    Fuji...

    You got the round mound girl...

    I can't imagine how much work you put in to get those results

    Mad props

    You did good!

    WHOS THREAD IS THIS?!? And you guys don't get it. I will never have a fat butt. I have a big stomach and stupid 36ddd boobs. I don't want a tone perky butt, I want a fat one :-( now I just have tone perfect legs and a fat stomach and stupidly big boobs.

    Don't be mad because someone came along to show that you can, in fact, grow a bigger booty.

    Wow nice booty, n ur quads r huge!

    I was thinking the same thing...nice.

    To the OP keep in mind you won't do this over night and while building glutes you will be building other muscles as well...

    Note the pic....and her quads...

    it is doable...to a point genetics will play a part.

    I'm glad you pointed out how awesome her quads are too! Her legs are as amazing as her butt.

    Squats + a caloric surplus = bigger butt
    Muscles don't grow unless you're feeding them properly.

    Squats + caloric surplus + patience + consistency + optional glute isolation exercises = bigger glutes

    Well Under Armour's I guess, but Fujiberry just gave you a road map to a larger butt (well done, btw!!) and what you should be doing is googling the things she mentioned or asking her more questions.

    Yeah, girl!

    That's my goal. It's like I'm losing fat everywhere, but my butt is still this sad, flat little thing. Have been squatting my heart out, but now I just have this hard, sad, flat little thing.

    I realize, though, that I'm just going to have to be patient. I've been doing a lot of lifting and have been successful, so far, in dropping my BF% and shrinking quite a bit; however, because I'm working on getting rid of fat, I'm also not eating nearly enough to build much muscle. I'm eating a lot (compared to what I was before I was lifting), but just not at a sufficient surplus to get the bum of my dreams. Right now, I've got to keep on track, doing what I'm doing, and accept the fact that a nice round bottom will come (much) later.

    Well done! OP now has a great example of what to do.

    You need a calorie surplus to get bigger anywhere. Squats are great and all, but you won't gain significant size there unless you eat to gain size.

    If you want it to just be fat, just sit around and eat loads, but if your body and weight gain is anything like mine, it'll just go straight to your belly (or where-ever else you're prone to gaining) You can't spot reduce fat, you can't spot gain fat.

    An easier way to get a bigger butt would be to continue to squat with challenging weights, aim to increase them and get stronger over time. Also, eat in a surplus. You will gain muscle and fat.

    Her quad development was the result of conscious effort to build up her quads, not the byproduct of glute training gone rogue.

    I never said it was a by product of it but...when doing specific exercises to build glute muscles you will typcially hit other muscle...squats hit your quads and glutes as do most others...you have to specific target the glutes without activating the quads to ensure it doesn't happen...and based on the OP's post she is not interested in even checking to see what those might be.

    Unless of course you want to give her a list.....

    well if all you want is a fat butt then eat lots more food and be prepared it will get big but so will your belly and boobs...

    I have a friend a lot like you, she really wanted a fat butt so she tried lots of exercises and eating a lot, but fat didn't naturally distribute to that area. On my end, I'm after a flat butt, so I'm on a calorie deficit to make it smaller.

    I heard you get a bigger butt by squatting in the smith machine.

    Not sure if serious or if trolling...

    Not trolling, just joking because I thought the op was trying to be funny. Unfortunately, it appears I was mistaken.
