In the meantime...

What I'm hearing is the person that wants to grow their glutes should be doing those three types of exercises, typically those three types of exercises at least twice a week and perhaps three times a week with the understanding that the third session in that week may have to be at slightly less intensity that Friday session before the weekend if you really beat up the glutes on your previous two glute days.

But training your glutes twice a week might be sufficient.

There's this sort of understanding that compound and isolation movements are important.

Wait, where is the bar for, let's assume someone doesn't have access to a hip thruster machine and they're using the barbell placed over the

Oh, onto their upper thighs.

Yeah.

Ooh.

Excellent.

Thank you.

Those are very helpful tips.

And I'll just add that

The glute medius exercise.

We'll put a link to that specific timestamp where you showed me the movement.

It requires no equipment.

I will say that adding those in,

even though I now realize I wasn't doing them exactly right.

But adding those in a few years ago,

on the suggestion of Jeff Cavaliere from AthleanX, resolved what I thought was a back pain issue completely.

An ongoing nagging back issue that would leave me feeling completely debilitated, folded over, often from sitting too much or even from certain mistakes made in training and getting glute medius stronger, resolved that.
