Question
i have a flat behind... will running and exercise/weights make it stick out more.. or will it just tone?
i would like that nice round effect... but i cant seem to get there
Hello-
Exercise and resistance training could help increase the size of the gluteus maximus muscle which could help a little. I'm assuming that you are a female and if so, have you thought about putting on a few pounds to help increase the fatty tissue back there? Without a specialized plan to increase the muscle size quite a bit, the change may be hard to notice without adding fatty tissue too.
I have an online personal training program that you can take a look at on my website at www.milehighfitness.efitnesstracker.com. It is extremely affordable and I could give you specific exercises to help out.
I hope this helps, thanks for the question.
