what types of workouts were you doing? Not all workouts are conducive to growing the glutes. For example, running will shred your leg muscles (think how long distance runner look. Thin with no strong leg muscle).
Right now I do weight training with a focus on lower body. Compound movements like Squats, deadlifts and hip thrust and then other movements to create a nice shape to the rest of my legs and whole body. I do cardio only twice a week and when I do it’s not running. I’ll do stair master, elliptical or sprints (which are good unlike long runs). I also try to walk a lot more. A lot of folks under estimate how much walking can help get your weight down.
I would follow Bret Contreras on IG. He is the master. Right now I do Stephanie Buttermore’s plan but I rotate my plan few months.
Also make sure to push yourself in the gym. Not overdo it, but don’t mess around. I follow Mike Rashid on YT for that type of advice. He pushes himself and I have incorporated some of his tips.
How did you use his guide?
Can you clarify? He as in Bret Contreras?
I used Stephanie Buttermore's guide and its pretty self explanatory. I used the knowledge Bret provides to make sure I know the science behind what I'm doing and to make my own workouts when I'm not following some's guide.
Hope that answers your question!
Yes you can but if you don't have hips you won't gain hips. But you can become curvier. You will also need to gain weight and eat healthy to maintain a flat stomach.
I get asked if i run track all... i thought i was becoming too muscular!well the volleyball player comment is definitely a compliment, they really have the nicest bodies. track girls are a close second
I think you can get lower body curves (thighs/bum) in the gym, but upper body like your waist and boobs are genetic.
I saw a post on IG of some flat booty white girl working out and developing a really nice butt. She said it took 3 years of following Bret Contreras' plan but it's doable.
I'm so happy I downloaded that leak a few weeks back, I'm gonna start his program this month
Taylor Swift ain't turning to Beyonce because of the gym. Cut that fake science. And Taylor like Beyonce both work out and are rich.Just cuz you don’t know what you’re doing in the gym doesn’t mean it’s not possible. Weight training and building muscle in the right places gives a woman curves, period. You can build up your shoulders, back and lower body to create that look. Believe what you want, I’ll keep snatching my sexy body in the gym cuz it works !!
They call Gina Rodriguez fridge built and she's in works out everyday. How come it isn't helping her look like Halle Berry?you guys still spreading lies and dreams? why is no one producing scientific proof? only some youtube, gram person.
they didn't get a juicy fat butt from the gym or healthy eating. the gym does not redistribute fat it suppose to shred fat, condition muscles.
Because Gina was a professional fighter, her workouts were most likely focused on strength and not on aesthetics. In simple words: she wasn’t trying to look like Halle Berry in the first place.They call Gina Rodriguez fridge built and she's in works out everyday.

You ain't answer the question. How come she can't escape that box shape? No matter what? I know she isn't trying to look like Berry. How come Taylor Swift can't get Marilyn Monroe's body in the gym? lol *Of course I know why women cannot change the body type they're born with without plastic, which is older than everyone on this board * The model on "Let's Make Deal" has a totally different body type from Beyonce.Because Gina was a professional fighter, her workouts were most likely focused on strength and not on aesthetics.

You are making a lot of assumptions. Maybe Gina doesn’t want to escape that box shape. Again, she’s a fighter by profession, she is training to be strong, not to look like a Beyoncé or Halle Berry. How do you know if Taylor has tried to look like Marilyn Monroe? Has she ever tried? Has she ever said she tried? Or are you assuming she tried to get that shape because said shape is ideal to you? I know it sounds absolutely crazy but some women actually like being thin. I have changed my body type through exercise and have gone from Taylor to slim thick so it is possible. I’ve posted my pictures before on LSA too. But your reasoning is flawed because you are assuming those women are trying to attain the body YOU deem ideal. You seem not to understand that your results will depend on 1) what you are training for ( strength vs hypertrophy vs maintenance, performance vs health vs strength) and on what exercises you’ll be doing. Again, I doubt that model is trying to look like Beyoncé in the first place. Two people working out doesn’t mean they are doing the same thing in the gym.You ain't answer the question.

Yes you can but if you don't have hips you won't gain hips. But you can become curvier. You will also need to gain weight and eat healthy to maintain a flat stomach.
And most people won’t have any significant transform anyway because they don’t have the patience, drive, or knowledge.
What do you mean by the following?We can tell who works out and who doesn’t.
Glutes are a muscle just like any other muscle. And just like any other muscle they contract and relax. So if you keep contracting the muscle all day yes it’ll be more rigid. The same way if you don’t work them out they’ll be flabbier. But you can grow muscle in your glutes like any other muscle. The only genetic factor is your fat deposit. So if you gain weight in your lower body and you work them out then yes you’ll have a bigger butt. That doesn’t mean you can’t get one by working out.
If you want to look “thick” or “slim thick” or whatever you want to call it:
-if you’re fat, lose weight
-if you’re skinny, gain weight
-lift heavy. Like heavy heavy. You should be tired after your workouts.
-weight train <cardio. Contrary to popular belief you can strength train and increase cardio without having to run.
YOU CANNOT SPOT REDUCE NATURALLY. Stop listening to folks trying to tell you to drink all these teas or buy all these creams. The only way to spot reduce is to get it surgically removed.
Waist trainers are not needed. If you need a back support best to get a belt for your lower body workouts like squats and deadlifts.
Prioritize weight training over cardio if you want muscle growth. The known cardio exercises (running, jogging, etc.) aren’t the only way to increase cardio, weight training does just as much. Not to mention if you’re going to weight train hard, typical cardio will tire you faster so you’re more likely to lift less. If you power walk on a treadmill for like 30 minutes and have a day or 2 where you do any cardio (my fave is dance), you’ll have less stress on your joints, you won’t over exert yourself, you can get your cardio in and you’ll have ultimate muscle growth.What do you mean by the following?
