How to get a bigger bum?!

[Sweetdisposition91]

Hi all, I’ve been training at the gym for about 6 months now, I do classes and use free weights and machines - can squat 40kg and leg press 90kg for 10 reps for instance, I’m getting stronger but my bum just isn’t getting bigger which is my main aim!

Please advise me a routine or plan that I can do in order to actually make it bigger please?!

Implants? Get fat? Don't think you can change shape like that tbh

You can have some of mine OP! I’ve got enough for two

Do you do different types of squats?

How do you want it bigger? Do you mean more rounded?

Squats and gluten bridges are the two I've most often seen recommended.

Running up and down hills (faster/steeper the better), running up and down stairs and just always taking the stairs might all help a bit too.

Donkey kicks. use ankle weights if you have some.

Hip thrusts, lower reps and higher weights. Bret contras on Instagram has lots of advice

Tempo squats, count 4 seconds down, and 4 seconds back up.
Banded crab walks, put a resistance band round your legs, and step sideways, steadily, don't rush them. By 10 you should feel in in your glutes, by 20 they should be burning!
Deadlifts and Romanian Deadlifts (RDLs), really powering thru your butt for the lockout at the top.
Anything you do, you'll need proper form, and progressive overload.

Eat in a surplus and lift heavy.
Include hip thrusts, lunges and deadlifts into your workout.
