A genetic phenotype resulting in excessive adipose tissue accumulation in the buttocks, commonly observed in the Khoisan of Southern Africa. 2. Health Implications

Humans possess disproportionately larger butts compared to other animals due to the size and function of the gluteus maximus muscle, which is essential for bipedal locomotion, maintaining upright posture, and enabling movements like running and walking.

A larger butt can be developed through specific exercises targeting the glutes, including squats, lunges, deadlifts, and hip thrusts.

A significantly protruding rear can sometimes be linked to an anterior pelvic tilt , where the pelvis tilts forward, affecting the curvature of the lower back. 3. Training and Development
