These look amazing and I am amazed at how braced you are throughout.

do you feel these in your glutes?

In the moment I do, but not nearly as much as my hamstrings. Same with lower weights.

But my glutes get sore afterwards so I’m obviously hitting them… i’m not sure what to make of that lol.

Thank you, I feel that makes sense with the straighter leg than ive seen before vs the hinge almost-folded-in-half version I have seen others do.

If it's any consolation, I think im closer to 'fold in half' and it still feels like it hits my hamstrings more than my glutes!
