Jen Selter says that she has never had a personal trainer in her life. Instead, she just watched what the trainers in her gym would have their clients do. She would put what she saw to action in her own workouts. Jen’s hard work has lead to her fame. She now has what many people call the “Best Butt on Instagram.” The Jen Selter workout comes from her posts on Facebook, where she shares her workouts.

Before Jen Selter’s workout, it’s important to see why she has enjoyed such a rise in popularity. It’s not only due to her workout program, but more importantly her Instagram posts and resulting #belfies. She is also famous for #seltering. Jen says:

I was never one to use many hash tags, but I needed a unique way of branding myself and something to call my unusual pictures, like climbing up walls and stuff.

The Jen Selter workout is focused on toning and leaning out her legs, butt, and abs. The best exercise for this, she says, are squats, as Jen says:

Squats are a girl’s best friend. [Squats] work your core, your glutes and they keep your legs toned. They especially strengthen the muscles around our knees. My overall fitness goals are to look tone and lean, so I‘m not trying to build muscle or gain weight.

Finish with 30-45 minutes of cardio on your favorite machine. Add an incline to work your butt. Use 2-3 different machines if you get bored easily. Also, make sure to have a playlist handy so you can keep focused. Here is a Jen Selter workout video from 2014. It covers more than you would do in an actual workout.

Jen Selter says that her goal with all this social media exposure is motivation. The pictures not only inspire her to get better, but also inspire millions of people on their journey toward living a fit lifestyle.

The only way you will see results is if you stay consistent. You will only get what you work for. When I first started posting photos, I never thought my butt would be this sensation, or like the most-known butt on Instagram these days.

Jen also does some upper body workouts. But, she hasn’t posted the exact workouts. She likes to use the Spider Crawl, Frog, and pushups for her upper body. Since it was her butt selfies that made her famous, those are the workouts she is focused on sharing. Jen did share this Core Challenge on Facebook:

  1. Great workout plan BUT (no pun intended) I was about to do it today and the workouts aren’t showing. Please fix it cause I love this without and this chick is my motivation! =) thank you!

    • Her Dumbbell Squats look to be about 25 pounds each. Make sure to pick a weight that’s right for you. You should be challenged to go to failure on the last few reps, for best results.

  2. Does she work out every day of the week? And i would love to know her routine for the week ????

  3. But do you have an idea of about how long tgis takes her. I am a working mother of 3 so i have very limited time at the gym.

    • Yes, she spends a lot of time in the gym. I think she works out for 45 mins-1 hour, plus more cardio later in the day. For us working people, try to be as smart as you can with your workout and diet. I just read an article from British scientists claiming that there is "No way to out-run a bad diet."

      Get protein in your body right before and right after your workout. Do HIIT instead of standard cardio. Get in a mini-workout (even just squats) whenever you can. Good Luck!
