I remember Tracey Anderson saying something awhile back about saddlebags. When you are facing a mirror, reach behind and lift up your butt cheeks. If it looks like your saddlebags disappear, the problem isn't saddlebags. You just need to do exercises to raise your butt. This was certainly true for me. When I started doing Xtrain my butt really lifted and I didn't have the appearance of saddlebags. Same happened when I was doing Kettlebell Kickboxing, extensive lower body work, and Tracie Long workouts. Just something to think about.

I know someone with saddlebags who, in profile, has a high, round butt, but when she faces forward has pockets of fat on her hipbones. Liposuction is the only way to get rid of that if your weight is otherwise fine.

Then she probably does have saddlebags. I was just offering another perspective.

The slide board helped my saddlebags last year. Unfortunately I haven't worked it for a while; need to get back to doing some slide board work.

bubbles76, I think what you said has some validity. I just lifted my buns and it did appear that my saddlebags looked less noticeable. Must try to work the glutes also.

If I lifted my butt cheeks, I would topple over.
