Strong glutes aren’t about aesthetics alone. They’re foundational for posture, balance, joint health, metabolism, and longevity. Whether you’re 25 or 75, training your glutes properly pays dividends in everyday life. Below are my go-to glute exercises that are safe, scalable, and effective at any age—with options to regress or progress as needed. 1️⃣ Glute Bridges Why they matter: - Activate dormant glutes - Support the lower back - Improve hip stability How to scale: - Beginner: Bodyweight, slow tempo - Advanced: Single-leg bridges or add a dumbbell/band 👉 Coaching cue: Squeeze the glutes at the top like you’re holding a credit card. 2️⃣ Sit-to-Stands (Box Squats) Why they matter: - Direct carryover to daily life - Strengthens glutes, quads, and core - Excellent for knee and hip health How to scale: - Higher chair = easier - Lower box or goblet squat = harder 👉 Opinion: If you can’t control a sit-to-stand, adding load elsewhere is premature. 3️⃣ Step-Ups Why they matter: - Build unilateral (single-leg) strength - Improve balance and coordination - Very joint-friendly when done correctly How to scale: - Low step, bodyweight - Higher step or added load 👉 Coaching cue: Drive through the heel of the working leg—don’t bounce off the back foot. 4️⃣ Reverse Lunges Why they matter: - Easier on the knees than forward lunges - Emphasize glutes more than quads - Great for symmetry and control How to scale: - Hold onto support - Add dumbbells or slow the eccentric 👉 Opinion: Reverse lunges are criminally underrated, especially for adults over 40. 5️⃣ Hip Hinges (Deadlift Pattern) Why they matter: - Essential movement pattern - Protects the back when lifting in real life - Massive glute engagement How to scale: - Start with bodyweight or kettlebell - Progress to dumbbells or barbell 👉 Coaching cue: Push the hips back like you’re closing a car door with your butt. 🔑 Final Thought

One thing I’ve learned working with busy parents is this: Debt isn’t usually a math problem — it’s an allocation problem. Most families make enough to survive, but not enough to get ahead because money is leaking everywhere in small, exhausting ways. If you’re serious about getting out of debt, here’s the framework I recommend — simple, realistic, and built for parents who already have full plates. 1️⃣ Stop Budgeting Emotionally — Start Allocating Intentionally Budgets fail when they feel like punishment. Instead, allocate money by priority, not guilt. Here’s a clean starting allocation: - Essentials (50–60%) – housing, utilities, food, transportation - Debt Elimination (15–25%) – non-negotiable, automatic - Future You (5–10%) – emergency fund or savings - Life & Sanity (5–10%) – yes, fun still matters Opinionated take: 👉 If debt elimination isn’t getting paid before entertainment and convenience, it never gets paid consistently. 2️⃣ Automate the Escape Plan Busy parents don’t fail because they’re lazy — they fail because decisions require energy. Set up: - Automatic transfers toward debt the same day income hits - Minimums on everything else (no manual thinking required) When debt payments happen first, lifestyle adjusts around progress instead of fighting it. 3️⃣ Attack One Debt at a Time (Momentum > Math) I don’t care whether you choose snowball or avalanche — what matters is visible progress. Pick one debt. - Pay minimums on everything else - Throw all extra money at the target - Celebrate the win (cheaply, intentionally) Momentum reduces stress. Stress is what keeps parents stuck. 4️⃣ Reduce “Silent Spending” Before Cutting Joy Before you cut family fun, cut: - Subscriptions you forgot about - Convenience spending driven by exhaustion - “We deserve this” spending that happens too often Hard truth: 👉 Most families don’t need to earn more first — they need clarity first. 5️⃣ Increase Capacity, Not Just Discipline
