a butt like brian's :)


Are you happy with your butt? Most of us aren't. They're too small, too big, too saggy, too flabby...this list goes on. The right cardio exercise and weight training activities (like squats and deadlifts) can make a difference in your backside, depending on your body type and genetics. the best exercises you could do are the following:   
Squats are one of the best exercises you can do for your hips, butt and thighs and they're also a functional exercise, helping us build strength for a variety of daily activities.
Step ups are another great exercise for the butt.  For step ups, place one foot on a step or platform and push through the heel to lift the body up. This is an excellent exercise for the butt, providing you use a step that's high enough, although you may need to work up to a higher step if you're a beginner.  You eventually want a height were your knee is at about a 90-degree angle.
Riding a bike is great for your heart and it also targets almost every muscle in your hips, thighs and butt. On a stationary bike, alternate 3 minutes at 70-80 RPM with 2 minutes at 100-110 RPM for a calorie-blasting 30 minute workout. You can also try Spinning at the gym or riding outside. Increase your resistance and stand up to really work your butt. A 140-lb person burns 335 calories in 45 minutes.

I am not able to make my own video do to technical difficulties so I will post up something up that I found that relates to this and thought it was little funny
