Activate your glutes INSTANTLY - Here's how

Base test:perform a squat (3 reps is fine)

Now rub the back of your neck (10 secs) - Don’t be shy - get in there!

Now perform 3 squats again

Feel a difference?

You might have felt any of the following:

Looser
Lighter
Deeper squat

Pretty cool right?

You've just experienced one of the techniques I use in my sessions to engage the glutes.
(btw I have many more!)

but why are glutes important?

1. Biggest muscle group in the body
2. One of the primary movement muscles
3. Dictates posture
4. Inactive glutes are one of the main causes of injury

So in true starship troopers fashion.... (great film;)

Would you like to know more?

if you live or around Taunton, have nagging pain anywhere in the body
or just want to be stronger and perform better in the gym.......

Your glutes maybe the answer

Book a taster session so we can assess your glute performance and get them active.

Hi, I'm Andy Kidd. I'm a qualified sports massage therapist and a practitioner of what I call the powerful BE-ACTIVATED system. And with over 30 years experience as an athlete, and having worked with hundreds of clients as a PT and a massage therapist, I know exactly what it's like to be held back by pain and injury. That frustration of not being at your best, I've lived it, and I've helped many overcome it. My approach goes way beyond just massage, though. And while I use advanced sports massage techniques to release tight muscles and restore movement, I also address the root cause of dysfunction.

How your body breathes, moves, and compensates under stress, and that's the power of the BE-ACTIVATED system. It resets your body's function, so the results actually stick. Now, you don't have to go anywhere. With my VIP at-home treatment, I come to you in your home at your convenience. You get high-level treatment without the hassle of travel or waiting rooms.

Strong Glutes and Core for Supreme Athletic Performance

We all know we need these are 2 areas of our body to be strong for any sport we play. When glutes and core are working well, so do we. We will be quicker - we will move better - we will accelerate faster - we can improve endurance.

And we can prevent common issues such as back,knee, hip and hamstring injuries from happening.

However, standard glute and core exercises are not enough to have these important areas at their peak.

You can do an exercise focusing on the core or glutes but it’s likely that other muscles in your body are doing the lifting instead of them. This is compensation and it’s so common in non-injured athletes.

Did you know that jaw or neck could be doing the work of the core during the standard plank exercise? This is very common.

Did you know your shoulders and arms or even your calves could be doing the lifting during your weighted hip thrust?

Your glutes can’t do the job themselves so your body recruits other muscles to help. This normally leads to injury. The bane for any aspiring athlete.

This is Where Be-Activated Helps

Be-Activated is muscle activation method that upgrades muscle groups such as glutes and core so that the body works in it’s natural, powerful state. By getting glutes and core to work well, it helps to reduce compensation patterns in the body. Reduce these compensation patterns and ultimately, not only does injury rate drop but the athlete will raise his/her performance to new levels.

The reason for glute and core dysfunction runs deeper than just muscle weakness and trying to strengthen it. There is a reason why the compensation patterns are happening. Finding the area of the body where the body is compensating is key and that is what Be-Activated does first through a series of muscle tests and then through a series of activations to kickstart the muscles into action.

I first test the glutes and core and see how they are functioning (likely not very well ;)). I then go through a series of activations to get them firing.

These activations will certainly include correcting breathing patterns and psoas activation as both are crucial to glutes and core.

They might even include visual field work further down the line. Did you know your eyes could be the key to ultimate glute and core strength?

Your body compensates in so many ways and the most innocuous areas could hold the answer.

The thing is Be-Activated is almost instant in its results. As in, we will do a muscle test, show the weakness you have, do an activation and then retest and the muscle will magically fire and hold the test. Except it isn’t magic. Be-Activated doesn’t increase the strength of a muscle. It works more on the state of the overall body to improve the messaging between brain and muscle.

This is where you need your body. In it’s optimal state where every muscle including glutes and core are doing their job keeping compensation at bay (and that means injury) and at the same time, improving acceleration, speed and agility for your sport.

If you’re an athlete, parent of an athlete and you live in Somerset, UK then you shouldn’t miss this opportunity. If you’re interested in a 60 mins session to get your glutes and core firing or you want more info, by all means, drop me a messsage.

I look forward to hearing from you. Until then, enjoy my page and speak to you soon.

Best wishes

Andy ;)
