chicks dig a tight ass

[dj ben2]

ive recently asked a feww older women i know what they think about muscley guys and here i was thinking theyd say a big chest or something but quite a few agreed that they like a guy with a firm muscley butt .... WTF but anyway what exercizes or weights make ur butt tight cos i know mines pretty chubby

 

[HoneyHitter]

Squats.

It's not very smart to focus your workouts on just one body part for too long. Inbalanced workouts can have damaging side-effects. Go for a wellrounded workout-schedule.

 

[HoneyHitter]

I think that walking around with the right posture outweighs having a "tight ass". I have experienced that a good physique wil extend your "range of presence". It's like extending your magnetic field. (playing with magnets is fun )

Advantage: women will notice you sooner, increasing chances of spotting HBs.

Disadvantage: gays and ugly women will also start "clouding around" more often.

Deadlifts work well for your goals. Squats are ok but I find they don't work my ass as much.

 

[Skilla_Staz]

Squats, deadlifts, glute/ham raises...

Sprints...

Also if your butt is "chubby" you may need to lose some weight. All the muscle in the world won't feel firm if covered with fat.

Let me say respectively that if you feel that way then you are doing something wrong.

pointless comment, how about having good posture AND firm glutes.

- FALSE

complete idiocy..deadlifts should work more back and slight glutes..FULL squats (sumo stance) going as low as possible require full use of glutes.

Let me say respectively that if you feel that way then you are doing something wrong.

- FACT

you DO NOT NEED TO DEAD LIFT FOR GLUTES, you should dead lift for a strong lower back. - FACT

for glutes learn how to properly do lunges, squat and leg press. - FACT

If you're not feeling even conventional deadlifts or narrow stance squats in the entire posterior chain (lower back, hamstrings, glutes) then you're lifting girl's weights. Fact.

 

[donjuanjovi]

Deadlifts, SLDL's, Squats, goodmornings all work the posterior chain.

Unless you're willing to dedicate yourself to a decent diet and a solid exercise routine, you're wasting our/your time.

 

[dj ben2]

for those of you who dont get me im talking aobut the kind of guy in dirtydancing (patrick swayze or sumthing)

This should explain it. It's an extract taken from The Definitive Book of Body Language by Barbara & Allan Pease. Good read for the aspiring DJ:

A small, compact bum is the favourite of women everywhere but few understand it's magnetic attraction. The secret is that a tight, muscular rear is necessary to make the strong forward thrusting motion needed for successful sperm transfer during sex. A man with a fat ot flabby derriere has difficulty with this forward movement and has a tendency to throw his entire body weight into the thrust. For women, this isn't ideal, as the man's weight can be uncomfortable on her and make it difficult to breathe. By contrast, the small, tight rear promises a greater chance of doing an effective job.

LOL nice..... just another piece of evidence as why theyre species are wired so different to our species.... that idea would never have even crossed my mind

I squat 400lbs, it's not possible to do that much weight without proper form, so yes I am doing them properly. I admit I don't quite go ass to grass, but its well past 90º. I deadlift approx. 240 right now with very good form(i watched videos and there's a mirror in the gym), I can't be exact because I took last weeks' back workout off due to a tennis conditioning course the same day.

Also, I sincerely doubt that 400lbs is "girl's weights", even to true bodybuilders.

Now that I've defended my position, I'll again say that I feel Deadlifts do more for my gluteus maximus than Squats.

When I do squats on wednesday, naturally I'm completely drained afterwards and don't get DOMS till thursday. I feel it throughout quads, outside-front mostly.

When I do deads on friday, again I'm completely drained afterwards and don't get DOMS till saturday. I feel it dominantly in my lower back, as I should. But I also feel it on the back of my quads(hammies?), and in my ass. The technique I was taught was to keep your legs straight(not locked) and flex your ass and hamstrings and abs, while lifting.

On saturday, I can barely sit because my ass hurts. That's usually a good indicator of what muscle you worked. Therefore, I say that Deadlifts do more for my ass than Squats. Nuff said.

How about we discuss this abit before calling eachother idiots?

EDIT: Oh sorry, I forgot to include the bar. squat is 437, not 400.

 

[Throttle]

well, technically he called your comment idiocy, not you an idiot.

muscle fatigue is not an indicator of what muscle an exercise works most.

the reason your arse hurts on saturday is because you're doing squats & deads too close together. your glutes haven't recovered fully from wed and you're smashing them again (somewhat less directly) on friday. leave at least 2 days rest betwen them and you'll have more productive workouts and less DOMS

as an aside, you're describing something closer to a stiff-legged deadlift than what most guys here mean by a deadlift.

 

[Warboss Alex]

Quiksilver,

You say you don't go ass to grass and that's just it. The glutes are involved hugely in proper ass-to-floor squats regardless of your stance (although wider stances will hit it more, obviously) especially on the lower part of the lift, where they initiate the 'take off'.

~440 is a decent lift but doesn't mean a whole lot if you're not going down as low as you can, as even an inch makes a massive amount of difference in the weight you can lift. Sorry bro, it's just my opinion on squatting. Squat all the way down or don't squat at all.

 

[donjuanjovi]

Dude you can squat 440, but only pull 240? Something is wrong!

Warboss, are you not concerned about the pressures on the knee that going as low as bum to calf will allow?

dj ben, you can get butt implants to make you prosterior look firm and tight just like swayze's!

 

[Warboss Alex]

Warboss, are you not concerned about the pressures on the knee that going as low as bum to calf will allow?

if you do your research you'll find that the knee is placed under no pressure going down ass-to-grass as the weight is transferred onto the hips, hamstrings and glutes (what the whole damn thread is about). conversely when you stop at ANY point before a true ass-to-grass squat the knees are used as brakes to 'stop' the weight (as the natural mechanics of your body are harmonious to ass to grass squatting and NOT quarter squats, parallel squats or somewhat below parallel squats, only full ass to floor squats) and thus incur all the dangerous pressure.

case in point, my own knee problems are from squatting to parallel instead of ass to grass early in my training career.

 

[Skilla_Staz]

I think stopping at parellel hurts my knees more than ATG. Something about stopping the movement halfway just screams "ouch" to me. Plus, with my tendinitis, after that initial first rep of ATG, i feel loose and very little pain. When I stop at ||, then I hurt...

BAD.
