LET’S TALK ABOUT GLUTE ACTIVATION . Ladies, listen up because this is VERY, VERY important if you want to grow a 🍑. . And guys, there’s an important message here for you too, so keep reading.👌🏼 . Whenever you hear a trainer say you need to squeeze your glutes, the picture on the left is what they mean. If your butt doesn’t look weird and scrunched up like that, you’re not getting full glute activation.😳 . Squeezing your glutes is not only important for booty exercises where you’re trying to build a bigger bum, it’s also necessary to maintain a stable core during compound movements like the squat, overhead press, and deadlift.💪🏼 . One thing fitness teaches us is that we have to get uncomfortable to get results. You have to be willing to look weird now so you can look amazing later.😅 . If you get caught up in your head worrying about how you look while exercising, you’re missing out on some serious gainz.😟 . I can understand why girls feel uncomfortable training in the gym because a lot of the best butt exercises look like you’re trying to have sex with a barbell or cable machine!🙀😹 . I remember the first time I did cable pull throughs and feeling a little awkward myself. (bending over with a cable between your legs and thrusting your hips forward) . One thing I would say to you is that when you’re in the gym, there’s no reason to ever feel ashamed for training effectively. The people who know what you’re doing get it and those who don’t understand don’t matter cause they just don’t know any better!🤷🏼♀️ . Shout out to @sarahvictoriafit for getting uncomfortable and sharing her “ugly butt” for everyone else to learn from!🙌🏼 . I’m curious, what exercises always feel the most awkward to do in front of others for you?? . . . . . #calories #foodprep #fatlossdiet #weightlosstip #fitnessaddiction #fitnessgirl #personaltrainer #personaltraining #postworkout #squatspo #workouttime #bodybuildingcom #macrocounting #caloriecounting #strongissexy #strengthtrain #nutritionable #nutritional #carbcycling #mealplan #fitlifestyle #entrepreneurmindset #ceolife #calisthenics #bodyweightexercise (at Tulsa, Oklahoma)
