    There exists an ideal waist to hip ratio that makes you appear more fit, healthy, and attractive. Most men already know that having wider shoulders and a narrower waist makes you appear more masculine but very few men are aware that you want your waist to hip ratio to at least be under .95 to have optimal masculine proportions while simultaneously decreasing the chances of developing a number of chronic diseases. That's right having small glutes in combination with a large waist can be used as a major indicator that you're at a much higher risk for developing issues like high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes. Obviously the size of your waist is mostly influenced by diet but the size and composition your glutes and hips are hugely influenced by your workout program, the exercises you're doing, and how your performing those exercises.
    By applying the 5 steps im about to go over you can transform a saggy pancake butt to firm round glutes as fast as possible
    First I see a lot of people spending too much time focusing on exercises that attempt to isolate the glutes like the kick back glute machine, cable hip extensions, and even hip thrusts. And even though some of these exercises can be used effectively they are nowhere near as effective as the basics, which primarily include squats and deadlifts. So step one is to include heavy squats and Romanian deadlifts in your workout routine. You don't have to do both in one session, but you should start each of your leg workouts with at least 3 to 4 heavy sets of one of these two exercises. Skipping over these more demanding exercises and replacing it with glute kick backs or cable hip extensions is not going to get you anywhere near he results that you can achieve by progressing at exercises like barbell squats and Romanian deadlifts. Now there are other very effective exercises for your glutes as well like Bulgarian split squats, walking lunges, and step ups, and you can and should include these exercises into your leg day after you've already put your best effort into 3 or 4 sets of heavy squats or deadlifts, but I still recommend that you start with and primarily focus on improving your squats and deadlifts if you want the fastest track to nicer glutes. And by the way if you're not exactly sure how to properly do these exercises stick with me because I'm going to show you exactly how to do these with perfect form a little later in the video
    But first lets move on to step 2 which is to get stronger at these exercises overtime. This is critical and most regular gymgoers ignore this crucial step. They do squats either just use their body weight or they do the same weight load week after week and are surprised when they see little to no results. Just like other muscles your glutes will only grow if they are challenged enough to do so. One of the best and most accurate failproof ways to ensure that you're increasing the challenge and progressively overloading overtime is to constantly try to up the weight. This is something that I've talked about many times before in videos about other muscle groups, but the things that make any one muscle grow will typically apply across the board to other muscles groups in your body. One of the simplest ways to consistently increase weight load is to up the weight everytime you hit the upper end of your rep range.
    I know this method may sound super simple, but I promise you it's extremely effective for getting stronger at almost any exercise. One of my favorite rep ranges to stay within especially at an exercise like squats where going to failure is dangerous, is 6 to 10 reps. So lets say you usually do squats with 135 pounds and you can complete 10 reps. You should try to up the weight by 5 pounds on each side and then the goal is to still shoot for the 10 reps. However, you may find that when you up the weight you can't complete all 10 reps and instead can only do 8 reps. That's totally fine, your new goal is now to use that heavier weight week after week until you can complete 10 reps on your first set. Once you can do that, rinse wash and repeat the process over and over again until your lifting significantly more weight than what you started with and I promise you this alone will dramatically improve your glutes. Sometimes you may have a week where you up the weight and you can still do 10 reps with that new heavier weight load because you've gotten that much stronger. That simply means you should up the weight again, until your no longer at the upper end of your rep range, and then work your way back to 10 reps over time.
    The next step is to make sure that you do this at least twice a week...

    1. Make sure you don't forget to do squats and deadlifts.
    2. Up the weight over time. Try upping the weight at the end of your rep range.
    3. Work legs out specifically 2x per week (every 3-4 days).
    4. Optimize your diet
    5. Recovery & consistency. Recovery: space heavy leg day sessions by 48-72 hours, don't do a ton of cardio during recovery time, sleep 7-9 hours daily. Consistency: establish these steps as habit.

    You dont need to lift heavy. You could go for high reps to save your joints but make sure you go to failure. I go on the bike and deep squat every day, in addition to a couple of glute focused exercises (swinging kettlebell). My squats are high rep. I dont count my reps. I just keep going until failure and until I cannot maintain proper form. It has worked wonders. Consistency, time, and discipline are key.

      When I do the leg press, or step ups, I literally have to find my glute muscles via fingertips to make sure the glutes are firing like a convulsing baseball. I've even been able to improve various glute prone exercises this way. Because some really don't fire up the glutes as much as others. It's rather odd to be doing this, especially at the gym, and awkward, but at least I know the glutes are being activated.

      Try sprinting to failure, especially on an inclined surface like a hill. Do 3-6 series of full speed sprints with 2 minute walks between

      i just learned that women don't really have that high levels of testosterone to induce big hypertrophy immediately. you will need to train 3-5 years, along with body fat of less than 20% before you become muscular. sure, you might look bulky at first when starting to build muscle under the existing body fat.
      you might consider doing a recomp too. basically you can start being in a deficit of atleast 300 while maintaining 1.2 to 1.6 g of protein per lean body weight. this will give you enough tone to lift them up yet retain enough fat to make them look rounded

    I can't do squats and Deads because of my spine. I need to avoid compression. (I'm a 70 yo male), but I can do incline leg presses, thrusts, and cable pulls with ankle cuffs.
    I WAS only doing Incline leg presses but wasn't getting gains even thou I was doing 230 lbs on that. but ya gotta mix it up. Took me awhile to figure out the right form for the thrust exercise (feet on floor, upper back on bench with a 50 lb dumbell on your crotch. (and my problem with that is that I can't get a heavier dumbell on my crotch because It's too heavy to pick up while sitting on the floor.) but between that and the cable pull I can feel the DOMS in my glutes the next day.
    I'm thinking of trying to use the smith machine so I can load up the bar with 70 lbs and put one of those foam softies on the bar . But it's hard to get the right form with that.
    I"ll keep trying thou.
    It's so odd. All I have to do is LOOK at a tricep pull down and my triceps will grow. But my ass ? nope.

    I don't know why but squats never do it for me no matter how much I try to work on my form and brain-muscle connection...etc I always get more quads activation than glutes 😢 maybe it's because I have disproportionately long legs compared to my torso. But biomechanically I just can't seem to hit my glutes with squats. When I moved to hip thrusts I saw amazing results so I'm happy with this exercise. remember humans are created differently and what applies to someone doesn't have to apply to everyone.

      I've had the same problem: I also think I have long thighs. I did work hard on making squats and developed my quads more than my glutes as a result. I think it's because we don't lean forward our torso enough. From my experience, deadlifts are better. But I don't renounce squats altogether. Bulgarian split squats are good too (don't forget to lean your torso forward) and develop the whole leg - you don't want rounder glutes with plain ordinary legs, come on ;-)

      you can try squatting in a more upright position. start with your bodyweight. the trick is to make your movements as slow and controlled as possible. my glutes were firing crazy when i did it like that. i usually feel them once i'm trying to go up. i use them to push me up by clenching them as hard as god forbid, along with my chest tall, chin at neutral position

      make sure to first activate your glute first before getting any leg exercises to engage them better. i was advised to clench my glutes as hard as i can and hold for 30 seconds, then rest, then repeat 10x, then rest. then start your workout. you want to wake them up first ti really engage them. regular static and dynamic warmups are not going to wake them up enough. remember, glutes are our biggest muscle in the body, regardless of gender. that's why it's really crucial that they are being activated first and then tire that bich out to failure. it's really impressive how well they can handle stress, as they are mainly responsible for supporting legs, core and back as a whole
