Comprising the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus, these muscles support walking, running, and lifting activities. However, sedentary lifestyles often lead to gluteal weakness, contributing to chronic pain, poor posture, and injuries. Symptoms include lower back pain, hip instability, and decreased performance. Proper rehabilitation with exercises like clamshells and bridges is essential for recovery, reducing the risk of complications such as hip impingement or knee collapse. Preventive measures include regular glute-focused exercises and maintaining good posture. With advanced diagnostics like MAI-Motion™ at facilities like MSK Doctors, strengthening the glutes is streamlined for effective recovery and injury prevention, tailored to individual needs. Enhance your movement and health by addressing glute weakness early on.
