Building the perfect butt is more laborious than some people could ever imagine; especially if you aren’t sure of what exercises you should be doing to help you reach your goals. The primary way to achieve your butt lift is to build up the muscles in your buttocks. Building your glutes will help to give a rounder shaped butt. More importantly, it helps with raising the buttocks as well.

The following exercises are some of the best and fastest ways to get a natural butt lift.
1. Sumo Squats
Many people are unfamiliar with the sumo squat, but this is one exercise that is extremely helpful with lifting the buttocks. The sumo squat is an exercise that thoroughly works the thighs, glutes, and quads; toning them with just the right amount of definition. The sumo squat is quite similar to a regular squat, except your squat position would call for your toes to be pointed away from your body and your legs spread wider apart. With consistency, the sumo squat will help to give you a natural butt lift.
In the upright position, your feet should be slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your toes pointing slightly outward. Keep your back straight and stomach tight.
Push your hips back while slowly bending your knees and lowering your legs until your thighs are just below parallel to the floor.
Place your weight on the heels of your foot and push your hips through while squeezing your buttocks as you return to the starting position.
2. Weighted Lunges
Some exercises are used for pretty much everything because they are extremely accommodating. More specifically, weighted lunges can be used to work your entire body; however, having to lunge using weights will tone your thighs and legs while also helping to lift your butt naturally.
Start from the upright position while carefully holding a dumbbell in each hand.
Step forward (roughly 2 feet) with your right leg making sure to leave your left foot stationary and behind the right leg.
Be sure to keep your torso in the upright position as you go down.
Using the heel of your foot, push up and return to the starting position.
Repeat the movement for the recommended amount of repetitions and then perform with the left leg.

3. Cable Pull Through
If you want to get a butt lift as soon as possible, the cable pull through exercise is one exercise you want to make sure is in your workout rotation. The most significant difference between this exercise, lunges, and squats is that you can solely focus on your glutes.
Start by standing a few feet in front of a low pulley with a rope or handle attached. Face away from the machine while straddling the cable. Your feet should be a little more than shoulder-width apart.
Start the movement by reaching, backward, through your legs as far as possible, bending at the hips and making sure that your knees are slightly bent.
Keep your arms straight while thrusting your hips forward and into an upright position.
*** Avoid pulling upward through the shoulders; all of the motion should originate through the hips.
4. Donkey kicks
Donkey kicks are an excellent exercise for a natural butt lift. They also focus on core stability, which is a bonus. Like duh, a round, firm butt and the abs to match, that’s a no-brainer! Donkey kicks focus more on the upper portion of your buttocks and helping to make it firmer.
Using a flat surface (floor), you start by getting down on all fours.
Once stable, extend your right leg outwards (backward), before lifting it 3 to 4 inches and back down (without letting your right leg/foot touch the floor).
Once you’ve completed the steps above, alternate legs and repeat the exercise.
I recommend starting each exercise performing ten reps; 3 sets and you may gradually increase both the reps and sets as you become more comfortable with the exercises.
Not only will these exercises help you work towards your goals, but the workouts themselves are invigorating and energizing! After a little consistency you’ll start to notice the change and not only will you look amazing, you’ll feel great too!
These fat burning and muscle toning workouts work the butt muscles and will have them bigger than ever before. You’ll have a nicer butt and tons of energy, feeling good as a consequence.
