SQUATS don't make buttocks big.

Illiterate gym bros mislead women that if they focus on squats, they will have curvy hips & bootylicious bums.

They also misinform men that if they do squats, their buttocks will be feminine.

Dismiss these lies.

Thread...

#BetterTogether
The muscles of the buttocks are known as GLUTEAL MUSCLES.

The gluteal muscles are in a grouping of three muscles:

- Gluteus maximus

- Gluteus medius

- Gluteus minimus

#BetterTogether
The gluteus maximus is the most superficial as well as largest of the three muscles and makes up most of the shape and form of the buttock and hip area.

It is large and powerful because it has the job of keeping the trunk of the body in an erect posture.

#BetterTogether
It is the chief antigravity muscle that helps in:

- Standing up from sitting,

- Straightening from a bending position,

- Walking upstairs or on a hill,

- Walking and Running.

#BetterTogether
The Gluteus Maximus supports the pelvis & trunk,

- important when a person is standing on one leg.

If you cannot stand upright after sitting,

- or you have backache during standing after bending/sitting,

then you have weak gluteal muscles.

#BetterTogether
Also, if you easily lose balance when you try to stand on one leg, then your gluteal muscles are weak.

A person with strong gluteal muscles can stand on one leg without easily falling over.

#BetterTogether
Therefore, if you have weak gluteus muscles, you need to prioritize squats in these variations:

- Body weight squats

- Goblet squats

- Barbel squats

- Jefferson squats

#BetterTogether
You can also incorporate:

- Stiff Leg Deadlift

- One-legged deadlift with dumbbells

- Walking lunges

- Bulgarian split squats

These will also strengthen your gluteal muscles.

#BetterTogether
Big buttocks are a sheath of fats stored in the gluteal area layering the gluteal muscles.

Big buttocks in men are a result of too much oestrogen in the body due to what is known as AROMATIZATION which is the conversion of Testosterone to oestrogen.

#BetterTogether
Oestrogen is a fat-accumulation hormone. It prioritizes the accumulation of fats in the hips, buttocks and chest.

Women have curvy hips, breasts and big buttocks because of oestrogen.

Somali men,

The reason I am talking to you is because you are the leader of your family.

The collective health of your family is in your hands.

Here is what you need to do to fix your health and your family's health.

6 things hospitals will not tell you: Image
1. EAT ONE MEAL A DAY:

You will not die.

Your forefathers spent time in the scorching sun, herding camels & goats. Therefore, they would eat once or the next day.

You are not different.

Your body was not designed to eat more than 2 meals a day.

Gluttony is a sin!

#ManDay Image
2. FASTING

The majority of you are Muslims. Therefore, you understand fasting.

Fasting is not just for religious observance but also for metabolic nourishment.

Then, when you break the fast, don't engage in feasting. Eat less, and eat right.

Fasting is a doctor.

Kenya's Gen Z, The Youth Council belongs to you, take it back now and use it for Civic Education.

Taxpayers fund the National Youth Council which was established to champion the youths' interests.

In 2023, the council was funded with KES 68 Million

Read this thread...Image
This Council was established through its 2009 act of parliament.

It brings young people from the ward level through a rigorous youth election process up to a national level YOUTH BUNGE known as THE NATIONAL YOUTH CONGRESS.

Did you know this?

No, you didn't. Keep reading.

Before we continue,

FYI

60-year-old Boomer, Joshua Kandie who is the Mpig of Baringo Central and has done nothing for this country has sponsored a bill to "de-politicize" the youth council.

This will invalidate the reasons why the council was created in the first place.

Once you "lose appetite",

Avoid these so-called appetite stimulant drugs.

"Loss of appetite" is communication by the body that something is wrong in the gut or on the brain-gut axis.

- Either what you eat is bad or the gut is tired and wants to rest.

Here is what to do Image
1. Give your gut a break by fasting:

Your gut is tired. You have been filling it with food hence overworking it.

It also needs to rest. This will

- Make it regenerate

- Refresh its effeciency

- Reset the lost gut-brain axis Image
2. ACV and SALT

While you FAST, add ACV or SALT in your warm water.

This will improve the stomach acidity that will excite and reinvigorate digestive receptors in the gut. Image

Before you consider cutting off your children's tonsils,

Read this thread and save your child from:

- Bulshit medical advice

- Painful surgical procedure

- Unnecessary medical bills

Hospitals are in the business of chasing profits.

Thread 🧵 ... Image
Tonsils are 2 round fleshy lymphoid nodes in the back of the throat.

They are the first line of immune defence against disease-causing micro-organisms that enter the mouth.

These harmful organisms get into our mouths through fingers, cups, spoons or food etc Image
When the tonsils trap and filter these harmful organisms, they become active.

The tonsils then present these organisms to other immune tissues for further action.

But if the activity is prolonged, they become inflamed.

This inflammation is known as TONSILITIS. Image

If you are struggling with ACNE,

Stop listening to mainstream advice.

They will mislead you to sell you drugs, injections, creams, soaps, lotions and towels.

Read this thread and have an acne-free face.

#FoodFriday Image
Acne are pimples resulting from the clogging of air follicles with sebum, dead skin cells and dead proteins.

This clog attracts skin bacteria leading to inflammation and escalation of the pimples.

#FoodFriday Image
Sebum is an oily substance produced from the sebaceous glands in your skin.

Sebum protects the skin.

But when it is excessively produced, it clogs the pores, enmeshes dead skin cells and attracts skin bacteria leading to inflammation & acne.
