I'm not only the founder of the organization, I'm a member! While heavy squats and heavy lunges work for many people, I've found that when I do lighter weight squats with good form and go all the way down (butt nearly touches the floor), I feel it more in my glutes than the heavy squat counterparts that go to the more traditional "thighs parallel to floor" position (which I feel more in my quads). Also, I really feel deadlifts in the glutes (and hams). I've also been experimenting with special sets called "muscle rounds" - a little different than normal sets. (See the over 40 section for details). Doing muscle rounds with light squats, dead lifts, or even leg presses, really gives me a powerful workout (that I feel in the legs AND glutes). Might be worth a try! Like Mackfactor, though, I've not really been looking! TSMD
