Glute Builder - Women

Want bigger glutes — without growing your legs? This program offers targeted glute growth, while keeping other areas in maintenance mode

Written by Gina

WHAT IS THIS PROGRAM?

For women who want to prioritise glute growth without adding size to their quads. This program is lower volume on upper body days and very low volume for other lower body muscles outside of the glutes. Designed for women who only want glute growth (If your goal is balanced muscle growth across all major areas, BUILD may be a better fit).

Most training programs build your whole lower body together. If your goal is glute growth without adding size to your legs — you need a different approach.

The Glute Builder program is designed to help you develop stronger, fuller glutes, without building your quads.

The focus is on movements and programming designed to maximise glute activation and growth.
