Doing butt exercises with weights lets you increase the intensity, challenges your body further, and over time, can help you get stronger and build more muscle, if that's your goal.
Stand with your feet together, holding a weight in each hand in front of your legs.
Shift your weight to your left leg and while keeping a slight bend in your left knee, raise your right leg straight behind your body, hinging at the hips to bring your torso parallel to the floor, and lower the weight toward the floor. Keep your back flat. At the bottom of the movement, your torso and right leg should be almost parallel to the floor, with the weight a few inches off the ground.
Keeping your core tight, push through your left heel to stand up straight and pull the weight back up to the starting position. Bring your right leg back down to meet your left. Pause there and squeeze your butt. Then, step back with your right foot, landing on the ball of your right foot and keeping your heel off the ground.In this positioning, your shoulders should be above your hips and your chest should be upright . Your left shin should be perpendicular to the floor and your left knee should be stacked above your left ankle. Your butt and core should be engaged.Do all your reps on one side, then repeat with the other leg.
