Want to feel your glutes and hamstrings more during squats/deadlifts? Try these! 1️⃣ Hip Hinge: Start by hinging slightly at your hips at the start. Think about pushing your hips back as if sitting into a chair. This movement emphasizes the glutes and hamstrings. 2️⃣ Sumo Position: Place your feet wider than shoulder-width apart with toes pointed outward to promote greater glute engagement. 3️⃣ Mind-Muscle Connection: Focus on squeezing your glutes as you rise from the squat to enhance muscle activation. Notes: *If you want to maximize STRENGTH, this likely isn’t the most ideal position. I squat much more upright with a traditional barbell back squat. BOTH are valuable. I do both. *If you are more quad dominant like me, these are a great addition to your strength program to engage your posterior chain more. *Positioning will vary based on your anatomical levers. Let me know if you try em! 🍑💪 #SquatTips #GluteActivation #posteriorchain #Strength #strengthtraining
