Many women aspire to have a toned derriere, but it often takes some effort to achieve this look. A fitness routine with exercises specifically designed to focus on the buttocks can help get you there. Fitness experts often recommend doing a work-out two to three per week times that incorporates multiple sets of moves if you want to improve the look of your butt. Here are some examples.
Walking Lunges
The walking lunge involves placing one foot in front of you and bending at the knees until your back knee is almost touching the floor. Keeping walking forward alternating feet. This exercise can also be done in place; after completing lunges put your feet back together and then repeat with the opposite leg. Balancing on barbell on your shoulder blades adds extra intensity to the move.
Chair Pose and Warrior Three
Chair pose and warrior three are both yoga inspired exercises that can really help tighten up your rear-end. You begin chair pose by placing your feet hip-width apart and raising your hands straight above the head. Next, bend at the knees, stick out your butt and slowly lower yourself towards the ground. Stop right before you would sit on a chair if there were one behind you. Hold the position for as long as feasible.

Warrior three involves placing one leg in front of the other and lifting the back leg to a 90 degree angle while extending the arms straight-out in front of you. For a more butt burning variation, start in a lunge and then raise your leg..
Throw in Some Cardio
Mixing some cardio into your workout can help get your heart pumping, burn extra calories and still exercise the buttocks. Try quick cardio exercises like jumping jacks and butt kicks. Going for jog is another way to accomplish this objective.
Having a firm butt is a worthy goal, particularly as bathing suit season approaches. These exercises can be a good start.
