Kneeling Squat Glute Activation with Band
This is one of the best glute activation exercises I've tried. I actually felt like my glutes were going to cramp up. After just one set, my hips felt a lot lighter more free and my pelvis was in a more neutral state.
The glutes extend the hips, right? In this exercise you extend the knees against a band, similar to a leg extension machine. How does that activate the glutes?
(I haven't tried the exercise yet, but I can't imagine how the band resistance adds anything to the level of glut activation.)
Actually, this when done with weight on your shoulders is an old powerlifting assistance exercise I learned from Louie Simmons. I got the idea for activation from that.
If you flip it around and imagine it on the floor it will look like a modified glute bridge. But with the kneeling mechanism, you pretty much eliminate the hamstrings that can sometimes dominate a glute bridge.
The bands when high on the hips add quite a bit of resistance to that final hip extension that the glutes create.
Alls I can say is try it....it will make you a believer.
Rossco, I love that exercise and have been doing it with weights for a while...I like the band concept and need to give it a try.....but what type of band are you using? Seems like mine are all the wrong size. Let me know!, thanks bro (you heading back to palmer this summer for homecoming?, buettenback and I are.....you and trato should too!
Toby, Yea...the weighted version is nice. I use it in progression with some of my athletes. The most intense is jumping up from it and then landing and jumping again.
I think were thinking about it. Hooker Bill may be flying in as well. Trato I think was planning on it. We'll see, my one year anniversary is in the middle, so have to get permission...haha.
I was heartbroken because I had a very small penis, not nice to satisfy a woman, I had so many relationships cut off because of my situation, I have used so many products which i found online but none could offer me the help I searched for. I saw some comments about this specialist called Dr Moses Buba and decided to email him at buba.herbalmiraclemedicine@gmail.com so I decided to give his herbal product a try. i emailed him and he got back to me, he gave me some comforting words with his herbal pills for Penis Enlargement, Within 14 days of it, i began to feel the enlargement of my penis, " and now it just 2 weeks of using his products my penis is about 9 inches longer and i am so happy, contact DR Moses Buba now via email buba.herbalmiraclemmedicine@gmail.com or his Whatsapp number +2349060529305 or call me for more details +15019914802 . may God reward you for your good work. HE ALSO RENDER THE FOLLOWING ........1. BRING YOUR EX BACK........... 2. LOTTERY SPELL......... 3. PREGNANCY SPELL ..........4. WEAK ERECTION ............5. POOR EJACULATION.............

Glenn, Sorry about that, I thought I published it last Friday! It's up now.

Toby, They are
EFS Pro Light Short Bands. They have them at Elite for like 5 bucks.
I think I will order some other strengths as well. I'm finding a lot of fun little uses for these suckers.
