These are great…can I do this even though my hamstrings hurt? I pulled (I think) a few years back at a running race and haven’t been able to run since…the race was 30 miles and now I can’t run a half mile 😢 but during physical therapy they gave me stretches but also said to strengthen my glutes.

You are welcome, glad it helped.
I can do the standing exercises ( not bad for nearly 80) my hip replacement went really well. No bruising or swelling. My surgeon said that my muscles were in good order and I was not overweight which was in my favour. Getting on the floor is an issue unless I can pull myself up on something. Perhaps you could show us how to get off the floor with no aids. It is hard to believe how fit I am, compared to a year ago though. I did prehab thanks to yourselves, and I try to keep at the exercises, and they have paid off.
I was just thinking of glute stability and you guys made a video on it, thx
You guys make such a difference for me. Thank you 😊
Exactly the exercises I was looking for, great work.
You guys have been so helpful during my sciatica recovery. Bless the 2 of you.
❤ love you two !!! Thanks for this one
Thank both of you so much for all the great videos!! They have made a big difference in my bone and muscle health.
I soooooo needed to see this - I have been having trouble with my hips and legs - cannot thank you enough!!❤🧡💛
Hello Bob and Brad you have helped me big time and saved me money thanks Barry New Zealand
Have A WONDERFUL WEEKEND Bob.!!💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👏🏻💪🏼🤗
Timing is everything! I’ve had pain in glute med (right side) for some time. Already feels better!
Thanks guys! These are awesome!
Thank you so much! You guys are so wonderful !
As usual your tapes are so helpful thank you so much you guys are awesome you're an awesome team
I need this like you can’t believe! Thank you!
Many thanks to you fellows for all I've learned about caring for my own body.
Lovely video, great exercises, i struggle with glute medius and minimus, mine switch off after a while when i run, these exercises may help me , thanks guys!
I’m expecting and this was exactly what I needed.
This is a good one. Really good for run warm up and cool down too.
Careful for some people who are overly TFL-dominant. Their TFL might be doing the work rather than the glute medius. Good cue is to keep a finger or thumb on the TFL and make sure it’s not firing

These are great...and also timely (for me, anyway). The last one, I did on one foot “tippy-toed”, since I don’t have stairs inside and it is dark out.😁 Thank you, both! And Bob, glad to see you doing so well and managing your challenges. Prayers are being answered.
Just what I needed! Tore my glute medius muscle about 6 years ago and started physical therapy for the second time in February. I will add a couple of these to my exercise routine. Thank you!

I have pain in this muscle after being on my feet at work every day. Turns out I tend put my weight on one hip, and this was straining the 'stabilizing' muscles in my glutes.
God bless you guys your tips are absolutely God gift to me.keep laughing and send your tips with great energy. 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Awesome, Thankyou. Nice fellas too.
Thank you for explaining this. I have been to a series physical therapy sessions twice. Think I'm siting too much. Both hips now have tight IT bands.
I have such bad leg,, hip, and back pain. MRI is fine. I know its my muscles. I'm going to try this!
That 3rd one has to be super challenging. Definitely will try! THANK YOU

Hi B&B, the first standing exercise, lateral flexion of the hip rolling affecting the medial fibers of Gluth medius Gluth minimus the actual rounding off of that hand demonstration, showing where this muscle begins and ends has properties of internal and external rotation that also need to be challenged as a resultant exercise.
Thanks!

Thank you!!
I had hip replacement surgery 4 months ago and before that, I wasn’t exercising my guis and kegs because it was painful. Consequently, my quad, calf and glute muscles became so weak, I still couldn’t walk without a cane, and couldn’t go up and down stairs without holding on to the railing for dear life as well as using the cane. I’m excited to start doing these exercises….you explain them so clearly, so I’m hoping to get those glutes stronger so I can toss my cane!!
Thanks Boyz....👍
Thanks for sharing 🙏❤️
My PT said my butt was flatter than board and it adds to my sciatic pain
I have picked out 3 of the 5 I plan to do. Should i do these everyday or just a few times per week? Thank you so much for your videos!!!

The general rule is to do repetitions until you honestly can't continue, wait 3 minutes and repeat two more sets. Leave your self two days to recover. Don't forget to have a good protein intake.
Are these exercizes safe for people with osteoporisis? Thank you for your channel, I love you two and Sara Meeks!

Guys you are real fun.
r these good to rehab and re-strenghtening if i have tibial/knee tendinitis and sore at quadriceps? (i´m 38, 8 months with these pains that don´t go away neither with fisiotherapy) thx a lot :))
Hello BND your second floor exercise the moment to the axis that you were trying to manipulate is incorrect. The motion you are demonstrating is lateral flexion of the spine with secondary hip abduction, adduction
Is it okay to do these if I have a partially torn gluteus medius tendon insertion?
Does Side hip abduction work if its help done by others? I mean the muscle will be strengthen if its moved by others because I can't do on my own.
Can i do this exercises with hernia at lower back?
It's the intro song for me

can we do these with spondyliothesis?
When doing the excerise on the floor raising your leg...are you raising the side that is injured. In other words I have an issue on my right glute medius, so I would lay on my left side raising my right leg...correct
My sciatica has reduced 80% within days of basic glute exercises!!!
I took a Hard Fall to My Tailbone/Hips on Concrete a few Weeks Ago. I Am Just Now Gitting Back To Wiggling Better. Those Booty Bits are Definetly Connected to Alot of Other Bits... Please All Protect Yo Arse !!♡♡
my problem is stiffness..... can i do these same ?
Be sure and slam the thumbs up 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
How do we safely stretch after doing these exercises? What stretches should we do?

I like to sit and cross one leg over the other and bend over gently. On the floor pulls nicely on that burning muscle. That’s my go to.
I tear partialy my gluteus medius after Hip replacement and now I am sufering a lot. Already 3 months past after the injury only little improvement. IT destroy me mentaly.
Please send the best strength exercise and both both side sitica please strength exercise and flexibility
These are great. Any idea why with the final exercise the muscles on the dangling leg side are the ones getting the biggest workout with mainly the muscles around the iliac crest? Am I doing the exercise wrong or is there some other issue?
When I exercise on DOING Lower abs...My Hips hurt inside..And I feel that Something is tying my viens ..

These exercises are great but my leg doesn’t want to move when I’m lying on my side it doesn’t want to move, why is that?
I was helping a friend move, carrying boxes up and down stairs so I got a good glute workout without trying, and lo and behold, my balance is better just going up and down stairs now. I can go one foot to each step instead of one foot down, then the other on the same step, repeat Oh well, I guess I will exercise after all. These look like what I need.
The last exercise you did standing on the stairs is it okay to hold a dumbbell in one hand to add resistance???

POOR SAM!! What did you guys do to him?
So much pain with that bent-knee side plank in my piriformis...
What if you can't get down on the floor
I can only feel the first exercise on the side of my thigh. This is also feels like it’s already overworked. Why can’t I feel it in my glutes? I have gluten apathy, and it should definitely be burning right now for how weak they are
Impossible when your joints are bone-on-bone and locked
👏🙏
What can you do if you don’t have a staircase? What if you have a structural leg length discrepancy (17mm)?
@AjayTiwari-en9nz
Жыл бұрын
Leg length discrepancy is most likely because of lateral pelvic tilt, where one hip bone is slightly elevated compared to the other. The result of this tilt is a tight QL of the elevated side and a weaker hamstring on the same side. The key is to stretch the QL on the side with the elevation and strengthening the hamstring. Most of the times these two muscles, if not properly positioned, can cause your glutus medius muscle to go weak. Try working on all three, and you should see results in 3 weeks. I had the same problem!
