What would you recommend for toning a saggy bum?

[cheermeup]

Can cycling help? Any tips would be great.

Defnitely - I cycle a lot and have a fab arse. unfortunately my stomach is as big and more wobbly. Maybe I need to cycle upsidedown.

Oh that is great. I can definately feel my bum working when i cycle up hills. I think it is slowly toning up!

Good for you, wifeofdoom. I love it when women are complimentary of their own bods.

Running or cycling or any cardio will help your bum but also do squats, lunges things like that which target your bum area by building and shaping the muscle and lift it up. First use your own body weight as resistance then use weights.

Donkey kicks are supposed to be best of all

Body Pump class.

And a donkey kick is......

These:

MBTs - supposedly for one hour a day, but wear them all the time

Spinning is great for toning up your legs and bum. Stick loads of resistance on - as much as you can handle - and go for it.

Squats, lunges and glute raises will work too. The trick with any exercise is to work slowly through the full range of movement and to SQUEEZE the muscle you are working - so for squats, press your heels into the floor as you lift, (exhale on lift) lunges, press all your weight into the front foot as you lift, and squeeze your bum like there's a winning lottery ticket between your cheeks that someone is trying to pull out.
