Alyssa Olenick reveals the basic, but crucial principles of muscle development, specifically talking about how to grow your booty effectively. To be able to build a bigger butt, she explains that adequate caloric intake is a must since muscle building is an energy-intensive process. She covers the principle of mechanical tension which leads to muscle hypertrophy, and the importance of full range of motion exercises.

Alyssa also touches on the psychological aspects of training, especially concerning women, addressing common apprehensions and underestimating one's physical capabilities.
