I know what you're looking at..................MY BOOOTTTTAYYYYYYY!
Apparently it's the latest fashion craze
Apparently a big butt is beautiful
Apparently every girl wants a big booty and a small waist...
In FACT not everyone wants this, but the majority now do. Fashion followers and trend setters are bursting with booty workouts, booty enhancing clothes and if you're that serious, get yourself on the operating table for some butt fillers or wear a waist trainer 24 hours a day! .... (not a personal recommendation)
FAKE BOOTY ALERT!
CURVES ARE DELICIOUS
The best thing about this trend is that in fact it's making woman feel empowered to show off their womanly curves and embrace them. Since forever, we have been told to love ourselves and until then noone will love us. Well thank you JLO, Beyonce and whoever else is flaunting them curves. Now it's 2017 so yes, some women have taken this to the extreme. But if your looking for a nice round bumper and a little waist, just focus on them booty workouts and work on eating a clean diet.
I have always had this shape, but i never really noticed until i started getting compliments and male attention attracted to my extra large planet situated on my body. *FUNNY STORY* When people used to ask how i got my butt so big, i used to tell them i ate galaxy! Now yes, it's true i'm addicted to chocolate and i could blame the extra fat on chocolate, but no my big bum was not created by galaxy. My nickname to some is now Galaxy ;). However, this was when i was a lot bigger, now that i have lost weight my big bum is still there, but it's a lot more toned. This trend has definitely helped me to appreciate my curves. When i was younger everyone wanted to be a size 6 and look like a victoria secret model. Dont get me wrong, these women are beautiful, but realistically we are all not built to look to like that. The latest trend is actually helping women become more comfortable with their bodies, and it's amazing.
I wanted to write this blog to let you all know that it's OK to have a big bum and in fact in medical research, if a woman carries her weight around the butt and thigh area then she is in fact medically healthier than someone who carries weight around the stomach area. So on that note i just want to share with you some of my inspirations:
 |
| Beyonce |
 |
| Leona Lewis |
 |
| Tamra Dae |
 |
| Jlo |
What absolute beauties! Tamra Dae is my fitness inspiration and if you're not following her on Instagram then do that right now! These huge celebs such as Jlo and Beyonce are so god damn beautiful. Now, if you have read about them, what they eat etc then you will know that having a personal trainer and a cook to make sure they stay on track is normal to them. However, we don't all have that luxury. But throughout my weightloss journey i have realised that with a clean diet and at least 2-3 leg and butt workouts a week, its achievable to build the booty you want and create the body you deserve. This is hard work, there's no doubt about it and even though these celebs might look like they have it easy, i can assure you that their trainers and chefs don't workout or eat for them, they still have to do the work!
Now, dont get me wrong i am not as slender and toned as these women above, but i am well on way to achieving that and i will not ever give up on pushing myself to achieve the body i desire. So i want to share with you a typical leg day of my own. I have been given advice from fellow gym goers, personal trainers and also seen so many videos and tips on instagram and other social media platforms. Knowledge is power, and i intend to use it to my advantage.
LEG DAY FOR BELLA
Warm up on stairmaster: 10 Minutes/level 10 (skip a step if you can)
Warm up with squat Bar 1 set of 15
3-5 sets of 15 frog squats with light weight or 5 sets of heavy weight normal squats
Hamstring extensions - 3 sets of 10 single legs then 3 sets of 10 increasing weight everytime - superset this with goblet squats (Heavy Dumbell)
Leg Press - wide leg 3 sets of drop sets
Leg curl - 3 sets of 12 increasing weight
Walking Lunges with Weight - 3 sets of 2 laps
Donkey kicks with weighted cable - 3 sets of 12 on each leg
This is a rough workout i would do on a typical leg day, however i would switch this up and use different machines and exercises to target different muscles. Weights vary and i try to push myself as the heavier the weight, the more muscle i will build. However i am careful with this due to my back injury. I am currently building up my core for more stability.What i would say is this, get some professional help at the gym if you don't know how to use the machines or how to do an exercise correctly. I learnt the hard way and injured myself with incorrect form, so be careful and seek professional advice if you're unsure. Also, don't be put off if your butt and legs hurt for a few days after, IT MEANS IT'S WORKING. Just stretch it out and get back on it.
I recently started doing a squat challenge which has definitely toned my butt up a treat. With light weight (30kg) i will squat for as long as i can. When i first did this i managed just over a minute. My recent personal best is over 5 minutes. Here are my last 2 times:
Setting mini challenges for myself really motivates and pushes me further than i would normally go. Everyone trains different and wants to achieve different results. Naturally i have a smaller waist and a larger butt, but if i continue losing weight and miss out the leg and booty workouts, then it's SEE YOU LATER BOOTY for me.
If you read my blog before this, you will know about my diet and this is also important to achieving the body you desire. Around the waist and stomach area, it's even more more important to get your diet right. I must admit this is the hardest part, but again with persistence, consistency and patience, it's achievable.
Here are some links to good booty workouts you can do at home:
That's it for now on the Booty Trend
Ciao for now,
Bella
