Brazil Butt Lift: The Triangle Method By: Abelardsmith
Brazil Butt Lift is an incredible program. It’s success can be measured by its clients: numerous Victoria Secret Supermodels have trained personally with Brazil Butt Lift trainer Leandro Carvalho, looking to get their bodies and derrieres into runway condition. His classes in NYC are standing room only and have been voted number one by New York Magazine, and now his workout method has been picked up by Beachbody, the creators of P90X, and are being distributed across the nation. What’s the secret to all this success? How does Leandro Carvalho get such phenomenal results? Read on, and find out.
Leandro ascribes the success of his technique to his ‘TriAngle Method’. “It’s all about the angles,†he’s fond of saying, and by this he means the approach to tackling the muscles of the butt. Most butt workouts consist of typical lunges and squats, that target the muscles in traditional, simple ways, bulking them up while only asking them to operate in a couple of ways. Leandro, having taken his title of “Butt Master†seriously, analyzed the way that the most relevant muscles work, and designed a way to target all of them.
The key to his technique is targeting the muscle ‘heads’. These are the parts of the muscle that attach to the skeleton, and it is their condition that directly affects how tight and perky the muscle are. By working out from different angles, he seeks to tighten those connections as well as tone the butt, all without bulking up.
Your butt, in case you didn’t know, is made up of three main muscles: the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus. The maximus is the largest and strongest of the three buttocks muscles, and as the main muscle it contributes directly to the fullness and roundness of your appearance. To help flesh it out and lift it up, Leandro devised workouts like the Ipanema Walk and the Curtsey Lunge to help firm it up and give it the shape you want.
The medius lies underneath the maximus, and over the outer surface of your hips. This muscle’s job is to stabilize the pelvis during standing toning exercises and rotational movements. Working this muscle plays a fundamental role in shaping your butt, as this is a stubborn area and needs particular attention. Use Leandro’s signature On the Beach Leg Lift, Side Lunge Knee Up, and Suspended Clam.
Finally, the minimus also lies beneath the maximus, and works with the medius. By working out this small muscle and its muscle heads you can achieve excellent buttock lift, and toward that end Leandro uses moves like the Squat Arabesque, Kneeling Leg Lift, and Attitude Kick Back.
By combining targeted TriAngle Training with Afro-Brazilian capoeira and dance, along with ballet and more traditional gym workouts, Leandro brings a tornado of focused, intense exercise to your buttock muscles, while also toning and firming up your hamstrings and melting the fat off your whole body to reveal your fantastic results. Set to Brazilian rhythms, including fun dance routines, innovative moves and high energy approach, the Brazil Butt Lift is going to help you perfect your booty like never before.(read entire article)(posted on: 2009-12-30)
