medius and Gluteus

Minumus work together to

control thigh abduction, which

involves pulling the thigh away

from the midline.

» The Gluteus Medius and Gluteus

Minimus also work together to

control hip extension, along with

internal and external rotation of

the thigh.

» The Gluteus Medius and the Gluteus Minimus are especially important to

stability and function while you’re walking, as they allow you to transfer

weight to one leg without the pelvis dropping to the opposite side.

What does all of this mean to you? All that you need to understand is that we

have multiple muscles that we are trying to target in shaping your glutes. It’s not

just one single muscle, but three in particular that we need to attend to. While

the Gluteus Maximus makes up the majority of your tush, strengthening and

working with the Gluteus Medius and Gluteus Minimus, along with your IT Band

and your hamstrings, is critical to achieving the best overall look.

Now genetics definitely play a role here. The way your backside ultimately looks

(no matter what shape it’s in) depends a lot upon your torso length, or the height

of your pelvis. Depending on your body type, some individuals have a longer

pelvis, thus a longer and “squarer” looking rear end, and those with a shorter

pelvis may have a tush that’s shorter and rounder.

In addition to your genetic make up – nutrition, posture and exercise play a

critical role in determining your glute shape. My goal is to provide you with a

series of compound exercises that will tone and tighten the glutes, along with

some dynamic plyometric moves that will certainly challenge your body as well

(14)

Even though your glutes make up the

largest and most powerful muscle in

your body, they are still made of the

same things as the rest of your body -

muscle fiber, fat, skin, and other tissues.

Our faces, for example, have the same

underlying components, and so you

can expect many of the same changes

to occur with your tush as you see

happening with your face as you age.

» To begin with, thankfully most

backsides have been shielded from

the aging effects of the sun for a

majority of their existence. If you’ve

spent a great deal of time in a

bathing suit, hopefully you’ve been

smart enough to use sunscreen, and

still the majority of your tush has

been hidden. So sun damage isn’t

a HUGE concern for this body area.

But understand that if you HAVE

spent a large amount of time in the

sun without sunscreen, you need to

check the skin on your backside for

signs of skin cancer just like you do

the rest of your body.

effect, resulting in a saggy or

wrinkled look. So any large weight

gains or losses may result in skin

that doesn’t respond as well to

toning techniques and that no

longer bounces back into place like

it used to, no matter what you do to

tighten the area.

» Another development you might

see is excess fat being stored in your

backside, where you never used

to have it before. This is the body

naturally redistributing fat stores,

and you might also find unexpected

excess fat in your thighs and hips.

Losing this excess body fat requires

a change in BOTH your nutrition

and exercise plan. You must change

your overall body composition to

see improvements in any body fat

stored on and around your backside.

(15)

» The predictable loss of elasticity,

plus fluctuations in weight and

fat storage can cause that tush

to SAG. So what might have

been quite naturally perky in your

youth can flatten out a bit and

head south. If you’ve always had

a hard time developing a rounded

posterior, you may find it even more

challenging as you age. Certainly

starting this process of building

and strengthening the glutes early

on is advised, and it’s never too late

to make a positive change in how

you look and feel. Reducing body

fat through diet is always advised,

but if you don’t add in the exercises

I’m recommending today in this

book, the “flat butt” look may be

one you’re stuck with.

» If your tush has started to droop

or sag a bit, you might have also

noticed that the gluteal crease (the

line that separates your butt cheek

from the back of your leg) has

become more defined and longer.

Once you tighten and tone the area,

that crease will definitely start to

look better.

» And CELLULITE, oh dreaded

cellulite is what affects most of us

as we age. We all have cellulite,

but the makeup of skin and fat

determines the overall appearance

of cellulite for each individual. As

skin and fat changes around our

backsides, cellulite o"en becomes

more obvious and more annoyingly

visible. You can take the route of

expensive “cellulite reduction”

creams instead of changing your

lifestyle, but all that type of cream

does is deliver caffeine to the

body that increases circulation to

the skin and makes your cellulite

temporarily less visible. The same

goes for some of the other

quick-fix cellulite solutions – most are

temporary in nature and don’t

address the underlying problem.

You must develop lean muscle to

improve your physique. Dieting

alone can o"en make cellulite look

worse as there’s no significant

muscle tissue to support the skin

and provide shape! I’ll say it again

that the answer is nutrition PLUS

exercise, not just one or the other.

(16)

You won’t become muscular if you

use just simple TONING exercises

Myth #1:

The Truth: Somewhere along the line

in fitness writing, editors caught

onto the fact that telling people

they needed to build muscle or

create a more muscular frame

was scaring them.

Instead, they started using the

word “toned”, and everyone

caught on. In fact, I’m sure

you’ve gone to classes at

your gyms promising to

“tone” when what they are

really saying is that they

want to help you build

muscle.

You need muscle to support

your frame and to reduce the

sagging effects of skin. By

building strong and healthy

muscle, you are creating

actually “toned” look for

your glutes.

strengthening your glutes. As it is a

compound exercise, it allows you to

work more than one muscle group

at a time. However, it should not be

the ONLY glute exercise you focus on,

and unfortunately squats are o"en

performed incorrectly or with terrible

form, rendering them MUCH less

effective as an exercise.

Lunges and deadli"s are in the same

category. While your glutes might

feel some strain and be sore the next

day, a majority of the work for these

exercises is done in the quads.

(17)

Myth #3:

The Truth: The idea that you ALWAYS

have to do 20-30 reps of each exercise

to see results is both true and false.

Gradually increasing reps ONLY works

if, over time, you increase the weight/

intensity/complexity of the movement.

Adding hand weights, a bar, or a band

to a move increases resistance and

workload, and that’s how you’ll see

results. In order to keep from hitting

a plateau in your progress, you must

consistently change how you’re

challenging your body.

Long sets absolutely build endurance,

but if your goal is size and shape,

you have to think about increasing

resistance and intensity.

Myth #4:

The Truth: Beginning a new exercise

routine or increasing the intensity of

an existing one will have an overall

positive effect on your body, possibly

including the size and shape of your

glutes. But there are not specific

exercises that you can use to “spot

reduce” flabby areas in your body.

Exercises specifically for the glutes and

address the overlying layer of adipose

tissue (fat).

Your body doesn’t indicate where in the

body it wants to draw energy from –

it’s not just ONE specific place. Rather,

the body draws energy from the entire

body, which is why the goal is to burn

more calories than you take in and

change your total body composition.

In addition to strengthening your

underlying muscles, a revamp to your

nutrition plan is probably needed, and

you need to make sure that you’re

getting in sufficient cardio to burn

enough calories to have an effect on

your body.

Strength training + cardio + healthy

nutrition plan = reduced percentage

of body fat and increased percentage

of lean muscle tissue. Once you tie in

the healthy eating and exercising you

will be on track to having the backside

you have always wanted. I always tell

everybody

the key to success is the

Light weight and lots of reps is the

best combo

You can SPOT REDUCE areas of fat

or flab around your tush

(18)

Glute & Lower Body Guidelines for

Fitness Competitors

Glutes are HIGHLY important in the world of fitness

competitions and body building. Strong glutes will

absolutely affect the way the rest of your muscles

look and respond, as well as your posture and

stance while posing on the stage.

Glutes that are firm, well-rounded, and have that

desired “A” shape are your goal if you plan to

compete in any upcoming fitness model or bikini

competitions.

That “A” shape is critical for high scores, and if

you over-train your upper glutes, you will begin

to lose that shape. Your glutes will be strong and

tight, but they will not have the shape you want.

Normally, we train our glutes using moves that

involve hip extension, hip hyperextension, external

rotation, and hip abduction. However, if the upper

glutes become over trained and outsize the lower

glutes, the only exercises that should be focused

on are those that primarily involve hip extension.

Everything else will continue to target the upper

glutes as well.

If you are training for competition, you will require

a routine specific to your existing body type and

that which you wish to achieve.

Top Booty Shaping Moves

TOP BOOTY

SHAPING MOVES

In these descriptions, I’m

providing the basic foundations

for some great exercises. As you

progress and develop a stronger

physique, you can challenge

yourself by adding additional

weights, bands, weighted bars, or

even a tool like the Smith Machine

into the movements. Progression

into added weight and required

exertion is what develops strong,

lean muscle tissue.

Some of these moves involve

plyometric movement. Plyometric

Training involves hopping and

jumping

dynamic

resistance

exercises that condition the body

so that our glutes have a strong

and athletic look, versus just big

and muscular. Plyometric moves

involve an eccentric phase and a

concentric phase.

During the eccentric phase, the

muscles are rapidly stretched.

And during the concentric phase,

the muscles are rapidly shortened.

These are moves originally

utilized by sports trainers for

elite athletes, all of whom require

exceptional glute strength to

excel at their activities. That’s why

most ployometric moves look a lot

like those you see in basketball,

football, volleyball, skiing, boxing,

soccer, and many more! Strong

SQUAT WITH A KICKBACK

SETUP: Begin with feet hip-width apart.

Sit into a basic squat.

ACTION: Push back up through the

squat and kick back and up with one

leg, squeezing the glute at the top. Bring

the leg back down and sit back into the

squat. Repeat the movement bringing the

opposite leg into a kickback. Continue to

alternate for a total of 15-20 repetitions.

FORWARD LUNGE

SETUP: Begin by standing with your feet

hip-width apart and your hands on your

hips.

ACTION: Keeping one leg in place, take

a big step forwards with the other leg

and into a lunge position. The front knee

needs to track over the front ankle and

lower into a 90 degree angle. The back

knee should lower down into a 90 degree

angle as well. But don’t bang your back

knee on the ground – that hurts! Keeping

your glutes tight, push off from your front

leg and return to standing with feet

side-by-side. You can complete all 15-20 front

lunges on one side and then switch to the

opposite leg, or you can alternate.

ALTERNATIVE: Another option is to move

into a walking front lunge, completing

alternating reps while traveling from one

point to another.

position, keeping the back heel li"ed.

Lower into the lunge until the front leg is

parallel with the floor (90 degrees), and

make sure your front knee is tracking over

the front ankle. The back knee should be

at 90 degrees as well (the same as in a

front lunge). Push back up through the

front leg and come to a standing position

with feet side-by-side OR when bringing

the back leg in, elevate the knee in front

of you (step through to a high knee). You

can complete all 15-20 reps on one side

and then switch to the other, or you can

alternate sides.

COOL DOWN &

STRETCH

Now I know how hard you have

to work to get through these

workouts, and I know how your

body is probably feeling.

That’s why it’s SO important

that you take some time to cool

down and stretch a!er every

training session.

This will improve your flexibility,

increase your range of motion,

help you re-focus, and decrease

muscle soreness.

Staying limber is critical to

being able to complete a

movement without incurring

injury, so stretching should be

a standard part of your every

day. What moves are good for

the booty? Well here’s a few

that I definitely encourage you

to incorporate.

HAMSTRING STRETCH

SETUP: Sitting up or lying prone, extend

one leg either directly in front of you or

up straight into the air.

THE UPPER BODY

PLAN

Even though this book is all

about developing the perfect

booty, we certainly can’t ignore

the upper body during the

process.

We want to create appropriate

balance and proportion for

both the upper and the lower

body together.

So to make sure you know

what to do, I’ve outlined some

effective upper body moves

that will help you become

stronger and more toned over

the course of this program.

I’ve suggested repetitions per

set, and ideally you’d like to

complete 2-3 sets of each, with

increasing weights (i.e. 5lbs,

8lbs, 10lbs).

the starting position with weights at

shoulder/ear level. Complete 10-12 reps

per set.

NOTE: If you do not have bench you can

use stairs, chair or any elevated object

30 Days To A Fabulous Backside

30 DAYS TO A

(57)

One of the most commonly asked questions that

I receive is what my workouts look like on a

daily basis. I put a lot of work and effort

into shaping my body and my booty,

and I’m happy to share it all with you

in this amazing DVD collection.

All the routines have been designed

to give you the same fun and

challenging glute workouts (and the

same results) as used by all of the

Team Edge girls!

THE BOOTY BLAST WORKOUT

Get ready for the ultimate body sculpt with this cardio and strength training workout.

We’ve combined energetic cardio drills with weighted strength training to blast and

build your booty.

THE BOOTY + CORE WORKOUT

Achieving the perfect booty requires a strong core. This workout will take you through

a high-intensity, lower body workout that will challenge your stability and your core

strength, while keeping the focus on your booty.

THE SINGLE LEG BURNOUT WORKOUT

This workout fine-tunes your glutes by taking you through intense isolation exercises.

By targeting each leg separately, you will achieve the maximum sculpting and

strengthening effect for your booty. Your challenge will be 100 repetitions per leg, both

on your feet and on your side. This workout will take you (and your booty) to a whole

new level!

We are stacking exercises to create one big superset, where you’re required to move

from a dynamic move to one requiring more stability. These sequences will challenge

you both mentally and physically, but you’ll have a better booty at the end of these 30

days for sure!

Please note that some exercises involve adding resistance via hand weights, weighted

bars, bands, and/or machines like the Smith Machine.

The 30-Day Plan With Edge

Booty Extreme Workouts

(58)

INTENSITY

You NEED to ensure that each session is slightly more challenging then the one

that preceded it. To do this you want to increase your level of intensity each workout.

Intensity is defined as the absolute difficultly, or the quantity of your training.

Intensity. As I see it, intensity is really just a measure of both how hard you’re

working and how hard you’re willing to work. You can’t have an intense workout if

you don’t have an intense mindset. Be willing to force your body to give a little bit

more than it wants.

CARDIO

Cardio exercise is any exercise that raises your heart rate. Face it our bodies were

made to move. And we all know that to keep our muscles in shape we need move

them. This movement makes them stronger and stronger muscles make for a more

efficient and healthy body. Your heart is a muscle.

Therefore working it makes it stronger. A stronger cardio-vascular system means

more capillaries delivering more oxygen to cells in your muscles. This enables your

cells to burn more fat during both exercise and inactivity.

For the Edge Booty Extreme Program you will be doing four 20 minute cardio

sessions at an intensity level of 65-70% (choose between brisk jog/walk or preferred

cardio machine). This is referred to as “CARDIO 20” on your training schedule.

HITT TRAINING

HIIT or “High-intensity Interval Training” is a training technique in which you give

all-out, one hundred percent effort through quick, intense bursts of exercise,

followed by short, sometimes active, recovery periods. This type of training gets

and keeps your heart rate up and burns more fat in less time.
