Glute exercises not working my glutes
So I have a small and flat butt, which i've tried to activate for a year now. And i've manage to get activation using thera bands and body weight exercises, but now that i'm trying to grow it with weighted exercises i can feel my thighs and lower back doing all the work.
I always start lifting with first doing activating exercises to get the hang of it, but when i move to weighted hip thrust and squats, i can't feel them in my butt at all, just everywhere else.
What to do?
