All I do is squat with the bar and I'm good to go
Don't know what else I could do
Julian Smith
goblet squats
Caleb Bell
Have your gymbro help you with some rear glute spreads. He might have to lube you up, but its excellent for warming up.
Adam Hall
Slow bodyweight or empty bar squats until my legs are warm.
Jackson Morgan
i foam roll and stretch, then do like 10 warm up sets
Jayden Murphy
Alan Thrall has some good videos on squats
for butt activation you just need to clench everything, like you're trying to stop somebody from entering
Brandon Ross
Just drive go the gym by bike for like 6km, that gets thing just warm enough to start squatting with
Thomas Powell
Just do warm up squats to get use to the movement and form.
Christopher Martin
>not warming up to lmao2pl8
Dominic Nelson
i have no idea what this activation buzzword garbage is, if you somehow came out of the bottom of a squat and now are standing, your glutes activated
just warm up with the bar and then a few sets pyramiding up to your first working set, like the book tells you
Jayden Ramirez
>glute activation
Fuck off retard
best advice.
Your squat doesnt suck because your 'glutes arent activating', you're just weak
Grayson Diaz
Not necessarily. If your glutes are dormant, you’ll use mostly your quads. Chances are, you probably don’t even use your glutes, huh.
Luis Rogers
yeah i squat 380kg without my glutes
Daniel Garcia
lighter squats
Jordan Evans
You dont squat that much. If you did, you would recognize proper stretching and warmups. Dumb dyel
Ryder Gomez
Yes I do?

And yes I obviouslu understand stretching and warmups. I'm saying that you cannot perform the function of the glutes in any other way. They do not need 'activating'
Samuel Ward
the glute activation things i do are banded frog pumps, banded clams, donkey kicks and banded fire hydrants
i think the banded frog pumps are the best! they burn my ass real good before i lift. it definitely makes a difference :)
Parker Evans
Activating = stretching.
Brayden Kelly
When I do leg curls and my hamstrings get exhausted I fell like my ass activates pretty strong.
Nathan Hill
Please tell me how stretching a muscle activates it.
Also tell me why it's important at all. Are your muscles turned off?
Christopher Price
your glutes cannot be dormant, if they were hip extension would not occur
you'll always use mostly your quads in a squat, because all squats (yes, even low-bar) are by their very nature quad-dominant movements
calling sam, a near 400kg squatter, a DYEL
top fucking kek
Jacob Rodriguez
Nobody lifts their PR right away. They warm up to it. Dumb DYEL
>calling sam
So that's not you, but a guy named Sam? Dumb DYEL trying to act like someone else on the internet lmfao
Blake Flores
no, brainlet, sam is
i'm
maybe you should do some brain activation drills you fucking retard lmao
Colton Robinson
>Nobody lifts their PR right away. They warm up to it.
I'm well aware, thats called warming up. Nothing needs 'activating'
Your muscles dont just sit in some dormant turned off state othereise youd have to do leg activation drills just to get out of bed in the morning
Daniel Perez
he has to do sphincter activation drills otherwise he just shits himself in public
Ian Perez
lmao
