(sry if the pic is not allowed, feel free to remove the link)

anyways, i want to build a butt, i want it to be rounder and stick out a little more. i don't ever work out so i'm wondering, how should i start out? will i need to have a gym membership to acheive a gr8 butt?

need some beginner advice, tips, like how to do a squat properly and if stretching is needed, and what sorta stretches. i find that when i squat i feel it in my thighs, not so much my bum. is that normal?

thanks guys

    I would follow a normal, full-body lifting program, like New Rules of Lifting for Women. If you only work your legs, you might look funny.
    A gym is preferred, unless you're willing to get a set of dumbbells.

    That's normal. But you might also be doing them incorrectly. Check Youtube for "how to squat".

    This, Squats and deadlifts are awesome for our butts XD

    As for the gym membership, I do strongly believe that using a Barbell is more effective than using dumbbells, but some might disagree. Also good thing with a gym membership is that no matter how much you increase the weight, the price at the end of the year doesn't increase :tongue:

    For good form, I suggest looking for the Stronglift videos (Check Stronglift Squat on youtube)
