    I think squats are the best. Also, I do this kickboxing workout and one segment uses hand weights while doing kicks and lunges. I swear my butt is smaller already. That one is 10 minute solutions kickboxing. It is on Netfix so if you have that you can use it for free.

    I do pelvic thrusts off the exercise ball. I sit on it like I'm going to do a crunch, then I slowly walk down so that it's just my head & shoulders on the ball. You have to adjust where your feet are so that when you push up, the ball doesn't come out from underneath you. But it really works the back of the legs & butt area. You can even take the racked weights, hold one on your stomach while you do them. It adds more resistance.

    depends

    how often do you normally exercise? Is this a normal routine? How much protein have you consumed to recover? How much water have you drank? How much sleep have you had?

    You don't actually have to answer those questions but they are some of the factors.

    Do some stretching and light recovery walk and drink lots of water.

    Check out Brett Contreras blog... just google 'the glute guy', he has probably done the most butt-specific research out there.

    Actually, low bar squats are best because of the angle your back has to make with the floor. Squatting with an upright torso will put more stress on your knees and quadriceps, while low bar squats allow the stress to be taken by your lower back, glutes, and hamstrings.

    Bridge lifts have not been mentioned? Lying on your back either on the floor or upper back just to your shoulder blades on a bench with two risers so your torso is parallel to the floor, knees bent, feet hip width. If you are on a bench you can add weight, a barbell or dumbells (up to 20 lbs or so) held right at the pelvis/top of thigh crease, lift your but up and down without arching your back. Do this for 3-4 minutes alternating pulses, and slowwww repetitions. Targets glutes and hammies specifically. Amazing!

    Also, rollerblading!
