Glute Exercises Everyone Can Try
Strong glutes aren't just about aesthetics — they play a huge role in hip stability, lower back support, and everyday movement like standing up, climbing stairs, or bending down. Weak glutes are also a common hidden contributor to lower back pain, especially for anyone who sits for long periods.
In this short video, Glen demonstrates a few simple, effective glute exercises to activate and strengthen this key muscle group — suitable whether you're just starting out or building on existing training, and easy to do at home with little to no equipment.
Key takeaways:
Glute strength supports your hips, knees, and lower back — not just how things look.
These exercises are scalable, so beginners and experienced exercisers can both use them.
Focus on controlled movement and really feeling the muscle work, rather than rushing through reps.
If you feel this more in your lower back than your glutes, that's usually a sign of technique that needs to be adjusted worth getting checked in a session.
