Gluteus Maximus Power 🍑⚡
Ella sprinting after a ball = pure hip extension—snow edition
Sprinting forces the gluteus maximus to do its main job: drive the leg back and through with power. Add snow, and the demand skyrockets.
Fun facts + important info:
🧠 The glute max is your body’s primary engine for propulsion—not squats alone
❄️ Unstable surfaces (like snow) increase glute activation to prevent slipping
⚡ Strong hip extension offloads the knees and low back
🔁 If glutes underperform, hamstrings and lumbar spine usually overwork
Explosive hips = safer, stronger movement—no matter the surface.
