		<description>for butt, squats are best, but you have to do them right. don&#039;t let knees go past toes, keep back straight, stick butt out. for hamstrings (back of thighs), try hamstring curls - bring heel toward butt with weights, or sit in an office chair on wheels and pull yourself along digging your heels into the ground ( propel forward)

		<description>Squats work really well, and leg-circles. 
Leg-circles: Stand with your feet apart, a pillow centered behind you. (you can hold on to a chair for support) and slowly bring your leg clockwise around the pillow and back.</description>

		<description>Squats, dead lift and hamstring curls in that order twice a week. Then do runs with short sprint bursts twice a week. Eat well and you should notice the difference in 1 month</description>

		<description>Chair Squat
Stand in front of a chair with feet hip-width apart, abs in and torso straight. Slowly bend your knees and lower and until you&#039;re almost touching your butt to the chair. Hold for 2-3 seconds, knees behind the toes, and straighten. Repeat for 12-16 reps, 2-3 sets.
Dumbbell Lunge:
Stand with a dumbbell in each hand, feet shoulder width apart, knees slightly bent. 
Step forward with one foot. 
Slowly lower the whole body downward in a controlled movement for a count of four. Both knees bend as the body lowers. Go no farther than 90 degrees with the knee joint. Slowly work up to lowering yourself so that your front thigh is parallel to the ground -- being sure that your front knee does not reach out past your toes (this increases the risk of a knee injury). 
Return to standing, starting position without locking the knee. 
Do 10-12 repetitions, then alternate legs.
(if dont hav edumbbells thats alright)
Bridge:
Lie on your back with knees bent, feet on the floor, hip width apart. 
Beginning with a pelvic tilt (tucking the hips), peel the spine off the floor one vertebrae at a time until you&#039;ve created a diagonal line from the shoulders to the knees. (The heels should be directly under the knees at the highest point.) 
Hold for a few counts, then slowly lower spine squeezing the butt so it is the last thing to touch the ground. Repeat 10-15 times.
