... Read moreFrom personal experience, transitioning from square to round glutes requires a consistent and targeted workout approach. Initially, focusing on compound exercises like squats and lunges helps activate the major glute muscles. However, to specifically shape the glutes for that rounder appearance, I found that incorporating isolated exercises such as hip thrusts, glute bridges, and cable kickbacks made a significant difference. It's important to emphasize proper form to maximize muscle engagement and avoid injury. Additionally, progressive overload, by gradually increasing weights or resistance, promotes muscle growth effectively. Nutrition also played a vital role in my transformation; ensuring adequate protein intake supported muscle repair and growth. Alongside workouts, I practiced mind-muscle connection techniques, deliberately focusing on squeezing the glutes during each exercise. This heightened awareness contributed to better activation and development. Finally, rest and recovery are crucial. Muscles grow when allowed time to recover, so scheduling rest days and incorporating mobility exercises helped maintain flexibility and reduce soreness. By combining consistent targeted workouts, nutrition, and recovery, achieving rounder, stronger glutes is entirely achievable.

GLUTES SQUARE, NOT ROUND?YOU’LL WANT TO SAVE THIS✨
Weird fun fact: Most women don’t actually struggle with glute growth, they struggle with glute TARGETING. If you keep training the wrong areas, your glutes grow in the wrong places (aka square instead of round) And I say this from personal experience, as i naturally have square shaped glutes

I Feel Like Square Nails Are Aging Me 😬
Do square nails actually make us look older or am I overthinking this. Every time I get square tips I feel chic for one day and then suddenly I feel like I added five years…. Just the mature vibe…. Almond and round feel softer and younger somehow. Square feels sharp and very adult energy
