Just crawl out of bed and unlock your glutes two times per week. No big deal! “Unlocking” is the new buzzword I’ve been seeing lately, usually from physical therapists that so badly want to be personal trainers and strength coaches that they start telling people that stretching is more important than lifting for hypertrophy. It’s not. Yes it’s good to do. But it won’t prevent the fact that you’ll need to get very strong at the basics if you want to build a booty. Squats. Thrusts. Deadlifts. Lung

To fix glute imbalances, perform unilateral (single leg) exercises but skew the volume and do more sets for the weaker/smaller glute/leg. | Bret Contreras

Watch coach @jamiederevere demo’ing extra range side lying hip raises. Make sure the extra ROM comes somewhat through hip adduction ( which stretches the upper glutes) and not just spinal rotation (which doesn’t). | Bret Contreras
