Recruit the Glutes
These classes will help you discover what's going on in YOUR own body. My goal is to help you strengthen the glutes, rotators (both internal and external) and further nourish the connection between your brain and your glutes, pelvis and deep core so that they fire when they are supposed to.
How can this helpful?
- the glutes have a big job so if they aren't firing correctly other muscles have to compensate which leads to overuse, misalignment of the pelvis and pain (low back, pelvic, hips, etc)
- strengthening the rotators will help create healthy, stable hips
- walking will feel smoother and everyday things like getting up and down out of chairs or using stairs will be less troublesome
- you will be less likely to be injured by things like picking things up if your muscles are firing correctly
- knees & feet will benefit from the support of a strong pelvis
The way this program works is students will complete the class 2-3X a week and then once you feel like you have that down, move on to the following week. They will progressivly get more challenging, just like we did in Core Rehab.
Doing Recruit the Glutes in combo with the Core Rehab program is actually a super idea! 2X a week for each, they are about half an hour long, and you'll be feeling stronger in no time!

Recruit the Glutes Week 3
Today we are stepping it up a notch. Our postures are growing as is the range of motion. The idea is to keep the integrity of the glutes & pelvic floor firing and the muscles working together throughout the entirety of the movement. This is really going to help the brain connect those dots! R...
