Your Glutes DON'T Turn Off ("Activation" Myth Busting | Science-Based)

Are your glutes turned off? Probably not, let's explain.
You may have been told they are, this is usually referred to as gluteal amnesia, deadbutt syndrome, or sleepy glutes. In reality, these don't occur - at least not the way people explain it.

As we highlight in the video, unless you've suffered an extreme injury, your glutes turn on. However, it's entirely possible you don't have a high perceptual connection, you may not do activities that demand them fully, or you also may not use them to their fullest during activities.

We review some of the major research on this topic in this video, going through concepts around inhibition, either from the hip flexors or through general arthrogenic inhibition.
