I started engaging my glutes while I was running. Omg it took so much pressure off my calves/shins. I tried it today. I was able drive my legs better while I was running and helped increase my cadence. I got a good 8k in today. Once I felt my form breaking down I stopped my run and jumped on a stair stepper and some more cardio. This is the BEST VIDEO my calves where not on fire today for once and I felt great.
Yeah I ended up with really nasty posterior shin splints because of hip drop an not engaging glutes. I wish they taught us about the importance posture and how to run in schools as kids!
@@CrowBag me too. 55 years of tight/bad calves leading to Achilles operation. 2 days of engaging the glutes and I feel a serene balance never felt before. And power.
This video solved a 3 year mystery for me. One slight adjustment and all of the sudden my hamstrings aren’t as taxed as they were. Can’t thank you enough!
Excited to hear that you're explaining these movements as a skill and not just a strength issue - focusing on position and the layers of the movement pattern.
I'm so annoyed at the simplicity of this adjustment and how much BETTER my form is since implementing the tips in this video into my running. Like another commenter mentioned, my shins/calves/hams are no longer aching and exhausted after my trail runs. Took a week's worth of runs to really nail down the neutral "tilt" but my gosh when you get it you get it! Thank you so much for this information. And to everyone else, happy running!
Tip#2 makes so much sense. Now I know why my lower back hurts after doing squats!! It also make sense because when I switched to front squat I had no problem with lower back. I was doing it all wrong. Thank you. I will share with our Facebook group.
I watched this video few years ago when I thought I was going to be a good runner lol. Of course I didn't absorb any knowledge from this super nutrition dense video, so after knee injury due to my weak glutes I completely quit running for 3 years. Now I am watching this again, surprisingly found out there are ton of good information that I watched but missed. Thank you Coach Nate, I hope I can slowly build up my skills and train up weak muscles and slowly slowly start to run again this summer.
This video had great timing! My hamstrings are suffering specifically on one side and after doing some digging I believe is either my glutes & hip strength OR the position I am running in! I just started running a few months ago and I am so glad to have found your channel!
I'm assuming you needed to focus on learning forward as well? I know its 4 years but how did it work? The glute activation/running position change. I'm getting onee pain on the back side of leg now after a few months starting. I am optimistic these two will help me..I do MAF so to keep heart rate that low I need to run 11-14 m miles depending if its 95 degrees and whenever I do a threshold run I dont have the pain so seems to me for me anyway I know how to use what I need to when pace is right. But I cant run that pace or I'm training anaerobic not aerobic.. lots more biking for now! Gunna try these two tips tonight would he crazy to eliminate the pain just like that!
Thank you for this. After years of suffering without understanding why my glute muscle has quit me, I finally feel like I just might be a runner again ♥️
loved this video! it targets exactly most of my running problems. I'm a shuffle runner but I never knew why. Now i can see hip instability, anterior pelvic tilt and non firing glutes. thank you I will do these exercises and watch this again!
So helpful. I’ve been more aware of my running technique lately - glute engagement and stride which has improved my running power but I also have an issue with hip stability which I’m working on so this was a really timely and useful video.
This video had so many good tips as I wanted to know after my run, my lower back kills me but now I know why. Cant wait to get back out there to try your new tips to see if they work.
Gosh, what a great video. Thanks for making all subtle distinctions make that make difference between fully functional or just along for the ride. Can't Thank You enough.
This is really helpful! I'm recovering from bulging discs and torn hamstrings; lazy form, I believe, played a role. This is super helpful as I recover and focus on proper stability and glue engagement!!
Great video coach Nate. Previously I could run 12 miles but I have IT band syndrome and can't shake it for 5 years. I have tried everything and think it's a muscle activation issue. I'll try these exercises to see if I can train my body. I don't know
I found this very helpful...I was strengthening my glutes but still needed to actually understand how i should be using them...been a quad-dominant runner my whole life
Love this video. I’m going to make this my go to video , I’m a masters runner who has recurring knee problems, I recently ran a half marathon and was doing well until mile 8 when my knees started to hurt man, l was forced to walk the next 5 miles, Thanks for the tips l am going to follow them. Appreciate it. Your explanation s on how to do them was clear. I like that Thanks again.
Wow! What a great video! Here is why I say that: not only you explain what is to be achieved but it’s benefit in improving the way you move when running which translate to more speed. Your video targets to people who Thank you for sharing You really got my interest! 👍👍👍
Love your videos man, well explained. I am studying Pre-PT right now and training for my first marathon. Keep getting left lateral knee pain, testing these exercises I could feel weakness in my right gluteus major and minor. Looking forward to incorporating them into running each week to see if it helps the weakness, thanks!

The butt squeeze works. I noticed my low back hurting after a few miles of running so I did the butt squeeze and the posture change makes a huge difference!!
A lot of thanks for this video and all these explanations about the glutes! I was very interested about how I could train these muscles, and thanks to you, I Know it yet! ( I've discovered this channel recently, and I'm watching all your videos one following other !!! :) )
I am super struggling activating my glute medius in particular. I’ve searched all over your videos and I’ve improved a lot, but my knees still knock! Please help!!!!
Wow - thank you for the video. Serious question: So should I be squeezing my butt while I run? Like the entire time? Or after awhile do you learn to maintain good pelvis posture without actively squeezing?
Excellent stuff! Quick question: How much should I engage my foot to push off? I feel that I should push off to aggressively with the foot, but instead focus only on the push off from the glute. Is that correct? Thanks much! Toney
Whoa this might actually fix my issues. I currently have left medial meniscus pain along with lower right sciatic. And I feel like they’re connected. My right hip is always out of whack, causing my left leg to be “longer” due to hip roll which makes my left foot overpronate. If I can focus on hips and glutes like this it might help all of the above.
I would like to see a video on what and how should a runner eat. I am newly Whole Food Plant Based and I really want to become a stronger and faster long distance runner. Also a video on increasing stamina. Thank you
Hey there! Sports nutritionist Elizabth Inpyn has a new video on our channel every week to discuss all aspects of fueling for athletes- search "nutrition" on our channel! And here's a video on increasing running distance --> th-cam.com/video/vJiRxVlUwIA/w-d-xo.html
Hi Nate, Great video. Just what I need to improve my running posture. So the bit around towards the end of the run when my body is all tired and my legs slump and so on, do you mean that - my glutes have to hold my hip and continue to maintain my running posture ? even if my legs are aching ?
Hi, Thanks for sharing. Just double checking I always thought the squat is more knee dominant and less hip hinge especially with the shines breaking parallel. Am I wrong 😳
how long do you think it will take to seeing these results... i have hip pain in around 10 miles on my long runs and all things point to lack of glute engagement :( i feel like i have to start again over the winter so will add these into the routine.
I’m going to be doing my first half marathon this January. I used to workout more and really had my glutes growing. I want to keep them growing and train for my run, can I lift before a run?
Lifting (such as squatting and deadlifting) can be great for your running! Generally, it's recommended to lift after a run or on a dedicated strength day.
Is there anything else to try? I don’t think my glutes work even walking. Cause I get a lower back pump just walking around. Not pain but like my low back is over working
I started engaging my glutes while I was running. Omg it took so much pressure off my calves/shins. I tried it today. I was able drive my legs better while I was running and helped increase my cadence. I got a good 8k in today. Once I felt my form breaking down I stopped my run and jumped on a stair stepper and some more cardio. This is the BEST VIDEO my calves where not on fire today for once and I felt great.
My calves take all the pressure while running but I’m still not sure how to properly activate my glutes

One of the best videos I've ever watched in terms of exercise demonstration - this video will be great for people with poor kinesthetic awareness
It's amazing the difference one small subtle repositioning makes!
Your explanations and descriptions of movements are the best I've found online. Thanks Coach Nate!
Thanks so much! Glad we can help :)
Wow the background looks so calm and relaxing!!! Great tips thanks

Glad to have found this video. Most helpful for my running problems. I do have strong gluteal muscles, but didn’t know how to use them. LOL
Posterior pelvic tilt with hips forward - everyone wants it, but difficult to achieve. Thanks!!

Exactly what I need. Thank you
Big thanks my man, definitly adding those exercices in my trainings!!
Best BEST video explaining this subject!! Thank you!!
Nice video!! The only thing I would add/ suggest is that you do all these WITHOUT shoes... Yo ll get a much better result
Wow - thank you for the video. Serious question: So should I be squeezing my butt while I run? Like the entire time? Or after awhile do you learn to maintain good pelvis posture without actively squeezing?
No such thing as a silly question- you will get engagement of the glut without the need to actively squeeze
