Pacey Performance Podcast

Force vector theory, glute development and the role of hip extension in speed development with Bret Contreras (Coach, Researcher and Owner of Glute Lab)


Listen Later

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Coach, Researcher, and Owner of Glute Lab, Bret Contreras. Bret is another person who has been on my list to reach out to and I can't believe its taken me this long. I also can't believe I didn't witness the Glute Lab when I was in San Diego last year too. It was Bret's good friend JB Morin who made the introduction and I am glad he did because we had a great chat about the force vector theory, glute training and training the posterior chain. Bret has proudly transitioned into the personal training market and is absolutely killing it, amassing 900k+ followers on Instagram.

Hope you enjoy this episode with Bret Contreras.
