The Diet For Flat Stomach And Big Bum
Before we even talk about exercises, nothing will happen if your diet is bad.
You can never out train a bad diet, even if you have the best personal trainer money could buy. If you want to get a flat stomach and big bum, shift more towards to “High Protein” diet.
Why?
A high protein diet is best for growing your glutes while losing fat. When you’re trying to grow your glutes, you need to make sure you’re consuming enough protein to support booty growth.
Additionally, a high protein diet can help you feel full and satisfied, which can prevent overeating and promote fat loss around your waistline.
Plus eating a high protein diet can also boost your metabolism(1), helping you burn more calories throughout the day.
So, if you want to grow your glutes while losing fat, make sure you’re consuming enough protein every day.
Go for lean proteins like eggs, tuna, chicken or plant-based protein sources like lentils, chickpeas, tofu, and quinoa can all be great options.
If you’re overweight, use this meal plan to help you lose excess body fat.
If you find it hard to gain weight in the right places such as your glutes, use this weight gain plan.
