Straight off the slopes, Olympic freestyle skier Rowan Cheshire is here to help you build strength, stability and aid muscle recovery during this five-part series of glutes and legs workouts
We’re back for part three and Rowan has a 20-minute glute activation workout, this can be done as a warm up or as part of your workout. These exercises will engage the glutes so you can use the muscle more efficiently during exercise, plus this helps if you’re trying to build the glutes.
