We had someone reach out about how to perform a clam or clamshell exercise so here you go!! 🎉 Truthfully, we don't prescribe or perform this exercise very often at OPAL because it's often performed incorrectly and there are other exercises we like better for targeting glute medius.

The simple clam and its variations can help reduce stress/impact related incontinence.

What if I told you there’s a big chance you’re doing clams completely wrong 👀 This is one of the most common mistakes I see. People lift the knee… but every rep they roll backwards. That takes the work away from the glutes and into the lower back, so the exercise feels busy, but not effective.
