Gluteal muscles Puns

First year student and trying to understand what is the primary gluteal muscle that is involved when in dorsiflexion of the foot/ankle.

Thanks

Ever wonder what happens to the butt muscles in Zero G?

The question has been completely addressed by (Dr) Vienna Tran working as a researcher to find out the long-term effects of Zero G on the human gluteal muscles.

So this is a continuation of my other posts in which I describe the relations of different muscle groups to the pelvic floor muscles.This is my previous post in which i mainly concentrate on the core and its relations to the pelvic floor muscles : https://www.reddit.com/r/Hard_Flaccid/comments/ki5j0r/this_post_i_will_try_to_explain_the_hard_flaccid/ . In this post I will concentrate on the gluteal muscles and how they can affect your pelvic floor and your penis as a result.

So in my previous posts I have written and proved the various connections between the pelvic floor muscles,especially between the levator ani and the muscles of the anterior male pelvic floor-thus why many men experience a flared hard flaccid when they poop(I have written about the connection between the external anal sphincter and the ischiocavernosus - https://www.reddit.com/r/Hard_Flaccid/comments/kd2ley/here_i_will_present_a_theory_why_in_some_men_with/ ).

In this post I will use various studies to present my point.Sadly,male pelvic floor problems are vastly vastly overlooked.The current literature mainly focuses on the female pelvic floor and its relations to muscle groups.

However there is something interesting.**As we know the main muscle that causes penis symptoms such as erection problems,glans not filling up/cold glans,pain in the base of the penis is mainly caused by the ischiocavernosus.**So when this muscle is tightened blood flow is restricted,that causes the penis’ cavernosal bodies to shrink and as a result of the lack of blood harden-thus hard flaccid appears.So interestingly in women there is a similar condition also involving the anterior pelvic floor-this condition is named vaginismus,

In it the muscles of the anterior female pelvic floor are chronically shortened and tight which does not allow for penetration,or when this happens pain appears.Now of course women do not have a penis so they can not have hard flaccid but it is interesting to see that just the same as men they can also have a chronically tightened anterior pelvic floor muscles which in their case also interferes with sexual function.**I believe that the relations that the pelvic floor muscles have with other skeletal muscles and the reflexes that are produced

Have you been sitting a lot lately? If you spend hours a day sitting and not getting up frequently to stand, walk, or otherwise move around, you may have experienced a problem commonly known as “dead butt syndrome” (DBS).Day 13 Flourish Beginner Pilates for Weak Gluteal Muscles 30 Day Wellness Journey

This is a gentle Beginner Pilates to activate and engage the Glutes! This will help improve [posture, decrease back stiffness and aches. The glutes muscles are one of the most important foundational support for our spine.

Join me on the MAT

The clinical term for this condition is gluteus medius tendinopathy, though it’s also often referred to as gluteal amnesia.

As you might expect from its common name, the condition results from the gluteal muscles essentially “forgetting” their main purpose: supporting the pelvis and keeping your body in proper alignment.

Moving more and sitting less can help prevent or treat dead butt syndrome, The Glutes is an important element to keep our spine straight, The quality of the Glutes and lower body posture will change from moment to moment, day to day, week to week, year to year.

The awareness of this ongoing Glutes and back posture might change your life.

We continue to look at exercises to combat HF. Today, a very important exercise is the gluteal bridge. This exercise will not only help to increase potency, but also to maintain the tone of the muscles of the press and buttocks, as well as improve blood circulation in the pelvic organs.

Lie on your back with your feet firmly on the floor. Hands should lie along the body. The pelvis should be raised as high as possible, lingering at the top point for a few seconds. In this case, the muscles of the buttocks must be strongly squeezed. For a start, 10 such climbs will be enough. Over time, their number must be gradually increased, dividing into several approaches.

This exercise has many different variations. They can be used to train specific muscle groups more strongly. We will show some in the video.

The third shot of the Gardasil series was administered in my buttocks region. The prior shots in my arm. I am female, while the staff administering this shot was male. I don't know what healthcare title the person held. When I told my nursing friend about my experience, she gave me a disapproving look as if I had been taken advantage of. Look of her feeling bad. It was just a casual discussion where I was brought up my appointment.

Anyway, I was caught off guard by her reaction. While this staff member and I were the only two individuals in the room, I hate that a simple shot has left me with confusion on how this played out. Was this foul play? Did this guy take the liberty to interpret intramuscular areas or does the NP decide exact location?

Patients shouldn't have to advocate for less intrusive areas.

Introduction

The gluteus maximus is the strongest and biggest muscle of the body. The gluteus maximus is not only a hip extensor but also plays an important role in pelvic and spinal stabilisation and proper leg alignment (Snijders et al. 1993). The gluteus maximus allows us to maintain an upright position needed for bipedalism. Through evolution the gluteus maximus enlarged in humans as a means to stabilise the trunk while standing and counteract the high impact forces that tend to flex the trunk anteriorly during running and sprinting. Consequently the glute muscles gradually lose tone during our chair-laden lifestyle (Marzke et al. 1988). The terms ‘gluteal amnesia’ and ‘sleeping giant’ probably sound familiar. These terms refer to inhibition and delayed activation of the gluteal muscles, which in time leads to weakness of these muscles. Gluteal inhibition negatively affects performance and lower body strength and is a root cause for many injuries and chronic pain. Due to our lifestyle, low back pain or lower body injuries our glutes may be inhibited and do not fire when they are supposed to. What is the last time your glutes felt really sore after a workout? Many athletes and lifters don’t know how to turn on the glutes, because the compensation pattern to get around using the glutes are so engraved. This article focuses on exercises that address the major functions of the glutes and result in the greatest level of glute activation. These exercises will help to switch your glutes back on and re-establish correct muscle recruitment patterns. Re-activating your glutes will positively affect every compound lower body lift, improve your core stability, prevent lower-body injuries and enhance sport performance.

The gluteus maximus and lower back stability

Activating and strengthening the glutes needs to form an important part of your core routine. Co-contraction of the gluteus maximus with the psoas major (part of iliopsoas muscle) contributes to lumbo-sacral stabilization (Gibbons 2005). The gluteus maximus provides stability to the sacroiliac joint (SI joint) by bracing and compression (Snijders et al. 1993). Excess movement at the SI joint would compromise the L5-S1 intervertebral joints and disc and could lead to SI joint dysfunction and low back pain. The gluteus maximus also provides lower back stability through its connection with the erector spinae and toraco-lumbar fascia (Vleeming et al. 1995). Some of its fibres are continu

Hey guys,

I took up studying kinesiology to learn and apply it to my MMA hobbies. I was learning from a book called MMA Anatomy (link), written by Frederic Delavier on the matter. He talked about how gluteal muscles extend power to hips. I always thought hips was like the general area of the posterior, while the buttocks referred to the muscles. Can anyone expalin the difference.; could not find much on the difference on the two.

Added a flash card I made directly from my ANKI notes.

Thanks!

I'm trying to work out if I'm hitting all 3 gluteal muscles when I'm working out. I'm trying to achieve glute hypertrophy in my routine. I do Squats, Bulgarian Split Squats and Barbell Hip Thrusts, and sometimes Lunges. Would doing these exercises hit the Gluteal Maximus, Medius and Minimus??

Hello, I’m a 32 year old female. I tripped on Saturday but was able to catch myself before falling. Since then I’ve had a horrible pain in my butt on the right side. The pain radiates down my leg. I thought it was sciatic pain and went to the chiropractor and got a massage from the same lady who gives my mom massages for her sciatica. Now I think it’s not sciatica... it feels more like a pulled a muscle? The pain is worst at night and hinders my sleep. It’s bad in the morning and I can’t really sit. By about 11-11:30 AM I’m good and can sit again. I am overweight (5’5 and 250lbs) and I just took a positive pregnancy test so all I’m using is Tylenol to help it. Is there anything else I can do? I use heat and ice and it helps to fall back asleep but the pain is horrible when I wake up. I’m just at a loss as to what I can do to alleviate this.

I (F, 38) have been actively body building for almost 2 years and had made great progress. 20 lbs loss, 4 pants sizes down and much progress in sculpting my body to where I wanted it (smaller waist, arm and leg definition, glute growth) and weight at 119 lbs.
I recently found my husband (M, 35) of 10 years had been cheating on me and went into a deep depression with little to no eating, no sleep and all other previous care I had taken (supplements, exercise, meditation) out the window for over a month. I lost 8 lbs in the process. My clothes hang on me (previously a size XS and a US 1 in pants), my skin is no longer tight and I seem to have lost all of my glute and leg muscle and definition I had worked so hard to get. I have now been back at the gym for 2 weeks and do not see any progress in muscle growth or strength. I'm afraid I may have stunted any possibility of growing back what I lost due to my severe anxiety and lack of nutrition I experienced for so long.

Does anyone know of any facts or rules of thumb I could use as a realistic guideline on what to look forward to if I keep exercising and begin a healthy nutrition regimen with adequate calories again?
