    I have had this problem as a black woman my whole life! Now that I have lost weight and the shape is better and I still have the issue, I love having it though, so...find a good tailor.

    I went through the same thing when I started lifting. My pants got tighter through the thighs, and the rump, but loosened around the waist band. I saw more definition, and lift in my rump, and thighs too.

    Muscles that get worked alot and hard store more water and glycogen within the cells, which increases size.

    ^^^ so do this mean I should cut back, or is it good? I like having a booty though haha
    Get bigger pants. Having a bigger booty is nice.

    Get better pants. Seriously.

    I know some cyclist track sprinters. Some of the weirdest, humongous legs ( Do a search on Robert Förstemann). They all wear tailored and/or specialized clothing.
