    Your content is always great. No bullshit, no trying to bamboozle people with too much science - just simple functional explanations and exercises for common injuries and physical inhibitions. Great stuff!

    For generations, the women in my family have terrible hip pain starting in their 60’s, eventually leading to the inability to walk very far. As I hit my 50’s, I realized it was the Glute, IT band, and core muscles that were causing my tight hip issues. With this video’s help, I pray I can be the first female in the family to avoid these problems, AND teach all the younger ones how to avoid the family hip problems!

    This is the first video I’ve seen of yours and I just subscribed. I’m a massage therapist that works clinically to help people function and improve health, and I’m also a barefoot/zero point shoe wearer(so I look forward to other videos). I’ve had a period of high stress and lost some glute mass so I am looking into things like this.
    This is a helpful video and, btw, great things and glutes you have there!

    I am really lovin' this science-based steps to strong glutes video that you put out here. It's been super helpful! Could you advice on glute testing and strength building for senior fitness? Specifically, chair based. I have a group of seniors that are pretty active and could use some glute strengthening. From a chair.

  • @marcd1981
    @marcd1981 Před rokem +5

    Thank you for this video, and Happy New Year! I just watched this video and one before it as the first of your videos I've seen. The previous video was for hamstring flexibility and had a link to this video.
    I seem to have a strange combination of issues with hamstrings, glutes and hip flexors. I will be 60 this year and have always been able to touch my toes (and the floor as well) without any problems. This is mainly because I started in Martial Arts at 18, and once I had that flexibility, I have kept it all of these years.
    I just tried your hip flexor flexibility test with my rear knee against the wall and I am not even close to being able to sit upright. Obviously that means my flexors are very tight.
    One of your recommended exercises for glutes is the step-up, and you also mentioned stair climbing as an alternative. I have added stair climbing to my exercise routine (at least once a week) after my wife and I entered a stair climbing event last September.
    It would seem my glutes have gotten stronger with 6 months of regular stair climbing, and being able to touch the floor makes it seem my hamstring flexibility is good as well. However, now I find my hip flexors are super tight, but this doesn't stop me from touching my toes. Should I start this routine (split squats and step-ups) anyway to loosen the flexors?

    @RoguePC4U Před rokem +8

    I'm a life-long fitness enthusiast (now 54) and considered to be in great shape. BUTT... my glutes are lagging - and nothing I do seems to help. Very stubborn body part, even after watching - and following the advice on seemingly every CZcams video about the subject. However, that was until I stumbled on THIS one. Finally... detailed, very specific info as to why glutes may not be activating - and how to actually test and fix them. Great job!

    I already have two of your courses, will another specific course for glute training come out? In your opinion, after a transition period of one year and having followed your course, it is better to always run in minimal shoes or alternate with shoes like Altra Running or Topo to less stress the tendons of the calves? I feel I still have too long recovery times and I can run a maximum of three times a week.

  • @gcruishank9663
    @gcruishank9663 Před rokem +3

    The bottom line is if you want to prevent your body from going downhill quickly as you get older, the absolute best thing you can do is learn how to strength train, and I mean learning how to do the main compound lifts and slowly work your way up in weight until you become strong. How far you take is is how important it is to you to remain active and injury free in your older years. Learn how to barbell squat, deadlift (conventional or summo), some kind pull up (starting out on a lat pull down machine if your not strong enough yet) barbell or dumbbell overhead press, barbell or dmb rows, and barbell or dmb press. Unless your very old and frail(although there’s plenty of examples of people even in their 80’s and 90’s doing this) you CAN DO THIS and it will turn your life around. You don’t need to be mine a bodybuilder, but getting strong is simply one of , if not the best thing you can do for yourself for longevity and disease prevention. NOW GET AT IT!
