I’ll be the first to admit it – I spend way too much time sitting down. Between long workdays at my laptop and evenings curled up on the sofa, my glutes don’t exactly get the attention they deserve on a day-to-day basis. Sure, I'll make sure to include some glute-focused exercises when I'm strength training at the gym, but I still wind up with lingering ache in my right glute at the end of each day.
Be it a problem with my hip flexor or a problem with the glute itself, I'm not sure – but when I heard that a weak or “switched off” glute could be behind everything from back niggles to poor posture, my curiosity was piqued.
