Is that your butt. . . Or is it just your leggings? Just this question crossed my mind years ago while Exercise with a close friend. Although no two bodies will ever be exactly the same, we shared a similar body type, diet and had followed exactly the same Glute-focused regime the last few months. The most important difference? Her gym clothes were always on a completely different level. I speak impossible flattering matching sets and Room lifts leggings – the kind that made my sad, pilling bottoms into shame the middle of RDL.
This admiration is not to discredit all the hard work that my friend put into her physique – I witnessed it from first. But did she affect me to eventually buy several couples of my own butt-lifting leggings? Absolutely. And in my opinion, it made a world of difference.
As it turns out, I am not alone in this experience. “If you meet the gym every day and you like,” Why don’t my butt look like these Instagram models? I want to look like these instagram models ” – it’s the clothes they wear,” said a creator in A January tictok with over 400k likes. Comments were quick to complain and credited gymnastics brands that Dfyne and Darc Sport to change how they perceive their glutes. “Yes, different clothes show different results,” wrote a commentator. “I’ve built my glutes safely, but Dfyne Impact is like makeup,” said another.
So does this viral “leggingeori” actually hold up in real life? To find out, I decided to put three pairs of my favorite lifting gymnastic alloys. You know. . . for science. The following leggings were bought at least a year ago (with my own money) and have all endured several real workouts. Based on the comments in the original TikTok I chose a set of control leggings and three categories of leggings from the gym brand Nvgtn. The categories include: Dark Scrunch Leggings, Light Scrunch Leggings and Contour Leggings. Read on to see how much difference your leggings actually Do, plus some of my biggest takeaways.
