EP 08 Growing the Glutes, Becoming More Scientific, & Making Your Passion Your Career | Feat. Bret Contreras, aka "The Glute Guy"

On today's episode of EMBody radio, I interview Bret Contreras, aka "The Glute Guy." Bret is one of the leaders in strength and conditioning research/application, particularly in the realm of glute training and glute development. Bret holds a PhD, has conducted research of his own, published dozens of articles, written numerous books and ebooks, and is well-known for the hip thrust exercise. Today, we talk about: -How he turned his hobby into his full-time career -How the every day person can become more scientific -Why Bret took such an interest in glute development (this makes for a funny story) -Glute training, effective warmups, how frequently you should train glutes, whether squats and deadlifts make for "square" glutes, and more! -Maximum recoverable volume (MRV) -Fixing left/right side imbalances -Maintaining strength while injured -Advantages to different training styles (bodybuilding, powerlifting, athletes, etc) -So much more!
