    well technically if you're twerking correctly then you're activating your glutes so why not

    not true. twerk is about technique, not necessarily butt size.

    dont ask me how i know this, maybe i'm planning a career change if this project managering stuff doesnt pan out :glasses:

    ha! I have no desire to ever do that. Or have my child do it... or for it to exist at all really. I was just using the opportunity to share a Todrick Hall link since he has a song called Twerking in the Rain.... which I find horrifying and I am embarrassed for him actually... but twerking aside he is talented.

    All men want a woman who can booty pop.

    Some of us will admit it, the rest won't admit it.

    you do realize that your kids are probably already world class booty poppers, right?:laugh:

    Excellent idea - I'll add it to my stronglifts routine. I'm thinking after deadlifts - as that's when I feel most like a badass. I'm gonna be unloading the bar and using that energy to twerk outta that gym from now on. :D

    Ok maybe not at the gym - but is it wrong that I'm now considering trying to twerk (in the privacy of my own home) and check out how good / bad my *kitten* looks in the mirror. I'm even thinking of using this as a new measurement of progress!

    You actually don't activate your glutes while twerking. It works your abs/core. Just trust me on this... Ok?

    it's more low back- and some abs.

    It's hard on your back- it only works your glutes b/c you have to be in a squat/half squat/bent knee position (no glute work if you're twerking upside down on the walls)

    It's good for low back- and your sex life. LOL

    I don't do enough back work- so I twerk between sets to get my heart rate up AND my low back.
