Your glutes are one of the biggest, most powerful muscle groups in your body.
And thats where a dedicated glutes finisher comes in to help change that.
So what makes an effective glutes finisher?

One example of why the glute med and min are important?
Say you pick up a heavy box.
Also, the stronger your hip abductors are, the stronger your glutes complex will be as a whole.
Think of the glutes complex as a chain that is only as strong as its weakest link.
In that context, it’s kind of like an exclamation point, says Jamison.
This finisher also pairs well with an abs-focused routine.
You could also use this finisher as a quick standalone workout if youre strapped for time, she adds.
(Just check that towarm up firstso you dont jump into it with cold muscles.
However you approach this finisher, check that to keep your movements small.
It may sound counterintuitive, but in this scenario smaller movements are better and more powerful, explains Jamison.
Another tip: check that you activelyengage your glutesthe entire time.
It can help to actually tap your hand (if its free) on your butt, says Jamison.
That’ll help the neuromuscular system sync up a little bit more.
