Cassey and I investigate the biomechanics of butts. What activates your butt muscles more, running or squatting? How effective are bridges as a butt workout? How much can we change the shape of our bodies with exercise?

What? No deadlifts? Also when doing bodyweight squats there's a phenomenon sometimes called "glute amnesia" (not an official term but I've heard it being thrown around and is quite a fitting description) where unless you focus on it, the body just puts the entire load on the quads because it simply doesn't need the intense power that the glutes can provide (our bodies are actually quite smart when it comes to minimising effort and energy spent). If the other girl was to be recorded for the squat she would most likely show more glute activation in it than when running

@1MarkKeller 4 жыл бұрын

Most people don't drive with the glutes first on their squats. Just as you said, the quads end up doing the work and the glutes take a nap.

@hooplehead1019 4 жыл бұрын

@@1MarkKeller What you guys dont realize is that the quads and glutes have different functions, which only can be replaced with each other a small degree: the quads do knee extension whereas the glutes do hip extension. It gets a bit more complicated with inhibitions and insufficiencies, but thats it in short. So you want hip extension for glute activation. And therefore hip extension exercises especially with bent knees (when hamstring contribution is low and therefore hip extension relies heavily on the glutes and a bit accuctors) outperform squats. Like deadlifts, hip thrusts.

@danpolta8759 4 жыл бұрын

@@hooplehead1019 Absolutely. Give me anyone with "glute amnesia," and I can grow their glutes without any corrective exercises. Hip extension, hip external rotation, hip abduction, and posterior pelvic tilt are movements that will use your glutes no matter what. EMG data is useful, but the comment section is misinterpreting it.
