Sedentary lifestyle
Scientists from the University of Oxford, UK, under the leadership of Professor Konstantinos Manolopoulos, examined 1,600 representatives of the fair sex aged 18 to 40 years and came to the conclusion that women with prominent buttocks have excellent health. This has a direct relationship because most of the population of developed countries in the world leads a sedentary lifestyle. Every day a person travels by car or public transport, sits in the office for 8 hours, sleeps on the bed for the same amount of time, and does nothing else. As a result of constant lack of load, muscle fibers in all parts of the body, including in the buttocks, lose tone, weaken, their nervous innervation decreases and they sag. All this leads to flattening and partial atrophy of the gluteal muscles, and also contributes to the development of some other diseases associated with joints and excess weight. Moreover, in women who lead a sedentary lifestyle, but are accustomed to sitting cross-legged, one buttock often differs from the other in size and shape. Sometimes this can be very noticeable. Ladies who have beautiful, firm buttocks are extremely regular gym goers; they spend most of their time training and closely monitor their diet. Professor Manolopoulos proved this with his research - beautiful buttocks are a sign of good health.
How to add volume to your butt at home?
Many people try to enlarge their butt at home and succeed. To do this, they use different means to enlarge the buttocks. We will look at just a few of them.
Visually
Even without surgery, you can give your butt elasticity. Some people use special clothes to enlarge their butts and these tricks are successful. Thus, at home and without much effort, you can decorate your figure. How to do it?
- Jeans. When you buy jeans, choose ones that are stained and faded. The wear should be on the top pockets or on the sides of the hips. Pockets on the butt help to enlarge your butt.
- Shorts. Buy shorts that are light and short, with fringes.
- Trousers. If you like to wear formal trousers, then you need to buy them in light colors.
- Dresses and skirts. Don't wear anything too tight, but if you want, then buy dresses with pockets or ruffles. Zippers and embroidery in the hip area will be very useful.
- Push-up briefs are a win-win option. Special panties help to enlarge the butt under clothes.
Correctly selected clothes can emphasize the advantages of the figure and smooth out its shortcomings.
Using power
Enlarging your butt with nutrition is quite possible. To do this, you need to choose those carbohydrates that will contribute to this, for example:
- fruits,
- bran bread,
- rice,
- vegetables,
- sweet potato,
- coarse cereals.
It is worth giving up pasta and flour products. Stop eating smoked foods and sausages. Drink plenty of clean water, at least three liters a day. Do not put yourself on a strict diet, but replenish your body with useful substances and vitamins. I dedicated a separate extensive article to nutrition!
Important! Do not eat processed foods, as they contain many harmful substances.
Through exercise
It is the exercises that are fully responsible for enlarging the buttocks at home. There are many workout videos you can do at home. Daily exercises help improve your figure in just a few weeks.
Regularity is important in such training. Moreover, a person must perform these exercises efficiently, stretching all the muscles of the butt. I have already described what effective exercises you can do at home.
Using cosmetics
Nowadays, there are many cosmetics that can help you enlarge your butt without training. Such gels perform the following functions:
- saturate cells with oxygen,
- improve blood circulation,
- nourish the body with microelements for rapid cell division,
- the release of growth hormone into the body is accelerated,
- have a warming effect.
Cosmetics affect the shape of the butt in the same way as sports nutrition.
Two examples of effective sprays that I reviewed are Latina Star and Brazilian Bum.
High heels
A large-scale study conducted by scientists from the University of Queensland, Australia, led by Dr. Neil Cronin, identified the following factor, which is directly related to frequent wearing of high-heeled shoes. The maximum load in this case falls on the knee joints, while the posterior group of the thigh muscles and buttocks are involved to a lesser extent. Thus, when walking in high heels, this group of muscle fibers loses their tone, which entails a gradual flattening of the buttocks. In addition, Canadian doctor Victor Celeste found that frequent wearing of high-heeled shoes leads to insufficient blood supply to the pelvic area and buttocks. This also negatively affects not only women's health, but also the elasticity of the muscles in the lower body.
Sports activities for beautiful buttocks
The body of each of us is individual, and each of us has our own problem areas. In this regard, it would be a good idea to outline an individual approach to training with your personal trainer. However, not everyone makes it to the gym, and not everyone chooses individual lessons with a trainer. Otherwise, the result will be more difficult to achieve, but still possible.
So, how to place the right accents in order to achieve the beauty of your “fifth point” in a short time with hard work:
- warm-up - before starting exercises for a particular muscle group, it is correct to “warm up the body” by performing complex exercises; an example could be:
- squats with arms extended forward;
- hands on the belt; alternating leg lunge, three springy swings, changing legs;
- hands on the belt, foot on the toe; circular rotations in the ankle joint;
- feet shoulder-width apart, hands on the belt; three springy tilts in one direction and the other;
- bending back, bending over, reaching your heels with your hands;
- lying on your stomach, hands behind your head, bend back;
- lying down, do push-ups from a gymnastic bench or from the floor;
- circular rotations with straight arms in different directions (right forward, left backward and vice versa);
- hands to shoulders, circular rotations with arms.
- The deadlift is assessed by professionals as a fairly difficult exercise to perform and is as follows:
- starting position - standing straight, legs spread 20-30 cm apart, feet turned slightly to the sides;
- the barbell is on the floor, the bar runs exactly in the center of the foot and is located as close as possible to the leg itself;
- the body is lowered without bending the knees, the bar is grabbed at a distance of 40 cm between the hands - the back is arched upward;
- the next movement is to bend the back down, the pelvis is pulled back - bend your knees, push your chest forward, and bend your lower back; You should feel tension in the lower back muscles and back of the thighs;
- Your hips should not be lowered and you should not sit lower either; placing the chest forward, the barbell is lifted, while the body weight is not transferred to the toes, the bar of the barbell is held as close to the legs as possible; freeze in the final position - the exercise is considered completed;
- heels are spaced slightly wider than shoulders, feet are turned slightly outward (about 35 degrees);
- when lowering down, the body bends at the pelvic and knee joints, the back moves forward; body weight is transferred to the heels;
- keep your back straight, do not allow the top of your back to round; for this, the abdominal muscles are tensed;
- the lower back is not rounded, a slight natural arch in the lumbar region is maintained;
- Do not bring your knees and hips forward beyond your feet, but move them apart;
- You should not lift your head up so as not to provoke a sprain; you need to look forward, keeping your neck in line with your spine;
- when lifting, you need to reach up with your chest, not your forehead;
- when lifting, the knees should not be brought inward;
- squats are performed while inhaling, breathing is held;
- after lifting, exhale;
- take dumbbells in your hands, lower your arms parallel to your body;
- take a step forward with your right foot - the thigh is parallel to the floor, the knee does not extend further than the toe;
- the left leg remains in place, emphasis is placed on the toe, the knee is bent 90°, the knee does not touch the floor;
- return to the starting position by pushing off the floor with your right foot;
- change legs and perform the same number of repetitions for the left leg (10-15);
- place your feet on the platform of the exercise machine wider than your shoulders and as close as possible to the edges of the platform;
- remove the fuse securing the platform of the simulator;
- press the platform up, focusing on your heels;
- when performing the exercise, the lower back should not move away from the pad of the simulator;
- Having completed the required number of repetitions, return the safety lock to its original position;
- Place your torso parallel to the floor, resting on the bench, bend your legs at the knees;
- place the bar or pancake on top of the pelvis and hold it with your hands while performing the exercise;
- lower your pelvis down and lift it up, thereby creating tension for the buttocks.
Pregnancy and childbirth
According to a study by endocrinology scientists from New York University Langone Medical Center, women of European appearance after pregnancy and childbirth are no longer able to achieve firm buttocks without resorting to plastic surgery. Hormonal changes that occur in the female body already in the second trimester of pregnancy lead to the fact that physical activity on the muscles no longer gives the usual results. The subcutaneous fat layer, especially in the abdomen, thighs and buttocks, becomes saturated with female sex hormones. After childbirth, this contributes to the active accumulation of fat, including in the lower parts of the gluteal muscles, which makes it almost impossible to achieve at least their visual elasticity. In addition, the process of natural childbirth is always associated with a slight but obligatory expansion of the pelvic area, which entails stretching and flattening of the buttock muscles. Therefore, doctors from the Langone Medical Center advise women who have given birth, of the European type, who want to achieve beautiful buttocks, to turn to plastic surgeons. In any other case, an attempt to remove subcutaneous fat through dietary restrictions and active training can seriously undermine your health.
Seductive heart shape
The big picture. Men really like this shape. It's all about voluminous hips. If you want to reduce them a little, include aerobic exercises for your legs in your training plan. Working without weights in an intensive mode will help you lose excess volume.
Exercises for the butt. Your buttocks are already quite curvy, but it is important that instead of fat they have muscles. Lunges will help lift your butt; alternate them with stretching exercises for the hamstrings.
