I’m an athlete. I am considering small butt implants+BBL. How exactly will the implants effect my athletic performance? (Photo)

I’m reposting this bc I need MORE RESPONSES!! I already had a BBL which I’m happy with, but I would like more projection. When I train for competitions I get really lean and I think I’ll lose my butt. I’d like to augment them with maybe around 250cc implants (as well as another fat transfer). My top priority over my butt cosmetics is my athletic performance. I compete at a high level in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and glute and hip strength are extremely important. How could this impact my performance?

   I think that there is certainly a desire to create a softer implant that will not rupture, but the rupture issue is the primary concern.

Round buttock implants with fat transfer to the hips usually produces a nice result.  I see many, many butt implant patients requesting revision after the first surgery produces a narrow buttocks with little roundness or an even worse hip dent than before surgery.
