Having a firm, toned butt is a great way to balance out your figure and look great in a pair of jeans. Getting a bigger butt, unlike losing weight, is not difficult and only requires the right set of exercises and the dedication to getting it done. Combine a healthy diet, cardio and resistance training and you will have a bigger, firmer butt in no time.
Squats
Squats are an effective way to build your butt while also working your thighs, legs and hips. Grab a pair of dumbbells and hold them near your shoulders while standing with your legs slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Next, squat down like you're sitting in a chair, keeping your upper body straight and pushing your butt out slightly. Keep your knees behind your toes as you bend. Finally, squeeze your butt together as you return to the starting position. Repeat for 10 to 15 reps for two to three sets
Lunges
Lunges will give you a bigger, firmer butt while also toning your legs and thighs. Grab a pair of dumbbells and stand with your legs together and arms at your sides. Lunge forward with your left leg. Keep your knee at a 90-degree angle, making sure to keep your knee behind your toes. Drop your back knee toward the ground, without touching the floor, as you lunge forward. Push up on your back leg and return to the starting position. Repeat with your right leg. Complete 10 to 15 reps for two to three sets.
Step Ups
Step Ups are one of the simplest lower-body workouts and a good way to make your butt bigger. Steps ups will also tone your legs and thighs. Place a step or chair in front of you. Place your hands on your hips and step up on the step with your right foot heel first and then bring your left foot up behind you. Finally, step down with your right foot first, then your left. Repeat. Work one leg at a time for 15 to 20 reps and two to four sets.
Hip Extensions
Hip extensions work the butt by isolating the butt muscles and working them one muscle group at a time. Kneel on the floor on your hands and knees. Keep your body aligned and your back flat. Next, kick your right leg out and up behind you. Keep your leg aligned with the rest of your body and your foot flat. Bring your knee back in to the starting position and repeat the move. Complete 10 to 15 reps on each leg for two to three sets.
