When your glutes decide to clock out—too much sitting, not enough movement, and boom, they’re on strike. It’s super common, especially in women over 40, thanks to hormonal changes, long hours sitting, and the lack of focused glute work. Weak glutes aren’t just a cosmetic thing. They can cause: ⚠️ Hip pain ⚠️ Lower back pain ⚠️ Messed-up posture Here’s the good news: 2025 is the year we fix it. No more excuses. 1️⃣ Standing Knee Drives (against the wall) Press into the wall for support, drive your knee up, and engage your core and glutes. 2️⃣ Monster Step with Knee Circles to Squat Step out, drive your k

23K views · 1.7K reactions | If you’ve ever had hip pain or weakness, you’ve undoubtedly heard of the infamous clamshell. I’m not knocking the clam, but I do think it’s often performed incorrectly or not progressed enough. While the simple clam might be helpful in early phases of rehab, I like adding progressions like this into the mix. Prone clamshell: allows your pelvis to stabilize on the table so that the upper end of your pelvis can’t upwardly rotate and “cheat” by using more hip flexors Side plank clamshell: really targets the hip facing DOWN, creating a challenge for the lateral glutes and hip rotators as they stabilize the pelvis against gravity Thanks for watching, love u bye | Dr. Roni Glassman PT, DPT

29K views · 1.7K reactions | We run on one leg, so we should progress to training on one leg⬇️ But if a single leg squat is difficult or doesn’t look great, the goal should be to work up to one: 1. Use a wall for support, especially if you struggle to load the posterior chain 2. Unilateral glute max and trunk stability is SO important, I love the single knee to chest bridge for this 3. Any sort of single leg stability where your form looks great even if that means a mini squat, static standing or using support If you’re ready to run stronger and want to strength train with running specific exercises, go through the Runners Complete Program (linked in bio) | Lisa Mitro, Physical Therapist for Runners

47K views · 1.1K reactions | A nip in your hip??.. well here’s a tip! First clear the space by using a hip flexor stretch, make sure to move and twist in the position and look for any differences side to side! After that grab a resistance band and attach it to something sturdy then, lie down and wake up your hip flexors by pulling up, your abductors by opening out and your adductors by pulling inwards! Do plenty of reps each side for around 5 minutes then retest a movement that you previously felt the nip in When you feel things improving keep it up daily for a while until it stops bugging you! 💪 #hipimpingement #hippain | Tom Morrison
