Glute Amnesia

Restoring variability allows the glutes to operate effectively in both anteriorly and posteriorly rotated pelvic positions. Glute amnesia is a myth; muscles do not forget how to fire. Muscles fire in whatever order is necessary to complete a task given the constraints the body is operating within, not based on memory. Labeling glutes as inhibited or non-working is inconsistent with observable function, since truly non-working glutes would cause a person to fall. The appropriate intervention for apparent glute underperformance is restoring movement variability, not retraining the glutes to fire in a specific order.
