How long did you do BBL?

Questions for those who followed any of the BBL plans --
-how long did you stick with it?
-did you get the results you wanted?
-did you do the "flat solution"?


I'm doing week 4 of the "flat solution," although it's my 5th week of BBL - last week I did the deluxe set, Rio Extreme alternating with Abs Rapido and Upper Cuts. The "flat solution" says to switch to the "classic" after 4 weeks, and I wonder why. I don't need to lose any weight.

I did a BBL rotation for about 6 weeks. It wasn't a strict rotation as I also threw in some other workouts. It didn't do much for my flat butt. It did slim my midsection nicely. It also helps to improve balance.

I did a 4 week rotation but the "too big" rotation. I lost inches and it was fun so I am happy with it. I think I would have had better results if I stuck with it a little longer or at least incorporated Bum Bum and High & Tight into the next rotation. I kind of suspect to really get a rounding result you might need to progressively increase the resistance as your glutes become stronger--ie a stronger band, heavier ankle weights (or wearing both on one leg and pausing to switch). I also do a lot of squats, deadlifts, step-ups, lunges, kettlebell swings and have been into single legged deadlifts and single legged squats lately. I like glute workouts and think mine are pretty well developed (under a layer of fat), I think the workouts in BBL are good as they work a lot of angles but you might either need to add on some of the heavier classics or increase the resistance to put on a little mass to those muscles. I am not sure why it switches everyone to the classic rotation but I don't think classic is about weight loss unless you are dieting, in the "too big" rotation I did it had you doing cardio every day, but the number decreases during classic to a few times a week if I recall correctly.
