Glute Strengthening Exercises For Seniors

The gluteal muscles (our buttocks) are comprised of the gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus and they are the largest and strongest muscles in our body.

They're responsible for many important tasks, like walking, running, jumping, and standing up from a seated position.

The gluteal muscles serve as the foundation of our musculoskeletal system, and when they are weak, it can lead to a host of issues. It can reduce our ability to move and function well in everyday life, affect posture and balance, and increase the risk of injuries and pain in the back, hips, knees and ankles.

On the other hand when we strengthen our glutes, we will move about much easier, balance and posture will improve and it will also take the strain off our hips, knees and ankles.
