Here are 12 gluteus maximus exercises you should be doing to isolate and strengthen your glute muscles. Squats and lunges are great compound leg exercises, but they ARE NOT glute specific exercises…
The glutes or gluteus maximus (which is the primary glute muscle) is responsible for mostly TWO movements…hip extension and hip rotation (internally and externally). Many people training their butt are constantly doing squats, lunges and a ton of other « leg » exercises that are of course great exercises to do but aren’t necessarily the best at hitting those weak, flat glute muscles.
The gluteus maximus is the largest and strongest of the glute muscles. All 3 glute muscles together form the largest and strongest muscles in the body. Think of a sprinter, running back, gymnast or pretty much any EXPLOSIVE athlete you can think of….they all have larger than average butts. And that’s a good thing. Without strong and developed glutes, they would quickly lose their edge in their sport.
The gluteus maximus extends the hip and allows our legs to rotate inward and outward which is essential for all athletic movement. But in order to isolate and train JUST the glute muscles, you must perform exercises that also take away the legs and allow the glutes to perform on their own.
All of the models and competitors performing these gluteus maximus exercises spend A LOT of time doing some or all of these 12 movements to help give them their amazing glutes. A healthy combination of these movements is the best cure for a weak, flat butt.
