Getting a sexy, toned, and fit booty (or butt to be exact) is a very common desire amongst woman these days.   Some say it’s a basic primal desire and a tightly sculpted, round booty is a feature that resembles a “healthy breeder” on a subconscious level for men, hence, making a man subconsciously and irresistibly attracted to you.    No matter the reason, butt’s are hot!  Let’s admit it, but it’s a challenging thing for EVERY woman to get because we all have inherent metabolic difference and some of us were gifted with better jeans.   What I mean is, some of us already have a butt and other we born with a more flat butt and need to “grow” a butt.

Sculpting a sexy booty is possible for everyone and no doubt you have thought about OR you may have already tried a few glute sculpting exercises to get started.

But what if you’re doing the “wrong” exercise? Hmm, is there such a thing? Well, if you have a specific part of the body you want to enhance, improve or make bigger, you should really consider what type of exercise you will be doing and commit to, to be able to achieve that goal.

Not all exercises or workouts create the exact same sculpting results for every type of body.

Shake Your Booty, Can You?

Having a plump, bigger and sexier booty is something that a lot of women desire and why not? It makes you feel and look sexy, gives you more confidence in wearing that little black dress on your date night. And if you are a pole dancer you might want it to help you walk more sexy in pole routines. But more important than these are the effects of having your glutes working to its full potential. You see, glutes are the muscles of your butt and these muscles are the ones you will need for your body to be able to stay upright and the ones that power through your workouts. Having  strong glutes is very important as you do your daily physical activities such as standing, walking, running, and doing other important body sculpting exercises.

So, how can you achieve that dream butt of yours?

Are one of the many women who are already doing their regular exercises through fitness classes or even gym membership but are not getting the results you expect?

There is a reason why and let me explain it.

Cortisol is often called the “stress hormone” because of its connection to the stress response, however, cortisol is much more than just a hormone released during stress. Understanding cortisol and its affect on the body will help you balance your hormones and achieve good health.

Cortisol is one of the steroid hormones and is made in the adrenal glands.

What does cortisol do?

Because most bodily cells have cortisol receptors, it affects many different functions in the body. Cortisol can help control blood sugar levels, regulate metabolism, help reduce inflammation, and assist with memory formulation. It has a controlling effect on salt and water balance and helps control blood pressure. In women, cortisol also supports the developing fetus during pregnancy. All of these functions make cortisol a crucial hormone to protect overall health and well-being, all good until you hear that high cortisol levels will not be good for you especially for your dream butt.

Cortisol kills a woman’s curves by breaking down lean muscle tissue while promoting fat storage in the hips, butt, belly and thighs.

According to studies, one of the main culprits that causes high cortisol levels are none other than- traditional lengthy, cardio sessions!  With elevated Cortisol it will be extremely difficult to burn fat and maintain your curves in all the right places. So if you’re one of the women who want to sculpt and keep those sexy curves, sorry to burst your bubble but traditional lengthy and over-strenuous cardio sessions are not for you.

Another exercise pitfalls on our list are weighted squat and leg press, these exercises aside from an increased risk of injury (especially if you’re doing it on your own and are not being assisted by a professional or a fitness coach) it usually results to bigger legs and thickening of thighs so it’s not going to help you with your butt goals.   Thicker thighs that are not proportionate to your glute size just looks……. well, let’s just say not the most pleasing look.

How about those generic fitness class that is in the trend for quite some time now? Well it’s good if you want to gain lots of friends while getting fit and also gives you a generic fitness benefits, but not so much more after that, especially if you have that specific part of your body you are targeting to enhance.

These exercises are what we call the “curves killer” yes you heard it right, there is such a thing. But the good news is it’s not too late, after reading about these facts you can now re-direct your effort towards the right direction in achieving that sexy Yoga booty you are dreaming of!
