Lost my bum!!!

I’ve lost 4.5st since June going from a size 16 to an 8. I’m so happy overall but my bum has completely disappeared. It’s flat but not only that, the excess skin now sags down, it just hangs below the bottom of my bum. If I really start focussing on building muscles in my glutes will that help?

Me too. Im calling it my old lady flat arse. Loving the weightloss, missing the arsenal (which was nicely rounded before I got fat).

Squats with weights saved my bum! It usually goes really flat with just dieting but squats have made it round.

Hip thrusts, Bulgarian split squats and RDLs
3x week
lots of protein after working out
no need to stay in the gym for yonks doing all sorts of nonsense- these 3 exercises (along with 1-2 upper body things for balance) are your friends. Keep at it for a year and you will have an arse.
