Lose fat, leg muscle, build butt

[justinkramp98]

Hey all,

This is on behalf of my girlfriend.
5’3” , 120 lbs

She wants to keep losing weight aka fat and leg muscle by caloric deficit and cardio which has seen great results for her so far.

Reason why she wants to lose leg mass is because she naturally has larger legs with lots of muscle and she does not find it attractive and wants to get rid of it. It’s working.

Now the difficult part. She wants to build her butt. Genetically she says she doesn’t have a large butt and rather a small to nonexistent one. And of course genetics play a large role in that.

What would you think is her best plan of attack?
1.lose fat
2.lose leg muscle to really slim them down
3. Build her butt muscles

I suggest she do the following:

1. Make her own account and do her own research. If she doesn't want it bad enough to do the ground work herself, she doesn't want it bad enough.
2. Get a realistic idea of what 13% bodyfat looks like for a FEMALE because it isn't the same thing as for a MALE and she absolutely is not under 13% at those stats.
3. Lose fat while doing everything she can to build/maintain both butt and leg muscles because I seriously doubt that she has too much leg muscle to look balanced at a good body composition if she hasn't been a seriously competitive athlete for her entire life.

I appreciate it, thanks!

Why would anyone ever want to lose muscle? This doesn't seem like a great idea.
