I wanted to alert my readers about an exciting workshop I’m putting on in a couple of months. Unfortunately most of my readers are in the U.S., but in case there are some New Zealanders reading this blog, I’m going to be putting on a Glute Training workshop at AUT University on Saturday, September 17th from 9:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m.
Here’s how it all came about. I put together a presentation for the YMCA Build Conference a couple of months ago and since I got such great feedback from the attendees, I kept working on it week after week after week. Since I’m going to write a review paper on the Gluteus Maximus, I’ve been sifting through around 300 papers on the glutes and have been studying like crazy. I’ve been creating charts, making graphs, filming videos, and even talking to researchers around the world. I showed my professor what I’d done and told him that we should put on an all-day workshop, and he agreed.
This presentation is seriously one of its kind. I’ve packed so much good information in here and I can’t wait to start spreading the knowledge. The best part about the workshop is that it’s only $150 (NZD), which is a steal in my opinion. Five REPS credits will be given to attendees as well. I can promise you that you will leave this presentation with an excellent understanding of the glutes and practical applications to implement right away.

fantastic Bret,
I think glute activation or lack of it is the cause of my lower back problem, so have taken time off working out to try and address the problem, so your workshop is timely, and I live in NZ.
Great Jenny!!! Looking forward to meeting you.
Will you be filming the workshop for future distribution?
Great idea Steven. I’ll look into it.
My thoughts exactly. It would be great for those of us who cannot attend.
You know Australia’s right next door too. Just sayin’!
I’d love to present in Australia. I’ll look into this too. Thanks Will.
Present in Melbourne and you can consider me signed up.
Bret
Have you thought about filming the seminar and making it available to your US fans.
Rick, I’ll definitely look into it and see what the University says. -Bret
Hey Bret,
Please film it for USA distribution. Don’t forget about us over here!
How is your torn bicep doing?
Dave, don’t worry I will never forget about my fellow Americans! My bicep is healing unbelievably quick, and one of my PT friends wants me to write a journal article on the method I used to rehabilitate myself since I’ve seen such rapid results. While I don’t think I’ll go this route, I’ll definitely write a blog post down the road as soon as I feel like I’m 100% and let my readers know how I went about my recovery. Thanks!
there is something wrong with that link the pdf is all distorted?
Shannon, very strange! It works on my end. You can email me at bretcontreras@hotmail.com and I’ll send it to you that way if you’d like. -Bret
please record and make available for purchase!
I’ll definitely try my best Paul.
Film the crap out of it!
Bret, will you ever do an experiment on EMG activity of tris/shoulders/pecs/EXTERNAL ROTATORS/obliques during 1A Push-ups and weighted 1A Push-ups (and/or planche pushups, handstand push-ups…)?

(sorry for the double post; I thought it meant to say I had already posted in another article)
Please film, I own your glute manual and would happily pay $300 for something like this…
I agree with the other comments…I sssoo would love it if this was filmed!
Come to Ireland! We need some quality presentations here!
Fantastic! I look forward to it! Booking flights and accommodation NOW!!!! Thank you!!!!
Hi Bret,
Will you be doing another one of these workshops in the future in NZ? Or do you have any plans to come to NZ this year and do any other workshops or seminars?
Thanks so much for all the info you post, it is incredibly useful and informative.
