Muscles within the buttock region are primarily the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, gluteus minimus and various other more secondary muscles. The short answer is your gluteus maximus aka glut max. as this is the big, superficial muscle that covers most of your butt.

What is your butt made of?

Fat tissue, muscle, and skin. Not in that order.


Is there any way a girl can get her butt bigger?

Sure you can, there's a few different ways. Fat: You can get fat from what you eat but you will get fat everywhere unless you research witch foods will specifically add fat to your breasts and well as butt. Muscle: Looks really good to see a girl with a butt of muscle. The butt muscle is called the "glute" one for each butt obviously. Do things like squats to get a lot of muscle on your butt. You now your butt got bigger when it feels sore... Because you hurt your butt by working out and your body will make it bigger so next time you won't get hurt, there for you must work out harder each time your butt gets sore. Overall, I'd say a little bit of fat on a butt looks okay, but it's not long before too much fat and your butt (and boobs, belly, etc) get wrinkly, which is gross. So, a little fat is nice, but mostly muscle, and do sit ups if you want to flatten your stomach so your butt would stick out better.


Is butt muscle a better cushion than butt fat?

no. because fat is usually softer than your muscles even though your muscles are often soft


Will sit-ups make your butt bigger or smaller?

neither. it strengthens the muscles in your butt. which could mean a smaller butt for fatter people since building muscle lowers fat cells' sizes, and could mean a bigger butt for skinner body types because there is no fat, and the muscle is building.


Does a butt weigh more than breasts?

Oh, dude, like technically speaking, the weight of a butt and breasts can vary depending on individual factors like size and composition. But generally, breasts are made up of fatty tissue while the butt contains muscle, so pound for pound, muscle weighs more than fat. So, yeah, in some cases, a butt could weigh more than breasts.


How can you tell if your butt is fat or muscle?

It is going to be fat on top of muscle, on top of pelvis. To find out how thick the fat is, just grab a handful of skin and the fat will be attached to it. To feel the muscle below the skin & fat, just flex the muscles of your bum and you'll feel the muscles contract (imagine someone's about to give you a wedgie and you reflexively contract your whole bum - that's the flex I'm takling about).


Is your butt just made of fat?

The buttocks are primarily made up of fat, but also consist of muscles like the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus. These muscles help with movement and stability in the hips and lower back.


Why do some butt exercises make your butt smaller rather than big?

Because of the size of that exact muscle! You see, gluteus maximus or rear end muscles are the biggest ones in your body, and the bigger the muscle, the larger calorie burn (or fat-burn). Yes, it says calories! Calories=ass fat!


If you run to lose weight will you lose your butt?

Does shaken your butt make it fat?

Shaking your butt doesn't make it fatter, in fact it's mild exercise. What shaking your butt does do though, is wobble the fat on your butt. Because I have quite a lot of fat on my buttocks, my butt will wobble a lot more when I shake it than someone with less butt fat.
