When done with proper execution, step ups are a killer glute exercise. The first execution is going to be more quads. I have a more upright torso, I am moving up/down and I have a greater degree of knee flexion thus making it more quads.To make a step up more glutes…You’re going to want to lean forward and push your butt back. We want to minimize knee flexion and maximize hip flexion. Hold the weight on your working leg side so you’re not having to brace against the load. I also recommend holdin

This is my #1 tip for feeling glutes in a step up🙌 Think step DOWN rather than step UP. Step ups are absolutely one of my favorite lengthened movements for glutes. I often hear that people struggle to feel their glutes in this movement. To bias the glutes we want to maximize hip flexion. This means you’re going to want to lean forward and push your butt back.

By slowing down and controlling your reps, you’re increasing time under tension and further stretching the glute muscles 🍑🍑🍑🔥🔥🔥 Studies show that step-ups have the highest gluteus maximus (main glute muscles) activation (125.09%).
