I'm a guy with a big butt problem

Hey everyone, so for my body I seem to keep most of the fat toward the butt and thighs and some on my stomach. I have skinnier wrists and calves and have a stocky mid section. I'm currently doing the 5x5 program to help gain strength and even out my body and burn the fat in my mid section. But my butt is top priority cuz I don't think it's normal for a guy to have a butt like me! So do I just simply do more cardio?

    What kind of butt would you feel happiest with? Like, what butts are you comparing yours to that makes you feel yours is not normal?

    Looks pretty normal to me. But if you're still not sure, google Anterior Pelvis Tilt. It can be corrected with specific stretches.

    How much is muscle? I think it fits your physique and would just assume it's muscle. Only you or your trainer would know whether there's too much fat there filling it out, imho. It looks nice!

    I think good glutes on guys who lift are important. It's not just us ladies who should be considering that ;)

    I run to trim down my butt and thighs. I like weights too to help keep the muscle intact.

    I know we're harder on ourselves than other but I must say, your butt is definitely not something to complain about ;) but again, I can understand where you're coming from

    I like it.
    My SO has a soccer player and climber butt; muscular, high, round, and solid, thighs to match. Sexy as he||.
    Lift heavy and emphasize your assets.

    Cheers, h.

    Stuff leg deadlifts make the round firm mound.

    Not sure if you want to replace something fluffy with something firm or just have some size reduction in mind

    IMO most women don't go for the no-assed look!

    Ha

    Good luck with it.

    your bottom looks good, it doesnt look big
    does it stand out more to you when wearing gym type clothes?

    Came in expecting your avi face with Kardashian butt. Kind of disappointed.

    You're fine, really. Be happy you have something to keep your pants up. Keep up with your lifting and lose fat if needed but I wouldn't be worried about being too big.

    Don't worry, as you age, it'll go away.

    I'm completely missing the problem. Also, my friend and I may have stalked a guy with a rather large behind through Sports Authority. She was drooling, and I was curious how much he could deadlift...

    I see absolutely no problem with your tush. It's one of the better ones, actually. :)

    Thanks for your opinions and input guys. Like I said, the picture doesn't do it justice. I'm looking into the anterior pelvic tilt, as I'm sure that may help the issue since I do have a back problem. This *kitten* still fat though lol.

    Looks normal to me not the calipygian kardashian like monstrosity you seem to think you have are you sure you may not have be mistaken in the size ?
    I have a touch of body dysmorphia from being told i had a bug butt all thru childhood even when i was skinny and now i look back at my pictures and i am so angry because it really lowered my self esteem
    (This was back in the day when narrow skinny flat butts like Paris Hilton or Olivia newton john's were considered desirable for women )
    So OP dont think of yourself as having anterior pelvis or whatever rubbish someone else tells you there is a lot of internalised body dysmorphia on the forum and it is very tempting to agree with others when they give you a fake medical sounding diagnosis from one single picture you look healthy otherwise

    I'm very disappointed with the lack of puns in this thread.
