We collaborated with Hook & Barrel Magazine to showcase that when it comes to training the glutes, there are two very common misconceptions. 1) they are only for chicks and 2) they are only for aesthetics. Here at MTNTOUGH Fitness Lab, we use glute - focused training to drive performance and injury prevention - proving that dudes need glutes too. While social media influencers may be focused on how to develop a well-rounded backside – the glutes are the powerhouse of the body - and harnessing their potential can transform your fitness and quality of life.
The gluteal complex is comprised of three muscles: the gluteus maximus, the gluteus medius and the gluteus minimus. Together, these muscles work to keep our bodies upright, walk, run, get out of a chair, swing a golf club, or catch yourself when you slip. The glutes stabilize the pelvis, aid in lateral (or side-to-side) movements and essentially prevent us from falling over!
Lower back, hip, knee, and ankle injuries plague Americans at a shocking rate - both active and sedentary adults. As we get older, our ability to stabilize ourselves decreases, and soon, getting out of bed is our first tough task of the day. Whether you are a backcountry hunter, CrossFit athlete, runner, work a desk job, are male or female - training your glutes should be high on your priority list to feel good and look good.
The bottom line? Everyone needs strong glutes. Even you.
