Man Balances on a Blue Bosu Ball in a Gym, Holding a Dumbbell in One Hand with the Other Arm Extended for Balance During a Balance Training Exercise

Glute strength: why it matters for runners, lifters and everyday movement

Your glutes help you stand, climb stairs, run and keep your pelvis steady. When they’re weak, other muscles often take on extra load. Bridges with a pause, single-leg work and step-ups are simple ways to build strength and control.

Start with bodyweight, progress slowly, and get technique checked if you have knee or back pain. Read more about starting strength training safely, or book a session in Norwest.
