#TruthHurtsThursday - Your glutes probably suck! A lot of problems in life can be fixed by strengthening your glutes. Weak glute muscles can lead to upper and lower back pain, hip pain, tight hips and knee pain. If your knees come in or shoot forward on the squat, you probably have weak glutes. This is a very low load/beginner exercise for the #booty - makes for a great #squat or #deadlift warmup. Also great for #hypermobile people like me. Stay tuned for more exercises like this in my blog 'The Hypermobile Athlete' which will be finished soon #teaser #AnnieShortStrengthCoach #powerlifting #strength #strengthcoach #strengthathlete #lifting #glutes #ehlersdanlossyndrome #powerliftingcoach A video posted by annie short (@theannister) on Jan 13, 2016 at 8:47pm PST

In my quest for #bouldershoulders like @billahamilton and @chleo_v_wyk I have discovered my new favorite exercise. It's like a bamboo bar press, minus the bamboo. Thanks to @rkbuckley7 for being my bamboo press #inspiration and showing me this exercise. Biggest problem I have with overhead pressing is loose shoulders and weak stabilizers- leading to impingement and tendinitis. Not any more!! #shoulders #shouldersday #powerlifting #strength #strengthcoach #bodybuilding #powerliftingmotivation #AnnieShortStrengthCoach A video posted by annie short (@theannister) on Jan 14, 2016 at 3:47pm PST

**Rehab/Prehab Post** Another favorite of mine for #bench #warmup - use this if you have weak upper back, hypermobile shoulders, tight pecs/traps or overworked rotator cuff muscles Keep your head on the ground Arms at 90* Pretend the ground is made of egg shells #annieshortstrengthcoach #hypermobility #strengthtraining #strengthcoach #powerlifting #rehab #prehab A video posted by annie short (@theannister) on Jan 10, 2016 at 10:48pm PST

#benchwarmup viewed from another angle. Similar to lat pull down but different focus. Think: **Try to touch elbows to your pelvis **Keep elbows close to body line through movement **Flatten shoulder blades against ribcage and squeeze under arms at the bottom **Proud chest **Lead with the elbows. Focus on only elbows moving- try to stabilize everything else **Try and get max squeeze everywhere (even butt and abs) **Back dominant movement Slowly increase resistance. Should feel kinda like a row but not. #annieshortstrengthcoach #hypermobile #TheHypermobileStrengthAthlete A video posted by annie short (@theannister) on Jan 6, 2016 at 1:14am PST
