This literally could not have had better timing. I just discovered that I have weaker glute max and my adductor magnus and piriformis really take over when I squat and deadlift. Will definitely use this along with adductor magnus and piriformis stretch before squatting and deadlifting. Excellent video and thanks for uploading!

Hi brent! Thnx for such a Quick reaction! I'm gonna try these. I want to build more muscles and gain weight. I Find it hard to activate my glutes during excersises such as the hip thrust and cable kickbacks. I hardly feel the burn. It is especially the case with my right glute..

Jay Wade Hey Jay, Great question. You could do either - if you switched sides with each exercise you would be giving your glutes rest between exercises and the circuit would be easier. Doing the exercises back-to-back, all on one side, and then switching sides is much more difficult and the way I generally perform the circuit. Experiment and tell me what you think.

Hello Brent, Can i do the side lying leg raise like you do in this video, but staying away from the wall enough to be able to give 15 degrees of hip extension (heel on the wall) to activate the gluteus maximus, also with slight external rotation of the hip to activate the posterior fibers of the gluteus medius ? Like a combination of what you do in this video and the video - gluteus medius isolated activation Thank You

Hi Brent, love your work. I have a whole host of left leg issues plantar fascitis and sore knees. I think my right glute med is weak and my left glute med is super tight like it is trying to provide stability by seizing up. Biomechanically, would it make sense to activate the weak glute and just leave the other tight one alone or would there be merit in doing soft tissue work on the tight hip at the same time? Many thanks for considering this question!

We always recommend addressing all tissues exhibiting less than optimal behavior. This should not be based on what you feel (feeling are not facts ;-), and often deceive us), rather it should based on assessment. For example if you had an asymmetrical weight shift to the right, you would release the biceps femoris, piriformis and adductor magnus on the left and activate the right glute using the circuit above. Hope that helps, Dr. B2

Brent Brookbush thanks Brent. This is so interesting. I'm actually a chemistry teacher in England and am considering signing up for your premium content as I'm finding it fascinating. I had a open ankle dislocation 2 years ago and am currently trying to address all the compensations my body has made due to having no dorsiflexion and arthritis in the ankle. Stengthening the hips, in particular the glute med on the affected leg has helped enormously although my posterior tibial tendon has taken an awful lot of abuse and gives me a lot of grief. Your videos are very clear and well presented, cheers Brent.

Hey Asalane, If we refer to Norkin and White, then up to 20 degrees is optimal. I think if we are being more strict with form and prohibiting lumbar extension, an anterior pelvic tilt, and possibly cuing a flat spine for consistency we may be looking at closer to 10 degrees being optimal.

Physio student here, Why do the Glute max activation with full knee extension (Why put knee in flexion to knock out hamstring activation in hip ext?) Also, how about a pillow under the belly to keep L/Spine in neutral position?
@BrookbushInstitute
@BrookbushInstitute 6 жыл бұрын
Did you watch the video Aleks? Knee extension is used to reciprocally inhibit the biceps femoris, you could use knee flexion but it would have to be knee flexion beyond 90 so that the vector on the knee results in gravity pushing further into flexion so the hamstrings do not become active... this is actually a tougher thing to cue. And why not use your intrinsic stabilizers using the abdominal drawing-in maneuver and or anterior abdominal muscle activity to attain a neutral spine?

If you can do more after completing 2 sets move on to other strengthening work such as bridges, bridges with rotation, side-stepping circuits, SAQ, and more traditional lower body training, i.e. squats, deadlifts, lunges, etc. And yes... poor Jordan... one of the hazards of volunteering to be a model in a video ;-) B2

If the right glute is weaker why not load it? if this guy is playing sports etc, he can presumably squat, lunge etc. He can progressively load the muscles of the weaker glute which is the only way to actually address the imbalance caused by the lumbar pathology. I'm not sure how this band can overcome the strength deficit in the glute? As a side question, what does activation mean in this context?
@BrookbushInstitute
@BrookbushInstitute 8 жыл бұрын
+maulstar1 This is a two part question and I am going to try and give a 2 part answer that will explain the technique above - Activation and integrated strengthening (loading as you call it) are not one in the same, nor will they have the same affect. A patient with lumbar pathology above may not be able to do lunges or squats due to pain, but in the case of the patient above what I am more concerned with is compensation. Due to the pain and changes in motion, the patient above has altered lengths and activities of several muscles. That should be corrected before we start doing larger movement patterns. For example, in this patients case, the biceps femoris (part of the hamstring) was synergistically dominant for an inhibited gluteus maximus. If he were to do lunges, it is not his glute that is going to fire, but his over-active biceps femoris. Using an activation technique like the one above, I can increase the "activity" (also known as tone, motor unit recruitment, neural drive, etc) to his under-active glutes preparing him for loaded integrated activities. It is likely I would follow this with a loaded exercise, but I am willing to bet if you tried this before a lower body routine you would feel better. Sincerely, Dr. B2

@BrookbushInstitute
@BrookbushInstitute 9 жыл бұрын
fionnan hallinan You are right, gravity may be assisting knee extension, but it is the quad contraction that interests me. The longer lever of a straight leg will certainly make it harder, but generally the glutes (even when inhibited) are strong enough to simply raise the weight of the leg. I often have to add some resistance to this exercise just to get a sufficient stimulus for continued progress. B2

Brent Brookbush but would the quads contraction which would include the rectus femoris, a hip flexor, not cause glute inhibition....if the knee was nearly fully extended the hamstrings would be under eccentric load so difficult to assist glutes and it would be a long lever technique...I completely agree with the importance of triple extension for every day function tho
@BrookbushInstitute
@BrookbushInstitute 9 жыл бұрын
fionnan hallinan The rectus femoris is an extensor of the knee and hip flexor and to give you a definitive answer I would need to see EMG research as to whether the rectus femoris can inhibit the glutes and what effect hip extension has on rectus femoris activity. I actually want as little help from the hamstrings as possible, as the intent of this exercise is to reduce synergistic dominance of the hamstrings and increase gluteus maximus activity. Although I do not have the research to support the hypothesis, I do believe triple extension in general is a good additional cue for enhancing glute recruitment. Thank you for the questions, Dr. B2

why not bend the working knee during the glut max activation in prone? seems to take the hamstrings out of the equation
@BrookbushInstitute
@BrookbushInstitute 8 жыл бұрын
+IANjib8617 Great question Ian, In my experience, bending the knee leads to individuals activating their hamstrings to ensure the knee stays bent (resist gravity) or bending their knee during the exercise like it is a modification of a leg curl. Using the quadriceps (knee extended) to reciprocally inhibit the hamstrings has resulted in better glute activation for me and my patients/clients. Further, the cues used in this video reinforce triple extension mechanics, which may be far more functional (transfer well to activity) than the bent knee variation. Hope that answers your question, Dr. B2

This is a very late response but here it goes anyway. Usually when manually testing glut max strength you will have the patient prone in the same position as the video, but with their their leg bent, as cyborg mentioned. I've pondered why that is, because I too feel the hamstrings working when I do it myself, but could it be because of active insufficiens of the hamstrings? What if the leg bending was passive with the therapist gently holding it bent? That would attribute to active insufficiens AND the patient not having to actively contract their hamstrings to hold the leg in place, right? Would that be possible, or would it interfere too much with the movement?

You are correct on all counts. I think the secret to using a bent let is to allow the leg to bend past 90 degrees so that gravity is assisting in further flexion. At this point, the individual has to use their quadriceps to keep their leg straight and this helps to inhibit the hamstrings. I have done both muscle testing and muscle activation with straight and bent legs, both are effective, I find the method above easier to teach. Dr. B2

Brent Brookbush I see. That's a very good point. Yeah I think I'll play around with it and keep learning. Thank you again for all your great content! It's rare to see someone actually engage questions and use clinical reasoning. It's much appreciated!

but when u use band there is no weights add in, so does really your glutes grow if u use a band??

Weight and bands both add resistance. Your glutes do not know the difference. However, you wanted to, you could use an ankle weight for the same circuit. Dr. B2

true, but ankle weights are so much more expensive and in my country they sell only 2kg per leg, it is so hard to find the heavier one. What type of band (based on the hard level) should I buy, if I am lifting 45kg (I will get heavier) when squating and hip truhsting? And thanks for your respond, it means a lot.

Just a set of the 4 different colors of Mini-exercise Bands from Perform Better will keep you busy for a while. Your goal is 20 slow reps of each exercise without rest between. It's really tough. Dr. B2

Here you go King Alleyne,kzbin.info/www/bejne/qneTnJdohs6LoZI As far as how long... you should see some improvements immediately; however, you may need to do these exercises for 6 months to reinforce the new movement pattern and ensure that you do not revert back to previous compensation patterns.
