Besides squats, lunges are my favorite thing to do for a great butt work out. It is also great for your hamstrings and glutes.

Stand straight, keep your hands on your hips. lunge forward and lower your body down, the lower you go the better it is for your butt.

Remember to keep your back straight . Stand back and switch off to other legs, and repeat. I try to do 2 reps of 10 each.
