Scientists revealed having a big butt could be the key to being a speed sprinter – a skill we cannot photoshop, unfortunately.
Experts from Loughborough University found that sprinters with a large gluteus maximus – a muscle that forms the bottom – run up to 44 percent faster.
The study, published in the Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise journal tested the muscle anatomy of 42 men.
It tested five elite sprinters, 26 sub-elite and 11 healthy but untrained participants, to understand whether the size of their muscles affected their performance.

The problem is stopping.
Have those scientists met Jerry Nadler? Oprah?
Yea there’s a big difference between a fat butt and killer glutes. You get killer glutes from working legs. Squats.
If that were true, my first wife would be an Olympian.
Studies show Slow Joe is the inside of a fat assed horse.
Apologies to any horse lovers. It was a metaphor.
MJA – My laugh of the month. Thanks!

I’m an old white guy, I have no ass. Anything more than 30 cents in my pocket….my pants fall down.
Bongo, Hambone,
Youse guys are killing me. To funny
My son is half Samoan. My Cutie-Patutie with a big round bum. He could carry a gallon of milk before he was two. Now he’s eight and my 75 year old mother can probably outrun him. Built for strength.
100% true. Look at all the Bro’s and Ho’s at the next track meet.
They needed a STUDY to figure this out???
Scientists say…..That’s when I stop reading.
Wasn’t there a song
“I like fast sprinters, and I cannot lie…”
Kellyanne Conway can probably run fast
LOL! I giddit.

Mike Obama can break the sound barrier I guess.
…I didn’t know this was a song about running…

Obola’s all ass – so he must be able to outrun lightning.

If I don’t cinch my belt up real real tight or wear my suspenders or both I can’t keep my pants up. Oh the joys of becoming an old guy. And sometimes I forget to zip up my pants as well. I have to do a lot of double checking just to make sure that I’m not walking out with my barn door open. I’m turning into my dad who had a lot of the same problems and my brothers are pretty much the same way. None of us ever had a butt to speak of, especially when we were young as skinny as a string bean with bird legs to boot.
I know that I’m an old fart but I’ve never thought a huge bubble butt on a female is attractive. More than a generous handful(on either side) of the female form is too much IMHO!
I wonder how much taxpayer money was wasted on this useless “study.”
^^^^
Probably at least the same amount wasted on why lesbians are prone to
alcoholism and obesity.
When I was a teen, 5′ 9″, 140# with a 30″ waist, I was forced to wear 32″ pants/jeans because the 30s would not fit my ass and thighs……. I blame my father.
Never much in the speed department but could do distance easily.
Anonymous II- Don’t fergit the flannel shirts and diesel oil!
The study was done on men. Prolly some homo researcher just wanted to spend all day checking out men’s asses.
stacy abrams must be a world-class sprinter
Yeah, toward being the first in line at Golden Corral.
So the bigger the muscle that is almost 100% responsible for your running motion …. the bigger and stronger that muscle is, the faster you will be? The devil you say!!
Sounds kind of shady, but if that’s what the science says.
One thing that clears up is why Jamaicans are faster than Japanese. I mean, Japanese hardly have asses at all
How fast is Kim Kard Ass Eyun ???
We’ll, after all, we fat bottomed girls do make the rockin’ world go round.
