For two of our workouts, your starting position is on your knees.

Like the arms and the stomach, the buttocks are muscles women always want to look good. We have the exercises to help you firm up that derrire!

These three exercises are all easy to do and don't require you to use any weights.

Two of them start with you in a kneeling position with your hands on the floor (or mat), with your arms extended but not rigid. You can slightly bend the elbows.

In the first exercise, extend your leg and return to original position. Keep the arms still pressed against the ground and torso upright. It is recommended you start out with 15 repetitions for each leg and gradually increase as you go along.

The second exercise requires you to lift your leg to the side, knee still bent. Like the first, start out with about 15 repetitions and gradually increase.

The third exercise begins with you lying on your back, knees bent with soles on the ground. Lift your hips without lifting your hands off the mat to help you up. The onus must be on the middle area of the body to do the work.

Like the first two, start with a low number of repetitions and increase as you get stronger.

Left: Lie flat on your back with knees bent and palms relaxed to your sides. Right: Lift the hips, using very little if any help from the hands. To increase the resistance of thisexercise, when you lower your hips, don't let them touch the mat. Stop your descent about an inch off the mat.

Left: Make sure to keep the torso steady. Only the hip should be twisting. Right: Don't lift the leg too high up. That can cause damage to your spine.
