What Compound exercises help to lose belly fat?
The only true way to lose belly fat is to take in less calories than you use. There are individual foods that boost metabolism (slightly), but these will never have the same impact as diet and exercise. Diet alone isn't enough for most people - you need to be active. Find little ways to add activity to your everyday routine; it can go a long way.

For a 13 year old girl, I'd suggest doing push ups, sit ups, and try not to eat so much. Limit unhealthy snacks and eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Instead of drinking soda, try milk and water (because those are the healthiest drinks). Limit going to restaurants, and when you do, order fruits or vegetables instead of fries with your entree. And, if you need to be flexible, then stretch often. Also, ride your bike and exercise often. If you are still experiencing weight issues, try going to a doctor or check your weight online on the BMI for children website. And for a 13 year old girl, 87 pounds sounds under weight, and it seems weird to have a big stomach considering how much you weigh, so try going to a doctor, there could be something wrong with your body. Once you loose the weight, try to keep it off, even though unhealthy snacks taste so good, they aren't good for you, so try to not eat them as much.

How does using the correct technique prevent injuries?
There are two main reasons to use correct form: First, the body is limited in its range of motion, and second, the body works better when the forces and movements are "aligned" in the way that allows the body to work best.
These two issues apply for all human physical activities, whether one considers sports or job activities, or simple day-to-day movement.
Here is some explanation of both reasons:
FIRST: human joints are not infinitely movable. Certain athletes (such as gymnasts and ballerinas) are very flexible, but even they cannot move their arms and legs in any way they please. Thus, proper technique ensures you do not exceed your own range of motion for your joints.
SECOND: Consider the body to be made up of a bunch of levers. Bones are the lever arm, and muscles provide the force to move the levers which in turn allow the body to do the physical things the body does. Levers essentially work in 2 dimensions -- up and down, and along the lever arm. When work is done along those dimensions, maximum force is provided through the least exertion, AND this happens to be the form of movement that results in the least strain on tendons, ligaments, and connective tissues inside joints. When work is done in a manner that includes the third dimension (consider "side to side" to be third dimension), all of the tissues in a particular joint are stressed, and may be over-stressed quite easily.
The result of this over-stress are often "soft tissue" injuries: tendonitis, sprains and strains, muscle tears. Occasionally the over-stress can result in broken bones, particularly the bones of the ankle and wrist.

Does riding a stationary bike make your butt bigger or smaller?
The easy answer is, neither bigger or smaller. Your butt is just sitting there. Think of aerobic exercise as a whole body exercise. However, it will get smaller if you are starting with a more than average fat supply. And, if your intensity and mileage is high enough, you will be building muscle in your legs, and butt area, but most people will not experience a bigger butt.
Do trampolines help strengthen your leg muscles?
Everyone knows trampolines are fun, but not everyone knows that there are many benefits of jumping on a trampoline. Both adults and children can benefit from regular exercise on a full size trampoline or a rebounder (a small trampoline). Physical Benefits There are many physical benefits to jumping on a trampoline. They include: A cardiovascular workout - Jumping on a trampoline increases the heart rate and gives your heart, a very important muscle, a great workout. A workout for the muscles - A great workout for the feet muscles up to the stomach muscles occurs when bouncing on the trampoline for even a few minutes. Weight loss - The combination of cardiovascular exercise and the strengthening of the muscles contributes weight loss. As muscles strengthen they aide in the increase of the metabolism which helps to burn fat. The cardiovascular workout burns calories. By jumping on a trampoline for 20-30 minutes 3-4 times a week, weight loss can occur. Improved flexibility - Jumping on a trampoline strengthens and lengthens muscles improving flexibility. Increased bone density - Exercise can strengthen bone density as well as muscles. Increased bone density helps to prevent broken or fractured bones and osteoporosis. Improved joint, tendon and ligament function - The strengthening of joints, tendons and ligaments can help to reduce the chances of some forms of arthritis and lessen the pain in some arthritic joints. Development of balance and coordination - Balancing on a trampoline is unlike balancing on anything else. The trampoline floor is constantly moving and jumpers must be aware of their center of gravity at all times. The balance learned on a trampoline helps improve balance in other activities. Improved posture - Along with improved balance, jumping on a trampoline can improve posture. Development of motor skills - The brain is forced to function bilaterally when a jumper is in the air. Both sides of the brain and both sides of the body must work together to maintain coordination and balance when on a trampoline. This increases motor skills.
