Here's a little throwback article of when I did booty exercises in unique ways. Around this time, I was coming out of physical therapy school and realized that I myself was suffering from long-term chronic low back pain. One of the biggest things I noticed, or should I say the smallest, was that my glutes were very underachieving and super small. I remember one of my classmates, even commenting on it once and then breaking my heart :( I always wanted to have that big booty.

So, after focusing on lower back strength and placing a huge emphasis on isolating the glutes while relaxing my low back at other times, I was able to get myself to where I am today. I have almost no back pain ever and when I do, it's usually because I push the muscles in that region to their limits. Basically, any pain I have nowadays is no longer a result of neuropathic Chronic Low Back Pain. Check it out, because these were the days when I really started growing my glutes and having less back pain.

Low back pain on lower body days?

Try adding this unique angled glute exercise into your glute/leg day routine: The Pendulum Hip Extension.

There are so many different ways to hit glutes in the gym. From glute bridges to deadlifts there exist a lot of heavy compound exercises you can do to zone in on your tush. If you're looking for a more targeted exercise which is less strenuous I recommend these guys.

The quadruped position lights up the core and keeps your pelvis from overextending during the working leg hip extension! This can help with lumbopelvic dissociation, something that typically improves outcomes for low back pain, ESPECIALLY in those who lift heavy sh!t.
