Looking to shape your butt? Try these exercises.

Stiff leg deadlift: Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, grasp a barbell. Keep the knees slightly bent (or straight). Lower from the hips and raise the barbell. Maintain a neutral curve in your back. Squeeze through the butt and hamstrings to come back up and repeat. This move is excellent for hamstrings strength and development. Complete 10-16 repetitions of this move.

Romanian deadlift: Keep your feet wide apart. Use the same stance as regular deadlifts but don’t bend your knees. Bend from the hips, and lift the barbell slowly along the thighs without squatting. Stop raising the bar when it is below your knee caps. Hold for a second, lower slowly and come back to start position. It is excellent for hamstrings and glutes. Do two sets of 12 repetitions of the Romanian deadlift. Also, try these exercises to lose weight from your buttocks.

Keep in mind: Avoid these  moves if you have a lower back injury.
