Really nice ideas ... I like this kinda invisible training just standing, sitting ... did this myself and the benefits are astonishing! Thanks again Matt!
I started using the glutes engaging while driving ages ago. I simply flex the glutes when turning, always in the direction of the turn. It not only keeps the glutes awake, it also ever so slightly elevates the body in the respective direction, which prevents the uncomfortable sideways lean while turning.
Really nice. I never paid attention to my glutes when squatting. I tried engaging them in the deep squat and didn't feel much though. However, when i forcefully engage them while moving up it almost felt like i had some spring in my leg and made the movement so much more powerful
I'm still working on my hip mobility from years of squats and lunges without working and stretching the flexors. Doing a lot of resistance band clamshells and bridges. Hopefully everything will get full range of motion soon so I can start deep squatting again after 20 years of stiffness.
Thanks so much for this information. I've been lifting weights wrong for years. I don't know what I was working out but it was exercised on for years lol
We squat like that every day Been using a rebounder for daily periodic workouts. It's the most efficient exercise I've discovered. Unique health and mental benefits.
I'm guilty of shutting off the glutes at the bottom of a squat. This gives me something to work on. Thanks!
Forgot about this. Helped massively with my kneepain during squats. Wide horse stance really helped my mind muscle connection during squats

Great timing! I’ve been working on activating my glutes the past few weeks.
Great video. Love the way this was filmed. Right to the point and very informative!
Great information I will put into action when I work out tomorrow. Thanks.

Incredible, thanks for the tips

Can you talk more about what those unique benefits are? I’ve been considering getting one. Thank you.
Great video - thank you!
Hey Matt, when engaging your glutes, should you be trying to squeeze them together? What is a good cue?
If you really want to fire the glutes up in a deep squat try boxer hops, if they didn't react first they will after a half a round of them 👍
I need to work on my glutes. I’m flatter than a pancake
