Will weighted squats make my butt bigger?

[Anonymous]

I stared to do weighted squats 3 months ago...

The effect that weighted squats will have on you depends entirely on a number of factors. Firstly, the body cannot add size to anything unless you're in a calorie surplus. Muscle follows the same rule as fat in that you can't gain anything unless you're in a surplus and you can't lose anything unless you're in a deficit. If you want to make it grow you have to work out using a weight that will allow you to hit failure (the point at which your muscles are on the verge of giving out so you can't safely attempt another rep) in 8-12 reps while observing long rest periods in between workouts (such as 2 rest days in between workouts, for instance). If you want to make it shrink, shorter rest periods (only one day of rest in between workouts) and eating at a deficit. Also, you CAN switch to higher reps/lower weight if the goal is reduction, but there's really no benefit to it in terms of aesthetics. Functionally you focus more on endurance than strength, though.

Yes , but you're not gonna see much of anything in 3 months.
Try...1 year... and then 5 years... and then 10.
1 years and you're gonna max out on your beginner gainz and you'll be in the long haul.

I already see a lot of change I squat with 120lbs and I weight 132lbs but I actually didn't want my butt bigger soo...

[Illusive_Man]

No wait... so you... don't want it to be any bigger... but you're doing weighted sets?
How many reps you doing?

[Asker]

Yes! I do 7 reps..

[Asker]

And about 5 sets

[Illusive_Man]

Drop the weights down till you can comfortably do 30 reps and 4 sets per exercise and 4 different exercises that focus on different part the lower body on leg/glutes day is my suggestion.

I don't know why are you focusing specifically on the glutes but there you go.

It will tone your butt a bit, however it will tone your upper legs more. In my opinion one of the best but exercises is Hip-Lift Progression. Look it up one youtube.

These are some more great but exercises: www.fitnessmagazine.com/.../

Yessss this is the best way, weight training will change you

[CincinnatiRedsfan]

It will increase your muscle but that will barely make your but bigger. A big butt (similar to the one in my photo) is a FAT butt. Squats will NOT make your butt fatter, which means you will not really get a bigger butt. I don't know why people think squats will give you a butt like Iggy Azalea or Kim Kardashian (which are fake anyway.)

It wouldn't like increase a lot in size what will happen is that it will get toned and muscular and sexy.
