Squats, deadlifts and lunges.
My butt has never gotten much attention until I started lifting heavy.0 -
Only one way to say if they are right or not. Pictures!! ;P
I was thinking the same thing lol0 -
OP, you mentioned strength training. If you've got it in your budget, hire a trainer and get a specific workout to include some exercises & lifts for legs and butt. You won't regret it.0

U r a beautiful girl. Don't listen to those idiots. Strong & healthy is what I want. It is more important the kind of person u r than if your butt is perfect. Search inside for the answers. That's where all your truth & happiness will b found.0

Squats, dead lifts, lunges; should help round up what you have. But, I wouldn't let anyone tell ya there's something wrong with any part of your figure. Work with what you have!
Edited: When doing Squats make sure to keep your shoulders and head lifted and stick you butt out behind you like your sitting in a chair keeping your back nice and straight.
For dead lifts; knees should not be bent and once again you should be sticking your butt OUT behind you as you drop your upper body forward keeping your back straight.
If you don't bend your knees, how do you get down to the bar? Maybe the form coaching is best left to the proffesionals?0 -

Heavy weights are good but it's also good to change it up all the time. Also you don't want to do just one muscle group. You should do an all body workout so your body is balanced.
The routine I do consists of weight lifting first and cardio second, but I still do cardio (mainly running). I change up everything all the time. My running is sometimes long easy runs, sometimes HIIT, sometimes shorter medium pace runs. My weight routine changes each day, each week, Circuits, Intermittent Super Sets, Fibonacci Pyramids, X-sets, Progress Venus Pyramids, and some splits, constantly changing it up, everything a variety of Strength, Hypertrophy, and Endurance.
Legs; In addition to Dealdlift's, Stiff Leg Dead Lifts, Sumo Dead Lifts and Squats I do Bulgarian Split Squats, Lunges, Reverse lunges, Curtsey lunges, Step Ups, Crossover Bench Step Ups, One legged Deadlifts (T-Bend), Lunge Matrix, Bowler Squat, One Legged Get Ups, Bower Squat and Calf Raise, Bowler Squat + Stiff Leg Deadlift, Curtsey Lunge + Dumbbell Squat, T-Bend + Y-Squat, Reverse Lunge & Step Up, Curtsey Lunge + Step Up, Y-squat, Narrow Stance Squat
For upper body I do Standing Shoulder Press, Standing Dumbell Curls, Lying Tricep extension, Pullovers, Bent Barbell Row, Standing lateral Raise, Standing front Raise, Curl and Press, Shoulder Press + Curl, Dips, Lying Tricep Extensions + Flyes, Venus Raise (a type of snatch), Bent Row + Standing Lateral Raise, Pullovers, Pushup + Dips, Standing Dumbbell curls + Overhead Tricep Extension, Bent Lateral Raise + Pullovers, One Arm Dumbbell row, Flyes + Pushups, Seated Curl & Tate Press, Seated Curls + Overhead Tricep Extension, Pushups, Pullovers + Dips, Bent Barbell Row, Lateral Raise + Full Front Raise, Venus Raise + Dips, Standing Dumbbell curls + Lying Tricep Extension, Upright Row + Dips, Bent Barbell Row, Flat bench Press, Incline Bench Press, Bent Row Narrow, Bent Row + Kickback,
Then some upper and lower combos; Squat and Front Raise, Step Up & Press, Step Up + Standing Shoulder Press, Squat & Press, Squat & Swing, Curtsy Lunge + Standing Shoulder Pres, T-Bend & Row, Pike Front Rais + Curtsey Lunge, Flat Bench Press + Step Up.
Core: Bar Bell Rollouts (you can start out with Stability Ball Roll Outs), Swiss Ball Pikes (you can start out with Stability Ball Curl Ups), and planks. As you advance Swiss Ball Pike and pushup.
I probably forgot some but you get the idea.0 -
Try doing squats with a swiss ball behind your back against the wall. Start with the ball low - small of your back and as you squat it will roll up towards your shoulders. The ball keeps you in an appropriate position and stops you looking too silly! Try a small weight in each hand or held out at chest height in front of you. Remember to control the action with your abs for better core strength also.0

I have the same pancake issue and have been trying to build my booty muscles. I've done all these exercises as mentioned and feel them right where I should, so I'm sure they're effective! Good luck, fellow noassatall sufferer. :P0 -

You do all that in a week? That's crazy talk!
And while I agree that a full body routine is very important, the OP was asking about her butt specifically.0 -
I added brazil butt lift to my cross training on the advice of my physical therapist because of knee pain. I have never had a butt or shapely rear at all. I don't have much still, but I'm getting there. I have defined muscles, muscle control, and am at least not sloppy, what I have is firm. Plus it's helped my inner thighs and hip strength. I also now bike two days a week which strengthened my hamstrings and has helped shaped my butt too.0

KISS. Squats, DLs, Lunges, Hill Sprints. You can get fancy when you've been lifting for 30 years and you have the experience to design your own routines of all these variation exercises.0 -
You could check out the butt bible. All the workouts are free on youtube. I just started it, but I've seen a few success stories on here.0

Agreed... Squats and lunges. I also have a crap butt. Lol. I also incorporate up and downs... Denise Austin style and also kick backs. That's what I call them.
Up and Downs: lie flat on your back, knees bent, palms face up by your side, lift your pelvis towards the ceiling, pause. Repeat.
Kick Backs: get on all fours (hands and knees), chin up, kick back your right leg as high as you can and then bring your lee to your chest. Do this 20 times without letting your knee tough the ground. Switch legs and repeat.
All four of these have helped my butt. Skating also helps a lot.
^ Hi, Do you find that these have been helping you? I also have a flat butt. I need help!! LOL
I really appreciate your suggestions. :flowerforyou:0 -

I agree that squats is where it's at! If you aren't doing these, try them, they work wonders!!! Good luck to you:)!0

Wow. A lot of butt-talk on this thread! My advice is to keep it simple. There are some super complicated sounding exercises on this thread and when you're just staring out you probably don't need them. When you are at home (and maybe at home alone!) lunge instead of walking when you are going from A to B. If you have stairs use them for doing step ups. This might be a bit TMI 9but hey, we're all friends here!) but everytime I go to the bathroom I do 20 squats. I do wide leg ones, hip distance ones, squats on my tip toes, squats on one leg...and I'm easily racking up about 200 a day! Kick backs are awesome as well, though I tend to keel over to one side (balance issues). And there are tonnes of DVDs out there that focus on *kitten* exercises, and they will incorporate your cardio, too.
If your friends are saying you have a flat butt they are probably jealous because they have have fat butt. You don't need this!
And if you couldn't be bothered, just get a really good pair of jeans!0
