I am 5'5" roughly 130lbs. I have been hitting the weights at the gym about 3x a week, no cardio. I eat well during the week and i splurge somewhat on the weekends... nothing crazy but I'll have a good meal for dinner like a couple slices of pizza for example.

I haven't seen much progress and I am starting to get discouraged. I feel like pictures can tell a lot and that I'm being realistic when i say that there is little to no progress after working my butt off for 4 months. I would love to a lot of growth in this little booty. I have very little to work with so i expected that it would take time. It's just a little discouraging to see people with similar build progress so much within the same time frame.

    It's difficult to tell booty gains from that angle, I would recommend a side view without trying to pose them for maximum effect.

    Many things could be happening why you see no gains. You look leaner from first to last photo, which leads me to suspect you are probably not in much of a consistent surplus. To gain you need to be surplus. Another's thing could be training intensity, has reps and weights remained the same?

    Lastly, it's only four months. Physique development takes longer than an arbitrary four months. I also recommend taking tape measurements of the areas you want to see growth in.

    There's definitely a difference, especially if you look at September compared to now. But yeah, you can't really tell for your bum at that angle.
