Exercises to give me a bum??

Werglum

Hi,
I suffer from no bum syndrome (symptoms include: pants falling down, feeling uncomfortable sitting on hard surfaces...) are there any exercises that could give me a bum?!?

I used to run a lot - but have stopped since having two kids (although I did go for a run a few weeks ago and ran 7km quite happily without walking - so it is still lurking somewhere inside!!) and I find that running is part of the cause of my problem, I have just, this morning, finished the 30 Day Shred, which has helped me to tone up a lot, but if anything has shrunk my bum even more!!

I guess as far as problems go, it is a pretty awesome one! But I would like a bit of something to sit on, if it is possible.

I think jillian michaels has a buns and thighs thing, maybe try that if you liked the shred. I haven't done the buns and thighs so I can't vouch for it though...

Heavy *kitten* squats, leg presses, lunges, step ups, stiff legged deadlifts to name a few. Gotta use heavy *kitten* weights though. Also need to be in calorie surplus to put muscle on there.

Squats, lunges and STAIRS (or step ups on something tall, like a park bench - they are killer).
