hip exercises

A strong lower body means having powerful hips. Powerful hips is synonymous with glute activation. There are many exercises available, like a hip thrust, that are ideal for activating that area. The exercise has a similar movement pattern to a glute bridge.

Strong, functional hips are beneficial both in and out of the gym. Powerful hips are the driving force that connects a strong upper and lower body.

The hip complex is made up of approximately 17 muscles groups. These muscles fall into one of four groups based on how they attach to the hip joint.
