One dumbbell. What leg/butt workouts work best?

I do squats, weighted pelvic thrusts and calf raises. Are there any other moves that I can do with just a single dumbbell? I'm trying to really step up the weight-training. Also, should I adjust the dumbbell to the highest weight it goes(it's a nike adjustable. The highest weight is 25 lbs)? Or work my way up to it?

Absolute best exercise for that area is the single leg stiff leg deadlift.

you can do it with your single dumbell with one arm and alternate. Its proper hard!
Good Luck

Squats and lunges are some of the best exercises for the "butt" area. There are many different variations to both of these exercises. Don't forget to add a little cardio!0
