glutes for men

yopeeps025

Do any men do glute exercise more than just squats?

I know hip thrust and the bridge exercise are good ones.

- squats

- deads

- lunges

- bulgarian split squats

- supine hip extensions (I usually use a medicine ball)

I do all of the above and more depending on my training cycle (i.e. I don't do them all at the same time)

so no isolated butt exercises?

... Squats

In all seriousness, if you push your squats hard then you shouldn't have to do a ton more exercises. Walking Lunges are good but I don't know that your average person as the flexibility and balance to really hit the glutes well with a Split Squat. Step-ups on a tall box could I suppose.

For squats I do not think I do. I concentrate more on quads than anything else.

I do those hiding behind a Swiss ball in my core routine.

Wide stance squats and glute kick backs. I dont like doing glute bridges specially when the gym is crowded. :laugh:

Deadlifts and kettlebell swings are great for your posterior chain.

Your glutes and hips are really powerful muscles already, they do their best work when used in compound lifts. Focus on keeping your glutes tight when squatting, you'd be surprised at the power it can provide.

low squats and heavy walking lunges. youll die with lunges lol

yopeeps025

Low squats. What is a low squat? Like touch your ankles or something.

Going as far past parallel as you can without losing form.

same reason a man pecs is not called man breasts.

Sounds like the muscle changes the meaning.

Women have pecs and glutes too, Dude.

Gotta get the load transfer on the squat you'll feel it in your gultes and hamstrings.

"I really like her pecs and glutes." Sounds fine to me. I will use that and see what the girl says this weekend.

I'm willing to bet it'll go over better than "I really like your tits and booty."

Don't be ridiculous Sheena. We have breasts and booties. We don't have muscles!

Well, I have to say it sounds a lot less creepy than "Nice t*ts and *kitten* yo!"

I wish theyd have a room just for bridges and thrust. It is very awkward doing them in the full gym. At least when your doing them in a class everyone is in the same position.

I will let you know the immediate reaction to scenario straight up. Approach a girl " I like your pecs and glutes."

JoRocka

I would be extremely flattered if someone said that.

pecs=/=boobs.

yopeeps025

Do you want it to wave when it's smacked?

Do you think a girl would be into that?

MiloBloom83

Climbing hills on my bike has worked for me. Just keep your hips back, over the saddle. If you throw your weight up over the stem, the climb is easier but you wont build strength were you want it.

I think I'd be more inclined to take the compliment without slapping the person that said it.

Not actually sure why.

We will see. Matter a fact, i'm going out tomorrow night.

Let us know when you post the results thread from that soon-to-be train wreck please.

Rage_Phish

this thread sure went downhill fast

I have to do glute work as I was born without an *kitten*. Progression on the squat and deadlifts was stagnant until I started doing hip thrusts. Started with body weight then went to single leg then weighted barbell.

I do them at home though. Even if I was comfortable doing them at the gym there is not really an open space for doing them.

You can look up "pull thorough" on the cable machine. Very good exercise but it also a bit awkward.
