Fix Your Glute Issue We consistently treat patients, many of whom are avid runners or fitness junkies, with issues stemming from weak or under-active glutes.

Glute compensations include the following: excessive lumbar spine motion occurs to compensate for lack of hip extension hip flexors shorten and tighten in the sitting position which limits hip extension hamstrings tighten to perform hip extension to compensate for glute maximus weakness IT-band and piriformis tighten to stabilize the knee to compensate for glute medius and minimus weakness Along with these compensations we can see problems such as hip pain, low back pain, IT-band syndrome, Runner’s knee, Piriformis syndrome often causing sciatica, and knee pain to name a few. The obvious question… what can I do about it? Standing up and walking around for just a few minutes every hour or two can help combat the negative effects of long-term sitting.
