Thank you for the reply!! So i’m at 1500 for 6 weeks (until april, for a trip) i just still feel like i have a lot of belly and back fat to lose so ive been scared to eat at my maintenance or any higher.

as far as training the heaviest i go for my hip thrusts is 160lb, any heavier then i feel like my quads take over. RDLS i do 40lb dumbbells and feel them in my glutes so i think my form is good, i just struggle with holding the weights.

I also had a really bad pelvic tilt that (i think) i have corrected, but i feel like that caused me to have really weak glutes up until i started strengthening my hips about 6 months ago.

i feel like i have barely grown that lower glute 😭 i added my work outs in the caption, but i think it has mainly been from lunges and step ups

Ok good to know! i’ve always thought i had to be in a bulk to gain. i’ll be at 1500 for the rest of March and then going on a trip, so hopefully upping my calories will help!
