If your glutes (e.g. buttocks, behind, etc.) is not activating, your back is/is going to be in a world of pain and dysfunction. From walking, to squatting, to running, to whatever activity you like to do, the glutes need to be large and in charge.

We will also give you tips on what to do if your hamstrings or lower back are trying to steal the show, and how to tame those guys.
