Today's video covers strengthening exercises to help correct a trendelenburg gait pattern and improve gluteus medius and gluteus minimus strength. These two muscles are important abductors and stabilizers of the hip joint and help keep the pelvis level during functional tasks. These muscles are also implicated in several clinical conditions including low back pain, patellofemoral pain, IT band syndrome, hip impingement, gluteal tendinopathy and ACL tears.
This video shows three of my favorite exercises for strengthening gluteus medius and minimus. These exercises could be used as a part of a injury prevention program or with someone who is suffering from one of the clinical conditions mentioned above. I would aim to complete these 2-3 times per week and perform 3 sets of 10-15 reps.
My new book contains comprehensive rehab programs for the 50 most common injuries and pain issues, including programs for several hip and low back conditions (gluteal tendinopathy, hip arthritis, low back pain, sciatica, SI joint pain, disc herniations, and many more).
