My question isn’t aimed to make anyone feel insecure, it’s more of a fitness question, share any tips and advice if you have any.

Been working out a few times and i am still new to doing it!

Having a nice butt is good to attract a girl 😅

I do glute bridges. I’ve noted they are FAR more effective than squats. I still do squats though.

[Factshurt90]

Glute bridges are specifically for the glutes and lower back. Squats can be all quad if you aren’t doing them to hit the glute. Form is EVERYTHING for the muscle you want to train.

[Nahid1707]

Hi

is glute bridge the one same as butt bridge I referred to?

[Factshurt90]

To my understanding yes.

[Nahid1707]

I been doing that without holding anything on my thigh is that ok?😅😊

[Factshurt90]

For a beginner yes. You’ll need to add weight though.

[Nahid1707]

I appreciate the advice

[ZoeAdams2]

That has been part of my after pregnancy gym routine.

[Nahid1707]

Your first child?😊

[ZoeAdams2]

And second as well.

[Nahid1707]

Aw twins 😊 you married yeah?

[ZoeAdams2]

Not twins. I was married, now widowed thanks to a drunk driver.

[Nahid1707]

Oh I’m sorry

[Nahid1707]

Have a nice day

I see nothing wrong if a guy does squats or but bridges. Is always nice to see a guy with a nice butt instead of a guy with an aspirin butt. Anyway, if you want to look toned and build good legs along with a nice butt, you can always run or play soccer, squats help but it takes a while for you to see the difference having in account that we are all different and our bodies react differently too.

[Nahid1707]

Yeah I agree
I need a good butt 😂🤦‍♂️

[GB2000]

I try and do squats but I’m so lazy at times 😫 I started doing them a couple of years back and they really made a difference to my thighs and bum. If the bridge is where you lift your bum off the ground then I’ve done that too. I’ve tried different techniques after searching for various ones on YouTube

[Fitness-Fanatic]

I do squats as part of my daily exercise routine. Squats are great for the butt and thighs. I find squats much more effective than butt bridges

[ZoeAdams2]

Do you use free weights or a Smith machine for squats?

[Fitness-Fanatic]

@ZoeAdams2

Both. At the gym, machine. At home, free

[ZoeAdams2]

Do you tend to go heavier on the machine? I found I can do up to 140 pounds on the machine, but maybe 85 on the free weights. On the latter I have to concentrate more on balance.

[Fitness-Fanatic]

@ZoeAdams2

I tend not to go too heavy. It causes the thighs to look too bulky. I prefer my thighs to be toned and shapely rather than bulky

[Fitness-Fanatic]

But like you, I can go heavier in the machine

[Fitness-Fanatic]

On*.

[floatingme]

I've done squats more than butt bridges. so a point for squats from me

[txdiie_]

I do, but people always find it funny because I have a naturally big and shaped butt :/

[scorchedwater]

butt bridges work better.

[Nahid1707]

You do them at home or gym? I’m trying to work on myself

[bubblybex]

I've never done the bridge thing lol

[Nahid1707]

I only heard of it recently haha

[Hannah591]

Yeah sometimes at home.

[Kayla45]

I don't do either one.

[BrownBratzDoll]

Neither waiting to afford my plastic surgery

[PinkChampagne]

Both do

[Justcallmealy]

Yeah, yeah

[madison19]

No I don't
