How To Build a Bigger Butt
~ Butt Building Exercises ~

It seems like a lot of people are looking for ways to build a bigger butt. Some people are even opting for risky surgery just to get a plump backside. Remember, your butt is a muscle so it CAN be built through butt building exercises!

Even though these butt building exercises will help shape your booty, it's important to know that the way you position your body and even how you stand can have an impact on the way you look as well as the way you execute an exercise move.

If you're working your butt off, or should I say...working hard to build your butt, but you notice that your not seeing the results your looking for, then you may need to look at your posture.

As crazy as it sounds, poor posture can be the reason your butt is staying the same.

Get To Know Your Butt

If you're really looking to build a bigger butt, then let's get an understanding of HOW your butt muscles work.

Your butt muscle is one of the biggest muscles in your body and it's main function is to extend your hips backwards, and of course movement...which is very important.

Moving your hips backwards is what shifts you forward with every step you take. Your butt muscles is what moves your body up when you step up on something and it's ALSO what helps to stabilize your body and keep it upright while standing.

Now, If you're still wondering how your posture and the way you STAND has a negative effect on the way your butt works and grows, then let me break it down for you...

Stand Up Straight &
Recruit Your Gluteus Maximus!

When you stand, your hips should be lined up with your shoulders, this way you're standing up straight.

If you look around you'll notice that a lot of people stand with their hips pushed FORWARD in comparison to their shoulders. Standing like this "tucks" the butt under the hips.

If this is you, then I'll be the first to tell you...sorry, but you have bad posture.

If your hips are shifted forward, then your butt muscles are damn near taken out of the equation. Your glutes are going to relax and don't do the job they're supposed to do. Hence the term....lazy butt!!

When you don't work your muscles, what happens? They get smaller and weaker. So if your butt muscles aren't being recruited, then your body will strengthen OTHER muscles in your body to compensate for the "lazy butt".

How does this effect you when doing butt building exercises? Well, since your body isn't used to using the butt muscles, it'll have a hard time activating them so your thighs will take over the movement.

This is the reason you should always perfect your form with any exercise, that way you're recruiting the muscle you're targeting.

Fix Your Posture, Fix Your Form

Knowing how your posture can effect building a bigger butt, then you can see why it's so important to have proper form when doing any exercise.

This is why they say QUALITY is better than quantity.

Ab exercises can also help by tightening up your abs that have been stretched out from the "hips-forward" posture. If you keep your abs tight and "in", it will help you to keep your hips back and in the right position.

You may have to RETRAIN your body to use the glutes correctly. It's not going to be a quick fix but it IS an effective fix and can be done with almost little effort.

Once your body starts learning how to use the butt muscles again, you'll have an easier time building the bigger butt you're looking for!

Changing the way you stand isn't going to give you a bigger butt overnight, but it WILL set the stage so that what you ARE doing to improve your glutes is more effective!
