      Why wouldn't it? You're not trying to shape fat, you're trying to shape muscle. And your butt is pretty much pure muscle. If you do squats, lunges, deadlifts and other things like that, you can definitely form a nice butt with some time. Just like training your arms will give you good muscle definition, so will training your butt, or legs, or abs.

      Try it and find out. I have a small butt but since doing squats/lunges/etc. it's definitely got a better shape. I'm not turning into Beyoncé or anything, but it's way better than what I had lol

      Yes!

      Just make sure you are doing them right or your knees may suffer. And don't forget about lunges, too.

      I also had trouble figuring out what you were really trying to ask, but yes, squats should help you... do that.

      Squats are amazing for the butt. Also, deadlifts. And a handful of other things that work the glutes.

      Squat heavy, squat often. Be most excellent.

      Squats are the exercise that both suck and are awesome! Some days you curse them, some days you praise them, but i NEVER skip my squats on leg day. They are fantastic!

      Maybe, YOUR butt is pretty much pure muscle. Mine is not, as evidenced by my Oh so scientific experiment of poking my finger into my right butt cheek and having it yield like a loosely stuffed throw pillow. :laugh:

      Thanks. I do p90x, lift and squat lol I just wanted some reassurance. That it will. Give me alittle. Something. To hold my pants up, how many should I do a day? Id like to see results by summer


      .....be honest ill do 100 a day if thats what it will tak

      100 a day won't get you where you want to be.

      that's NOTG what it takes.

      it takes WEIGHT. ACTUAL squatting.

      Learn how to do it- then get yourself some weight and squat away.

      now go forth... and be fabulous.

      Squats will help and dead lifts. Add in hip thrusters and hip bridges as well if you want to take your butt to a whole new level.

      Strong Curves is an amazing butt building workout

      Honestly it wasn't about the spelling, I can deal with spelling, your thoughts seemed all over the place and I wasn't really sure what you were saying...and now I am laughing hysterically because I realized that I typed "computer" instead of "compute"

      Try 2 or 3 sets of 8-10 reps. If its too easy then increase the weight but make sure your form is good as an injury will stop you exercising for a long time
