Even though the glute med is shortened it is highly on tension and aids in hip extension. I really appreciate the feedback, means a lot and I am truly humbled. Can't wait to show you guys all of the youtube videos I have queued up. I have about 8 in the bank right now ready to post! Jeff, that is exactly right.
