Glutes Roll

6th Secondary -- Glutes Roll
Use this SMR exercise to address the muscles in the back of your hips. 

You probably won't notice knots in your buns when you are just walking around, but when you slowly roll through this tissue, you'll find them!

The gluteus maximus (and many of the other posterior hip muscles) is involved in any movement using the hips. When one or more of your glutes is dysfunctional, proper hip function is compromised.

You will notice a 'lightness' with body movements if you release any knots in your glutes.

If you have lower back issues you should begin this technique by lying flat on the floor FIRST, then lift your hips to get the roller underneath you (instead of sitting on the roller and lying back).

Be sure to post your questions and comments below. We want to provide the best instruction to help you recover from your workouts.
