Ooohhhhhh I needed that!! I naturally have the shape & ppl actually asked me what I do but I'm actually hyper-mobile (EDS 😭) & certain exercises just don't hit the same anymore & I automatically protect my knees (osteoarthritis due to accelerated wear & tear) & hip/SI joints (bursitis & 1 side subluxes occasionally) now, at 47, bec I'm worried about injury due to joint instability. However, I still need to strengthen whatever I can. I also need to keep moving to avoid stiffness these days & I want to tone up but need modified exercises like that first one for glutes (THANK YOU!) & thighs. I can do squats fairly well -- but is there another more protective one to help engage and tone up my hamstrings? 😅
I’m one of those people. I’ve been an athlete my entire life and I didn’t know until I was in my 40s and did a walking retreat where we hiked foothills every day for 7-10 miles. I couldn’t keep up at all!?? I was always so far behind?!! I couldn’t figure it out until one of the guides told me, “you may not be activating your glutes”. I have to consciously use my glute when I walk or hike. Incredible
The problem lies in bad posture and usage of wrong muscles. The band helps u stabilize your knees, so u dont put all the weight on them anymore. As the band holds you together u start using the right muscles.
Sorry had to come back to let you know the one side that wasnt firing was so uncontrollable with no muscle control and i could feel this within ten moves! This is just incredible!!!! Thanks yall ROCK!
When I see some of these exercises, such as the band one where you squat and THEN open the leg out and close again, I find myself thinking ‘genius!’ It’s so simple and targets the weak muscle so well
Sensation doesn't tell you everything. Lengthened movements do not produce the same type of burn that shortened movements (like clamshells) do or other shortened movements like hip thrusts. If your form is good and youre performing the movement correctly then your glutes are working whether you feel them or not. And youll often feel them the next day. That being said, I never felt my glutes much in lengthened movements until I used a belt squat machine which gave me a ton of stability and allowed me to just sit back into a squat without having to hold any weight on my back. More stability will allow you feel your glutes more if that's what youre after
But if I do these and then I feel the rdl on my glutes will it mean it’ll grow even more than if i didn’t feel them????(Obv by also doing died, sleep, etc part)
@@maximo7910 no, feeling doesn't determine growth. Muscle growth is caused by hypertrophy. Basically when you're doing a movement and you experience an involuntary slowing of contractions (your reps get slower). That's why pushing to or close to failure is important. Progressive overload is also important. If you're performing the movement correctly and continuing to get stronger at it then you will grow regardless of if you "feel" the muscle during the movement, assuming you're eating enough
Fkn thank you. Common sense arrives. It's like how would a PT know more about your body than thousands of years of adaptation? It's annoying. Gotta sell mediocre protocols somehow.
I had a doctor tell me that activation exercises were a joke and that the movement you’re doing in the gym should be enough. All the expensive schooling just do be an idiot. Doing these activation exercises is the only reason my glutes work, bless this channel 🤘🏻
He’s right tho. Glute activation only works if you’re not really lifting or strength training properly in the first place. Regardless a doctor doesn’t go to school to learn any of this including lifting
@@yoeyyoey8937 They do actually, indirectly. In the very first year of med school, during anatomy classes they learn every single muscle in the body, its name, location, function and direction of movement. Then they get to see those muscles directly on the preserved and disected cadavres. Yet later these idiots with doctor's license end up not remembering or understanding jackshit about the biomechanics of the human body. And then some massagists end up remebering more skeletal muscles anatomy then most doctors... It's a stupid world we live in.
@@Dysstopolis yeah but knowing muscle groups doesn’t mean they know how they work together on actual movement. You’re far overestimating what gets taught in medical school. They don’t understand movement or fitness or anything, that’s not part of the education. They’re not necessarily idiots, the problem is what is in the curriculum and what the academic institutions deem a medical doctor needs to know to do his job.
@@Dysstopolis biomechanics is not really part of any medical school course. Maybe some basics like how a muscle contracts and is attached to a bone, but we pretty much learn that in grade school, and it doesn’t apply to fitness or athleticism at all by itself. Most people, most trainers and the like, don’t even really know how a back squat works. Most people in general tell you not to “lift with you back” instead of telling people to just make their back stronger. This knowledge is basically esoteric at this point.
Thanks so much… I just told my trainer that ‘I don’t understand Why? I don’t feel engagement in my Glutes”… Now I know 👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪 Plus Mind- Muscle connection 🧠-💪
Whatever you’re doing for glutes… to isolate. Tilt body 45 degrees . For anything such as sumo squats. Step ups. Squats target more quad. Rdl is hamstring/glutes. If u don’t feel in ur glutes doing rdl then push through your heels.
This is so true I didn’t start getting a bigger butt until I started focusing on doing a 5-10 min glute activation before work outs and also sometimes doing some glute activation exercises between sets too. Also using resistance band during hip thrusts and good mornings helps
Same. What helped me is ‘deactivating’ hamstring on hip thrusts by doing frog pumps with weight. Also reverse hyper frog pumps for activation and any hip thrusts should be done with a band to ‘cue’ glutes instead of hamstrings taking over.
Instead of squats replace it with sumo squats. 45 degrees body tilt. At all time . Squats mainly for quads. Rdl in order to feel it bend knees slightly a bit. SLIGHTLY only. N push through your heels. I normally do single leg rdl to have a better focus only one glute at a time . Then I do both.
I’m doing this today! And always! Thanks for keeping it simple sometimes it gets complicated with lots of five different exercises than every video or two is just the amount that I can remember and then go do the exercise.

I don’t think activation is necessary in my unprofessional opinion. If your form is correct, then your glutes are being worked/used regardless if you feel it or not. Some people get caught up in chasing the burn.
It's important bc if your gluts don't take the load, other muscles will need to compensate. The biggest problem is when the lower back compensates for the gluts and takes too much load which can cause a lot of problems
@LaiLai.. not at all. He's shown many people using the right form but don't feel their gluts activating while doing rdls and squats. He calls it gluteal amnesia bc it's not activating when it should
If you’re training properly and progressively overloading with good exercise selction then your glutes are going to grow because the HAVE TO. If you’re doing activation or “feeling” the muscles then you’re not really strength training imo. You’re trying to feel like you’re working out without putting much effort into it.
@@angiesplaylist23your gllutes have to work in certain movement patterns tho. It’s like saying that you need yo activate your triceps before doing bench or dips or pushups. That doesn’t make any sense
Posture, make sure you arent leaning too far forward when you run. Try doing short(less than 100% effort) sprints while tightening your core to try and get the feel.
You don’t need to feel them when running to have them work optimally - but this first exercise can be a helpful warm up to make sure they’re activated!
Everyones posture, leg size back, center of gravity is different. At the end of the day, find a foot, leg, and bar placement where you are evenly pushing off with the heel of your feet as with the ball of your feet. If you feel too much pressure on your toes, your posture and angle are wrong, you are leaning too far forward. You might have to arc your back more or literally, scoot the bar back an inch. Maybe spread your legs out more, point your toes out more. If you really want a big but, do the sumo dead lift, toes pointed outwards.
Pro tip for anybody making content like the girl in the first video- set your audio track to mono when you edit so that I don’t think one of my ear buds is fucking broken when you talk.
Had the exact same sensation, but I also think some do that on purpose to get the attention of people scrolling through tiktok or other short clip apps
I love this channel. I’m someone with just an abnormal muscularity and when I exercise I never feel that targeted muscle group activated (push-ups burn my shoulders and elbows instead of my chest and so forth) so these videos help a ton. I want to work on stability of my back and hips for dead lifts but can never activate the muscles correctly and then I see this and am like “oh, that’s how it’s supposed to feel”😂😂
For pushups, could me your positioning. Sounds like you’re flaring your elbows like crazy which will hurt you in the long run. Try twisting your wrists in ward to lock your elbows in place. Wider stance for chest. Narrow for biceps.
@@meganruhnke3962 I honestly couldn’t tell you, I just have started to work on strengthening my forearms and my shoulders to accommodate for the joint weakness so I can hopefully reduce some of that pain. I keep my form pretty consistent too (Army PRT push-ups mean your elbows stay tucked) and it just wrecks my wrists on top of the aforementioned shoulder and elbows
