Are you struggling to grow your glutes?
Almost every glute focused exercise includes a hip hinge so if you don’t know how to do it PROPERLY, then you are going to STRUGGLE to get a dumpy.
I think when most of us think of hip hinging, we automatically think of an RDL which yes RDL’s are a very key hip hinging movement, but there are MANY: goodmornings, deadlifts, hip thrusts, kettlebell swings… (TO NAME A FEW)
If you’re struggling to grow your glutes… chances are you need to improve your hip hinge.
One of the biggest things I see people struggle with is lower back pain from going past their range of motion. Everyones range of motion is different, so I recommend filming yourself to see where your range of motion ends.
In this video, you can clearly see where I am going past my ROM because you can see my hips are no longer pushing backwards and my hamstrings & glutes stopped stretching.. and I began overcompensating by rounding my back/ spine.
Once you find your ROM you can use a stopper to help you…
Hope this helps🥰

Growing your glutes effectively often requires a strong focus on correct hip hinge techniques. Exercises such as Romanian Deadlifts (RDLs), good mornings, and kettlebell swings engage the glute muscles while promoting proper hip movement. If you find yourself dealing with lower back pain, it might indicate that your range of motion (ROM) is being exceeded during these exercises. It's essential to identify your personal ROM, which can vary from person to person. Filming yourself while performing these movements is an excellent strategy to pinpoint any issues in your form. By seeing how your hips function during exercises, you can adjust your technique and make necessary corrections to prevent further pain and maximize your gains. Additionally, consider using a stopper to maintain control over your ROM. This will not only help prevent overextension but will also assist in developing muscle memory for the right movement patterns. If you're consistent about evaluating and adjusting your hip hinge, you can significantly enhance glute activation, leading to stronger and more well-defined muscles over time. Remember, small adjustments can yield large results in your fitness journey.
