Thank you for connecting the fashionable backside to the back half of life. While I’m a fellow weights enthusiast because of a sheer love of the sport (CrossFit), I know deep down it’s also thanks to Greg Glassman’s brainwashing, speaking to these truths about functional fitness and longevity. There’s no greater feeling than being strong.
Having strong glutes is SUPER important for our hips, too. After being diagnosed with arthritis in my hips, my PT has me doing some other simple- but effective!- band exercises. Clamshells, first and foremost, really helped to alleviate the pain. Additionally, putting a band around your feet, and then doing some lunges (out to the side, then back at a diagonal, and then straight back) work your 🍑 more than you’d imagine!!

My motivation is to look better in my Fleur du Mal now AND be able to lift my carry on when I’m 80!

The dreaded banded lunges! Yes glute activation exercises are a killer.
