Sore Glute

Hey, what do you do for a sore (very sore) glute besides stretching?

  • Foam Roller. I think these have saved me a lot of pain since I learned how to use them.

    I swear by those things and I find it really interesting how many gyms do not have them on hand or give you a blank stare when you ask about them.
  • Foam roller and a hot bath :)

  • Just keep moving and enjoy the suffering a bit. Also make sure you jog around a bit before stretching...you'll do more harm than good stretching a cold strained muscle.
  • I love my foam roller. It will feel uncomfortable at first but then I feel much better.
  • Also lacrosse balls.

    This. You'll feel better once you actually start working again.

    ^^This, also is it just 1 glute? If so, maybe check your form on whatever you were doing. Both should be sore IMO, I am not a professional though. I know everyone favors one side over the other but the other one should be atleast somewhat sore?

  • Drink plenty of water, self-myofascial release, keep it mildly active, get good sleep.
