I was scrolling through reddit when i stumbled upon this random thread: 9 months glute transformation. I read the entire thing, looked at the pictures, the comments... OP responded to a lot of people which was helpful too, but what i could gather from what she wrote is that we basically did the same amount of research in the same places haha. She is also the same height and weight as me which is helpful too. Her leg gains are insane. I also rarely feel exercises in my butt anymore (unless i work-out at home) so it was good to see that she made it work for her somehow.
Also, this is her current routine: glutes/legs/glutes/upper body/glutes/full body. I don't know what she does differently on leg day vs glute day, since most leg exercises target the glutes too, but it is nice to see her routine to have a certain sense of what to work towards.
What i also found funny is that she said she only tracks her protein, because i do the exact same LOL. I do also track my calories, because that is an old habit instilled in me, but besides that i only track protein. I don't care about other stats.
I found another thread with a girl who has the same stats as me. She also has weights for at home, cause as she said, she sometimes doesn't have enough time for the gym, or she feels shy/what have you. It's nice to know that i am not the only one who feels this way, and this only makes me more confident in getting a barbell for at home. She said that she mainly "deadlifts, barbell bridges, dumbbell kneeling squats, barbell military press" at home, since she doesn't have a rack. She said her current routine is "glute focused workouts 3 days a week" with a 20 minute warmup (like me!), one day a week of cardio, and upper body push/pull on other days.
I never knew this sub reddit existed, but it is nice to read what other girls (my height/weight) have been doing and people are giving good advice in the comments. It is way better than the stupid bodybuilding forums and fitness subreddits, where everyone (read: men) just seem to be gloating about how much they can lift, and the overall vibe is just off. Everyone seems so friendly here! I wish the subreddit was more active tho...
