A Workout Does the Body Good

Sometimes, I am in aw of how some people look.  What striking features.  There dedication and diligence in pursuit a masterpiece (The Body).  Pure and Natural. Strong and Powerful.  Hard and Tough, built to last.  Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work. (Aristole).  You do your best work if you do a job that makes you happy. (Bod Ross)  When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt. (Henry J. Kaiser).  Well stated Henry, their work speaks for itself.

Redefining Glutes!

A perfect way to start your day is to work those glutes.  You got it.


The gluteus maximus and gluteus medius are two large muscles in the buttocks that contribute greatly to forward and upward propulsion, and also to lateral or sideways motion. The gluteus maximus, along with the hamstrings, are recruited in any forward bending movements involving hip extension, resulting in the thigh or top of the pelvis moving backward, such as in step-ups and stiff-legged deadlifts, good mornings, squats, lunges, or traditional deadlifts.

The role of the gluteus medius, on the other hand, is to help steady the pelvis so it does not rotate downwards or sag when the opposing side is lifted or not supported with the other leg. It also assists with lateral movement away from the midline of the body, i.e. moving the thigh outward with hip straight. It lies on the side of the hip directly above the larger, “meatier” gluteus maximus. The gluteus medius can be somewhat neglected in the quadriceps-dominant activities of running, which primarily involves forward movement in a straight line, and in cycling. Sometimes knee pain can be caused by overusing quadriceps muscles when glute 
muscles are not “carrying their proper burden.”  Article entitled, "Targeting the Gluteus," by C. Schurman, MS, CSCS.
