    maybe look into your body composition. work to get that hour glass shape. thinning our your mid section to give illusion of larger butt! obviously also SQUATS! and the lovely lunges. Bulgarian squats... I have a love hate relationship with those! but LOVE deadlifts!!!

    keep up the hard work! trust me in time it will come! keep going!

    I have a flat butt...and I hate it. Does bulking and working the gluteus muscles build a bigger butt? AND When you bulk...how many calories OVER TDEE does one aim for?


    You don't necessarly need a bulk to achieve a more sculpted behind. Compound exercises like Squats and deadlifts are great. Also, Hip thrusters, glute bridge, walking lunges......

    Check out Bret Contreras for more info...

    So, squat away, do your deadlifts, do ballet kicks, kicking behind you while standing up straight and facing a wall or barre, and you will see a difference.

    Kicks like that (plus stuff like bird dogs and superman holds) are a surprisingly good glute workout. Even walking with obscenely exaggerated glute activation.

    Once the movement passes into the hyperextension zone, the load needed to really work the glutes good goes way down, especially if the movement includes ab activation (an antagonist).

    Don't need to necessarily bulk. I always had a pancake butt and even my own mother would make fun of me for it. I've been lifting consistently for about six months now, including doing squats and deadlifts and my butt has definitely improved. I wish I had taken before and after pictures but now it fills out my pants where it didn't before, and even my mom has commented that it looks better. It's not a super amazing butt but it is better than before and will probably continue to improve. You do have to make sure you get enough protein.

    I've always had plenty of junk in the trunk, but thanks to squats and deadlifts, I am developing a very distict line between *kitten* and leg. My trunk-junk is rounder and higher, and seems to climb up half an inch every week :)

    This! +99... As the others said. It is very well organized, detailed examples of the each exercise. Well written and broken down. Guys can use this book too! It ain't just gals and round buns. Worth the $20 easily.
