The hamstrings are synergist muscles with the glutes.
-
Basically, they are supposed to work with the glutes and help them out…NOT overpower them and work more on hip extension (aka a hip bridge or thrust).
-
This problem is known as synergistic dominance of the hamstrings and it’s a VERY common issue.
-
Doing the nerve glide before hip bridges is useful, but doing the hamstring release IN BETWEEN sets of bridges (interset) is even more useful for helping the glutes to turn on and activate again by reducing contraction of the hamstrings.
-
Try it out…I promise you that if you have this problem you will feel your glutes activate more 🍑 #shorts
