The Glutes- Hero or Villain?

from Moving Conversations · host Brian Richey and Nora St John

Are stronger glutes the answer to your prayers or causing your low back and hip pain? It depends…The glutes play an essential role in low back and hip health so today we wanted to dive into how, when and why to train them. We discuss underactive glutes, overactive glutes, the relationship between glutes and hamstrings, how range of motion in hip extension affects gluteal activation, the relationship between the glutes and the core and give you lots of practical exercises for effectively assessing and training this critical area. Moving Conversations LIVE in Southern California!  September 13 – 14, 2025 Blue Moon Pilates 24194 Alicia Parkway, Mission Viejo, CA Course include: Movement for Low Back Conditions, Training Upper Body Stability and Pilates and Osteoporosis Register through Blue Moon Pilates at: https://bluemoonpilates.com/workshops We look forward to seeing you there!  Moving Conversation Socials    Brian’s Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions:  Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain  https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6    Email: [email protected]  IG: @movingconvos  FB: Moving Conversations    Brian  IG: @fit4lifedc  FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/     Nora  IG: nora.s.john.7  FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7
