Dr. Bret Contreras: How to Build Bigger Glutes & Legs

Описание: My guest is Dr. Bret Contreras, PhD, CSCS, a leading expert in glute training. We cover key strategies for maximizing glute growth, explore the anatomy and function of the glutes, and break down effective exercises like the hip thrust.

We discuss how to structure training programs based on individual goals, the importance of prioritizing recovery, and common mistakes that hinder progress. Additionally, we examine how physiological differences in women’s training should inform program design.

Finally, we explore the importance of staying adaptable to evolving scientific research and optimizing training methods for better results. Whether or not glute development is your primary focus, this conversation provides actionable insights for achieving consistent progress in strength training.
