I used to perform high step ups on a 28inch box because I thought I’d feel it more in my posterior chain and although the movement was challenging I couldn’t feel my posterior chain at all. Now that you spoke about the active range of hip extension it all makes sense as to why I can feel it better on a 90° step up. A very small detail but a very important one. Thanks a lot!

[@PhysiqueDevelopment]

We are so glad it could help out! Thanks for watching. :)

[@susanmiller2890]

What a difference when I follow these instructions. I can feel the effort more in the front glute. Thank you for a short, clear video.

[@PhysiqueDevelopment]

Great to hear! Happy to help!

[@janseyveloz8515]

How short and perfect! Great vid

Glad you liked it! Thanks so much for watching and supporting our work.

[@tinaspigener2102]

Thanks

[@batman-sr2px]

Do stepups target the upper shortened position for the glutes like if we just do the top portion of the movement can it replace glute bridges/hip thrusts? Is most of the weightbearing load on the quads or glutes at top?

This is helpful!

[@144gia]

for a 5'2 person, what height is the most efficient? i have trouble finding the perfect height in equipment adjustments unless there's straight up numbers

[@jaylavalentine2340]

What inches is the one you’re using?

[@robertbrown3400]

Where do I find that platform? Ive looked everywhere. All I can find are the skinny ones

[@eannamcnamarafitness6057]

That's by "Rogue"

[@Sidali1104]

Good job 👍🌹🌹

[@PhysiqueDevelopment]

Thank you so much! Is this a movement you do consistently in your lower body training?

[@Sidali1104]

@@PhysiqueDevelopment According to the explanation you provided and the benefit of this movement, I will definitely do it in almost every exercise. Thank you very much. I also have many questions. Best regards, Sidali.🌷🌷🌹🌹🌹🌷🌷

[@richdiorio3650]

How many how often should a beginner do these?

[@PhysiqueDevelopment]

1x Per Week as part of your leg training is a good starting point!

[@bambam6231973]

I need that step where can I buy??

[@PhysiqueDevelopment]

Absolutely, here is a link... www.amazon.com/dp/B07TPRTF7K?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzsuzannah-20&creativeASIN=B07TPRTF7K&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.3BNLHFRRSY3S3&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ons_mixed_d_asin&th=1

[@plasmarayblaster399]

I’m a little on the heavy side ( weight is close to 200 prob in my 190s again) but how can I put more weight when I’m trying to go up? I still feel like I drive with my foot pushing from the floor not the box itself on my right leg

[@assmonkey9202]

a little💀

[@Baegitte]

Hold dumbbells in each hand or wear a weighted vest

[@catedoge3206]

these are more difficult than meets the eye with weights!

[@PhysiqueDevelopment]

100%, once you truly have tension on the muscle, it's a game changer! are you working on glute growth right now?

[@funnystories77]

The exercise seems more focused on quads than glutes; yes?

[@PhysiqueDevelopment]

this is glute focused! why do you feel it's more focused on quads?

[@funnystories77]

I do not yet understand the biomechanics, but it seems like it is working the quads far more
