As a gay man, there are very few things that get me going as much as a fine, meaty rump...high, round, perky and thick are all wonderful adjectives I like to attach to anyone who has worked/werq'd hard to achieve junk in the trunk.Here's an exercise to help welcome yourself to the honorary fellowship of buxom, bodacious bottoms.
(Hehe!)
The single-leg step-up is a great muscle booster for the hamstrings and glutes, and when these two muscles work together, a lovely lower-shelving action arises. The key is to make sure you're using a platform that will raise your leg's starting position to a 90 degree angle, such that your knee is in line with your hip...a bench or set of boxes as high as a park bench usually does the trick.
Placing the whole of one foot on the bench, transfer the weight of your body into that heel and push up so that your whole body lifts and your other foot comes off the floor. Focus on only using the 'lead' leg, using the other should balancing be required. As you are standing into the highest position, squeeze your glutes and push your hips slightly forward, breathing out as you do.
Just as important as your ascent onto the bench, is your descent into the starting position. As with so many other exercises, there is equal work to be performed during the eccentric phase of motion - therefore, slowly come back down and concentrate, again, on your 'lead' leg doing all the work.
For added muscle tear, place a weighted bar bell atop your shoulders or use dumb bells...and feel the burn.
