I know this is a weird question. But I'm just wondering. Please don't kill me.

I do body weight exercises. And finding it harder to do exercises that want me to lay down on my front side. ^Because,^ ^my^ ^____^ ^is^ ^squishing^.^๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ^

Also, there is a stupid stigma that exercise makes women more masculine. But are there any workouts that make a man look feminine? Like, it would be bit weird to see a BLL sized butt on a man, right?


This question came to my mind when I saw a workout plan in my app. The plans' name is "Bikini Body". I was like, "I should probably stay away from this. But what happens if I did it anyway?"

I definitely got some looks when I did that one exercise all the ladies do, the one where you lay under the Smith machine on a block with your upper back, rest the barbell across your hips, and hump the air. They do it because it creates a big booty. I was doing it because strong glutes can help with posture and back pain.

Muscular butts also look good on everyone. I don't understand why more dudes aren't doing them.

You get a pretty solid booty doing squats and deadlifts.

It's good to have options though. I messed up my foot pretty bad and while I can jog a few times a week, deadlifts or squats are right out.

Ah, that's too bad. Those are like the King & Queen of exercises. It's a good thing you do have other options though.
