  • ==THE SECRET TO REAL GLUTE ACTIVATION==
    Tried every glute activation drill ever and still seem to be struggling to make them work?
    You need to actually train your adductors - but that’s a different muscle? How does that work?
    Many people completely overlook adductor exercises!
    The reason being, it seems to be counter productive against getting the knees to come in during a squat to train the muscle that would pull more right? Everyone can see the sense of the banded squats and forcing the knees out when squatting because they feel their glutes working with the resistance from the band.
    Surely actively trying to pull the knees inwards wouldn’t work?
    Well that’s where you’re wrong, where does the resistance come from when you don’t have the band anymore?
    Your adductors!
    If they are stronger the glutes have more to work against so that they can be stronger too!
    If they are weak then the glutes won’t live up to their full potential and the knees will just cave inwards.
    Both of my main programs SMM and end range training have a heavy focus towards working the adductors and glutes in conjunction with the core, all of the missing puzzle pieces are within them! Check out my shop here: ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

    Hey Tom, when you put your knee up against Jenni's knee, are y'all pressing into each other's knee? I'll have to do it against a wall (widow). You need to mic up differently because it's really hard to hear. Sounds like you're in a tunnel...

      There’s a good few on google covering it at the moment, used to be a very good one on james Jowseys website but I can’t see it there anymore unfortunately!

    Haven't actually heard this concept before but it makes so much sense! Wonder if it might the culprit behind my nagging knee pain and my squat lagging a long way behind my deadlift (always had trouble feeling the glutes on squats compared to other lower body lifts). Interested to know what you think of copenhagen planks as another exercise that might help address the adductor weakness?
    Thanks for the great content Tom!

    • @TomMorrison
      @TomMorrison  2 года назад +1

      Yes the Copenhagen is a good one, one of the movements that made it into SMM is the side plank march partially for this reason 😄

    Ive got a case of Anterior Pelvic Tilt, and Im hyperextensive. Side of knee stinging when squatting is very common, and the Hip Flexors are tight at times. A move like the Split Squat is more Hip Flexor dominant for me, and tightens them even more! 😂 I want to incorporate moves like this into Leg Day with more Glute Raises, Glute Bridges. You make content very entertaining and encouraging. Thanks.👍👍

  • @Skiamakhos
    @Skiamakhos 2 года назад

    I find I get through a lot of bands - they develop small nicks which lead to them snapping & then once they're at that stage they'll snap again if I tie them. Are there any brands or types of bands that are less prone to this? Also, if you've got no bands to hand, would putting a football-sized gym ball between your knees & squeezing it when you squat do much good?

      The interesting paradox is that I still need to use them with people sometimes but it’s in conjunction with the overall picture too, there’s always much more needs to be addressed than one muscle, that goes for anything really!!

      Sam Callaway depends what type of stretching you do, static stretches for the splits for example aren’t great to do before squats, plus twice isn’t a lot of times 😂
