OK. I've been going strong for over two years. I've lost 65 lbs to date. I'm doing P90X faithfully for the first time and just crossed the 60 Day mark.

I'm seeing sculpture and everything in places I've never had before and I'm happy (don't get me wrong!).

But, what is it with butts and thighs? It literally is the last place that it comes off or shapes. What about you all?

I see sculpt at my hamstrings, knees and quads...but the thighs and butt...>SLOW!

Your thoughts and help would be appreciated! :)

    Every body is different. Each body will have its own unique transformation process. Just keep going at it and the results you want will come.

    Im not doing P90X (yet) but my body reacts the same way. I don't know what's wrong with my butt, but it ain't getting more toned! LOL. Everything else goes first for me too. My butt is definitely smaller, but I'm still waiting for it to.. you know..

    One word: Squats.

    Two words: Heavy squats.

    My tummy likes to hang onto the fat. It is def my weakest area. :/

    Body types are different. My arms for example tone up faster than anywhere else on my body. One thing we have in common is that I did P90x too and noticed some of the same issues. So I switched and now do Brazilian Butt Lift. Let me tell you...it's awesome. My thighs and butt have never looked better, but also my abs, back, and arms are in great shape. It's worked so far. Hope this helps you out.

    I'm probably going to get this. However, it's to tone your butt and thighs. It won't magically remove the fat on top of them, much like doing situps won't get rid of a beer gut.

    OP it looks like you're a pear shape. that's genetic. i understand your frustration though. i'm not a pear shape but i have my own problem area which happens to be the first place my body adds extra weight, so i have very little hope that nothing less than dropping down to 10% body fat would decrease it.
