Your Glute Glow-Up Guide: 3 Mistakes Holding You Back

You’ve been showing up, doing squats, and pushing through the burn— but your glutes still aren’t popping like they should? You might be making one (or more) of these mistakes:

1. Not Lifting Heavy Enough
Bodyweight squats only get you so far. Your glutes need resistance to grow. Start tracking your weights and gradually increase them every few weeks.

2. No Mind-Muscle Connection
Going through the motions isn’t enough. You need to squeeze, pause, and feel every rep. Control is key.

3. Skipping Glute Activation
If you sit a lot, your glutes might be inactive. Start every leg day with banded kickbacks, clamshells, or hip bridges to wake them up.

Bonus Tip: Give your glutes 2–3 dedicated days a week and prioritize recovery. My “Build-A-Booty” program is designed exactly for this—with the science and structure to get you real results.
