There is no denying the importance of glute engagement for back and postural stabilization. Health professionals will often prescribe exercises to help restore glute awareness and engagement patterns. These exercises are great, but often people still find it difficult really feel their glutes. In many cases small tweaks and modifications to the typically recommended movements are needed to tailor the exercise on an individual basis.
