ISSA Certified Glute Specialist

You may think that stronger glutes are just about aesthetics, but they are key to preventing injuries and boosting overall performance. As a certified Glute Specialist, I teach clients how to properly activate and train the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus to build strength, improve function, and sculpt the look they want. I design targeted lower-body programs that deliver results clients can't get on their own. When it comes to glutes, I'm the go-to expert helping clients unlock their full potential, one hip thrust at a time.
