This move can be performed with or without a loop band. Always be sure to keep your hips level and feet forward. Try to avoid bouncing with each step. Instead, take your time and slowly step side to side. 7. Clamshells Press into your heels, brace your core, and push your pelvis upward by squeezing your glutes. Ensure your chest does not lift during this movement. To answer this question, they developed their own system to evaluate the aesthetics of the gluteal region that involved mapping particular landmarks and determining the ratio that was considered to be most aesthetically pleasing based on a (subjective) analysis of 1,320 photographs of naked women’s butts. (I’m sure some guys wouldn’t mind being a part of that research team!) As you step onto your side, move your right leg over to return to your original position. Continue this for 8–10 steps. Stand with your feet slightly wider than hip-width apart. Your toes should be slightly pointed out, and your hands should be on your hips or in front of you.

Since this move is more advanced, it’s best to practice without a barbell until you can accurately perform this movement. If you’re new to this type of exercise, you can practice this movement with glute bridges. 3. Frog pumpsWhat is considered beautiful today might well be out of style in a decade’s time. Just look at the ‘big butt’ trend that was popular around 2015, which has lost a bit of steam. Then there is the age-old theory of waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). If you haven’t heard of this one before, it is widely agreed that a waist-to-hip ratio of 0.7 in women is generally found to be the most attractive by men [2]. Been curious but afraid to ask? To answer the question “What is the Ideal Butt”, I have decided to turn to science – it may surprise you to learn this, but there is scientific research out there on this topic! I wonder if the scientists just wanted to stare at a number of butts all day…“For science!” (of course). My Take on What the Ideal Butt is Fitness Volt is committed to providing our readers with science-based information.

In this post I’ll talk about an ideal butt being one that looks good and is attractive, but keep in mind that there are other ways a butt can be ideal (some examples: ideal for maximum comfort when sitting – you might want an extra-padded kind of butt for this!, or ideal for providing maximum sprint power and speed – for athletes).

Start by lying on your right side with your knees bent at a 90-degree angle, your right elbow bent, and your head resting on your right hand. Keep your spine in a neutral position and your shoulders, hips, and ankles in a straight line. The Britain's Got Talent judge and Good Morning Britain presenter, both 49, have been found to have the perfect "Golden Ratio" bums by Dr Riccardo Frati who analysed the bottoms of leading celebrities.I sighted myself up roughly in the mirror this morning and found that I have a ratio of about 1.5:1. In my opinion, the concept of ‘desirable’ is too subjective to be able to make a judgement call on. I think it really depends on the individual who is doing the judgement, because everyone is different. I would suggest the the most important person who you would want to consider you desirable would be you – I think having a positive relationship with yourself and your body is super valuable as it affects your confidence too (which is usually quite attractive to others).

How do you shape up using this method? What’s the best feature of your butt that you love? References: D) is the front-most part of your pelvis or ‘hip bone’. Feel around for this bony landmark where you would place your hands if you were to put them on your hips.
