There are countless exercises for that glutes, many women prefer to build their glutes and never the hamstrings and quads. I counsel our clients to work all of the muscles not just for aesthetic purposes but in addition for healthy joints and muscle imbalances that will happen should you overdevelop one muscle or any other.
?Anatomy of the glutes
?The functions of muscles includes extension, abduction, lateral(external) rotation and medial (internal) rotation from the hip joint. The gluteus maximus also supports the extended knee with the iliotibial tract. There are 3 muscles which make the glutes:
1.Gluteus maximus (The largest)
2.Gluetus medius
3.Gluteus minimus
The bulk of muscle is the gluteus maximus, next is the medius(upper part) and the minimus(deep muscle) because the smallest muscle from the glutes.
Best exercises for those areas
From my experience and the EMG studies from the Glute Guy fundamental essentials best exercises:
1.Hip thrust/Glute bridge
2. Step ups/lunges
3. Reverse hyperextension
4. Sumo deadlift
5. Glute pendulum/Abduction exercises
6. Kettle bell swings
7. Split squat/Bulgarian squat
8.Good morning/Back extension
9.Sprints
10.Low bar squats
Those would be the ten best exercises for that glutes based on science and my own self experience. If you wish to grow faster workout your glutes more oftenly like 2-3 times weekly. Upper/Lower or Full body is a superb option for this set. Remember about variety and progressive overload. The very best being active is that you make the most progress onto it if you don’t up the weights muscle does not have the stimuli to grow. Strive and smart.
