I feel like we're all getting trolled but if you want those particular areas to get heavier then you'd want to do some kind of focused strength training that targets your thighs, butt and calves. To the detriment of any other areas. Then if you had fat on top of that muscle then they might all appear larger.
Really though you should just try a Bret Contreras routine, he seems to focus on this stuff.0 -
you don't have to be condescending frankly . "slim thick" is a slang or combination of two words meaning slim ( at the waist areas, arms and fit) and thick (curvy, at the thighs,bum and chest). Not all of us desire to gain weight with the purpose of looking like testosterone injected women. When our vocabulary is limited I strongly suggest we refrain from making comments . Any weight gain suggestions?. Thanks.Springfield1970 wrote: »

Make some research on maca . It's a natural supplement and it really helps. I'm on 1000mg a day and a few other herbs. I'm not a junk eater so I'm sticking to oils like olive and protein bars. Yoga is amazing for curves too. Any progress?1 -
When I was in my late teens and early 20s, I thought the same thing, too. I was very thin, straight up and down... able to wear the same clothes from junior high. Heck, sometimes I bought clothes in the little girls department because even juniors were too big (this was in the early 90s, and size 0 didn't exist yet).
Then in my mid 20s, BOOM, instant hips, bum and thighs. So my advice is, yes, absolutely eat right and strength train, because you'll never regret that, but also have patience because your body is still developing and changing.0 -

Right
So you want to change your body type
Go back in time and pick different parents ...it's genetic
Weight gain...eat at a surplus and do progressive heavy weights programme it will take you a few years but you may increase the bulk in your butt/ thighs with a bulking and cutting programme

Ridiculous waste of time ....no supplement is going to help
Yoga is amazing for many things ...adding curves isn't one of them0 -
