Gluteal Muscles and Back Pain
  • Underactive Gluteal Muscles and Back Pain
  • People usually spend more than 9 hours a day
    sitting for work and when they get up from the
    desk they feel the ache in the low back or even
    knees. The ache could be due to the weakness of
    the gluteus medius. When these muscles are not
    used often, they may become shortened over time,
    lose their range of motion and proper function.
  • Due to a sedentary lifestyle, we prevent these
    muscles from working and activating. This usually
    leads to various problems in our body, such as
    back pain, hip pain, and even knee pain.
  • Back pain may be caused by different contributors
    and one major factor is weak glutes. The weak
    glutes may be coupled with the failure to
    activate them at the right time. It is important
    to maintain proper body mechanics and muscle
    activation to prevent pain in the lower back.
  • If you have strong glutes you may not have to
    suffer the low back pain. Glute strengthening
    exercises and small mechanical help in minimizing
    the lower back pain.

Why Weak Glutes are a Problem?
  • The role of Glutes is to stabilize the hip when
    you land, propelling forward as you walk, pushing
    forward as you climb stairs, and most importantly
    for holding your pelvis upright when you stand.
  • Weakened or inactive Glutes will not be able to
    hold your pelvis in the right position or help
    maintain the correct alignment of your femur. If
    glutes muscles are not working on the daily
    activities it can cause the wrong muscle groups
    to be switched on. The surrounding muscles may
    become over-activated to help compensate for the
    lack of strength in the Glutes. The brain sends a
    signal to the surrounding muscles when the Glutes
    cannot activate sufficiently. These muscles cause
    a change in our walking pattern which can lead to
    increased stress and damage to our joints.
  • The pain, muscle spasm, and nerve pain are caused
    by the over activation and compensation. This is
    not only related to the lower back pain but also
    ITB syndrome and patella-femoral pain (knee pain).

What are Glutes Muscles?
  • Our glutes or the bottom muscles are made up of
    three different muscles gluteus maximus, medius,
    and minimus. The gluteus maximus is the largest
    of the three, with medius and minimus being much
    smaller. All three muscles play a vital role in
    your daily movement, posture, and position of
    your lower back and pelvis.
  • The role of the glutes muscles in our daily
    movement involves
  • Gluteus Maximus
  • Gluteus Medius
  • Gluteus Minimus
