Ep. 5 – Dr Bret Contreras aka “The Glute Guy” Discusses The Best Training Methods For Glute Development

In this episode we got a little bit controversial with the comparison – Squats vs Hip Thrusters for glute development. We discussed Bret’s favourite glute building exercises and pieces of equipment, the sweet spot for optimal frequency, volume and intensity for glute development, as well as some theories on periodisation that he has never discussed before. We also covered business, building a social media profile in the fitness industry and how Bret became “The Glute Guy”.
