45 Hypers are the best glute exercise that never makes it into the Big 5 (thrusts, squats, Romanians, Bulgarians, kickbacks).

Bret Contreras “The Glute Guy” PhD, CSCS on Instagram: "All the glute muscles have varying fiber directions and subdivisions, so we should be doing a variety of kickbacks and abduction movements to effectively hit all the fibers. So variety is good. Got it? Great. That said, I think 99% of influencers just make up what subdivisions of the glutes are being worked. Some fabricate the entire glute anatomy. Others just attribute wrong regions to the exercise. By appreciating functional anatomy and e
