WATCH THIS VIDEO FOR AN OVERVIEW
EACH HIGHLIGHTED HEADING IS ONE TRAINING SESSION, MEANING THERE ARE 2 GLUTE FOCUSED WORKOUTS EVERY WEEK.
THE (PL) PRIMARY LIFT(s) IS/ARE ONLY TO BE DONE IF YOUR’E NOT TRAINING THE DAILY TRAINER LEG DAYS (WHICH HAVE THESE BUILT INTO THE LEG DAYS) OR DOING MUCH OTHER LEG TRAINING VOLUME IN YOUR TRAINING. IF YOU ARE DOING PROPER LEG TRAINING, YOU WILL NOT WANT TO DO THE PRIMARY LIFTS. ALSO, IF YOU WANT TO ONLY GROW GLUTES AND NOT THE LEG DEVELOPMENT WITH IT, THEN EXCLUSION IS ALSO A GOOD OPTION THERE.
