Losing weight but giving your booty a "pop"

Hi everyone. I've been a chunky girl for most of my life. Weighing the most at 180 when I was 18 years old. I'm 153 today and am trying to get down to my goal weight of 135. Now, I've already lost a huge amount of weight as my first round of this I was 165 and got down to 143. I also lost my butt in the process. Obviously, I went up in weight as I'm 153 today. What I'm wondering is what kind of exercises can I do to make my butt pop instead of making it flat. It's not that bad right now, I just want the illusion of the big booty I had before. Thanks.

    Anything up hill! Lol. There are versions of the brazilian butt lift and a series by envy on youtube for free that I follow. Haven't lost mine yet, and DH claims it is getting perkier. :)

    EDIT to add ballet: plies will really kill you, but so worth the results!

    Your cardio should be something where you have to make a huge range of motion (which will include your glutes in the movement) like hill hunning, stair climbing, etc.

    Lunges yes. Step class is good for the butt too.
  • Thanks all! :D
