These 3 workouts are simple yet they have been proven to be effective where the butt is concerned. Incorporate them into your routine if you want a great looking butt to match the rest of your well-toned body.

Squats

Squats are by far the most effective workouts where butt and lower body trained are concerned. That said it is also true that most people have no idea how to do perfect squats.

How to do it

- Stand straight with your legs apart and your toes slightly pointing outwards. The greater the distance between your legs, the more you are going to squeeze the butt muscles and the faster you are going to see results. You can start with your feet slightly

wider than your hips and increase this distance as you get used to squats.

- Pick a stationary point; maybe on a wall. You should fix your eyes on this point throughout your session and resist the temptation to look up or down.

- Breathe in and break at the hip as you push your butt backwards. Do this up to the point your knees start to bend. You can continue in the same direction until your hips are slightly lower than the knees. 

- Breathe out and go up while still ensuring that your back is straight and your knees are in the same line with your feet

You can incorporate weights in your workouts for faster and better results.

Lunges

Lunges are also great for the butt. There are different types of lunges that range from the stationary lunges to the more involving alternating lunges. 

How to do stationary lunges

- Get two dumbbells and hold one in each hand.

- Put one leg in front end ensure that your posture is right as this guarantees stability.

- Bend your legs and allow the weight of the dumbbells to bring your body down. Just ensure that the leg you put in front does not go past your toes as the back leg almost touches the ground.

- Slowly lift your body back to the original position.

- Do about 10 reps and change to the other leg

The duration you choose to dedicate to lunges will depend on the results you want and the current condition of your body. If you have not been active for a while, take it easy so that you can protect your body against injuries.

Deadlifts

These are great because they not only work the butt muscles, but also the hamstring and lower back.

How to do it

- Get a bar or dumbbells. Dumbbells are quite versatile and are a worthy investment if you are looking to build a muscular body and keep growing your muscles as you work out.

- Put your legs hip-width apart and stand straight. You should be holding the dumbbells in front of your thighs.

- Bend downwards from the hip region and lower your upper body until the weights you are holding get to your shins.

- Raise your body by squeezing your butt. You have to ensure that you only bend your knees slightly and you do not bend your back as you go up or down.

You can do 3 sets of 10 or so reps whenever you have scheduled to work on your butt and lower back.

These 3 workouts have been proven to be effective in ensuring a great looking butt. Incorporate them into your daily routine and you will start to see results in no time at all. You have to remember though that exercise should be accompanied by a good diet.

If you are carrying some extra weight, you also need to take the right steps in order to lose it. This way, you will not only have a great looking butt but a well-toned body as well.
