well, I suppose running is a sort of exercise that will 'get you into shape' remember you must also have a healthy diet as well, no point in running and still eating junk food in a regular basis.

Oh gosh, i hope so!!! I am also of the โ€œno bumโ€ variety and im praying that for the first time ever i might gain some buttocks ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

My friend passed me in her car the other day when i was out for a run and my first question was, โ€œdid my bum look good from behind?โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I live in hope! Im a week behind you (pardon the pun) so keep me updated ๐Ÿ˜ x

Amazing!!! Itโ€™s great you have the self-awareness to notice how your body is adapting to running :) yay for butts! Arenโ€™t they great!!! From the research Iโ€™ve done it sounds like youโ€™re doing it just right, as a nice hip extension means more glute power is being recruited- and you get more butt! Awesome! ๐Ÿ‘

thanks for that. It is always the butt that aches after the runs and I did wonder why that was. Good to know I'm doing something right๐Ÿ‘

:) Iโ€™ve not noticed my butt looking any different yet but(t) I have the impression my glutes feel firmer and stronger ๐Ÿ’ช
