I am one of your most ardent fans and I have a membership in Athlean-X. i recommend your website to everyone I know at the gym. However, on THIS video, i wish you had focused the camera on the area of your body that you were helping us build. (The camera needed to go lower. Plus the banner across the bottom of the screen prevented me from seeing what you were doing with the hips. ) I really needed this exercise as I had hip replacement surgery 6 months ago and I am told that I need to strengthen my gluteus medius, Thanks for all your wonderful work and effort in teaching us!

When I try this, there is not that much movement in my pelvis, I don't feel my gluteus medius, and it feels more like my back is rotating than actually going up and down. I do really focus on the relaxing, and then pulling back up. But with you it looks like there is a differential of like 10 cm. With me, not even half. I do know my one leg is a bit shorter than the other. Does this matter? It looks so darned easy, but I just cannot get it right and because of that, frankly, it's annoying like hell.

How do you know if you're contracting just your glute medius though? If you've gained imbalances over the years there's other muscles that have grown to compensate the weakness. For those who haven't been using the glute medius at all surely you need an excercise that will completely isolate it as when they try and do this excercise they will still use the other muscles they're not supposed to.

The lower back pain isn't a real problem for me since it goes away as soon as I start doing back excercises but what really makes me squirm is the reoccuring pain in the middle and upper back, know any excersises that can remedy this? I even have big upper back muscles compared to others, all the back pain is probably because of constant sitting in colledge and home.

i gave this exercise a try today, but i have to say, i didnt feel any burn in any part of my core. maybe my technique was off, but this felt a lot more like a leg exercise to me. my legs were definitely burning. i guess i will add this exercise to my leg routine. if there is an added benefit for the core. great. But as i said, definitely didnt feel my core working.

I love your videos Steve but I would really to know a clear answer of can you get bigger muscles by doing lighter weight higher reps or heavier weight low reps. Witch one is best if your looking for say a bigger chest or shoulders I heard the other day on the internet at to get big arms use a 15 pound dumbbell hi reps every night before bed. True of false

i ve been doing this lately here and there. i saw it sonewhere before and just thought to do it regularly. it may have been this vid last yr. i think it has been helping a lil. i wish you would do a vid with a few more lower back rehab or recovery type of exercises similar to this. maybe a few more spots that are culprits we are typically unaware of.
