Muscle for Life with Mike Matthews

Ep. #105: Jeff Nippard on building your best butt ever


Listen Later

In this podcast, I interview Jeff Nippard, who’s a professional bodybuilder and online coach that produces a lot of great content on YouTube.

I came across Jeff thanks, once again, to Cory, who works with me in my supplement company Legion. She turned me on to his YouTube channel and I really liked a video he made on glute training and figured it would make a good podcast because while I’ve written about it before, I haven’t spoken much about it.

So, that’s what this interview is all about: how to build a better butt. And in it, Jeff does a fantastic job breaking down more or less everything that you need to know, ranging from the best exercises to do and how to do them most effectively, the best rep ranges to work in, how to program a glute program properly, and more.

So, if you want more booty, then this interview is for you.

6:54 - Where should you start if you want a better butt?

9:39 - Any tips for how to move up in weight on the hip thrust and make it more comfortable?

44:45 - What other exercises can be changed to increase butt activation?

49:49 - Any other tips for other exercises?
