Booty Building 101

A lot of girls, including myself, are obsessed with getting that nice, round and firm butt! Our glutes are actually one the most misunderstood muscle groups to develop, they're one of the largest muscle groups in our bodies.

Doing the RIGHT Exercises

Barbell squats, dead lifts, lunges, good mornings, and hip thrusts are considered some of the greatest strength builders by power lifters, bodybuilders and athletes for a good reason. They're insanely good for building strength and muscle. If you aren't doing these exercises weekly and you want to build your butt, you will have a long, hard and frustrated road ahead of you to get that perfect peach.

Good Form

A big part of doing the right exercises is also making sure that you are doing them right, and that you are focusing on feeling it in your glutes. When I first started out, I always felt my squats in my quads. This was something I quickly figured out that I needed to change where I really focused. Have someone watch you do it, or just really FOCUS on your glutes, and you'll feel it more.

Build Some Muscle

Giphy

So you want that perfect peach, AWESOME. Let's build some muscle. There are two types of muscle fibers, you want to focus on fast twitch muscle fibers. They have an incredible capacity for visible change. They're responsible for high force production and strength. Meaning, they adapt to the right training by becoming bigger, which is what we want right? Train with heavier weights and I promise you will see visible changes so much faster. Also, because these fibers grow, they also burn more calories. So try to train with a heavier weight that you can properly control and stay within the 6-15 reps range. And I have to say this again, MAKE SURE YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR WEIGHT. If 30lbs is heavy weight for you, then great. As long as it feels heavier for you, and you can control the weight properly, you're on the right track.


I hope these help you a little bit on your booty building journey! Just changing which exercises I do more frequently and bumping up the weight I do them with has been a major game changer for my butt!!!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
