Bret Contreras Gone Wild – An Interview With The Glute Guy
I tried my best to contain the beast! But as you’ll see in this eye-opening interview … that’s nearly impossible with a guy with as big a personality as my friend Bret Contreras.
There’s a lot of great take-away info in this interview. Including:
- Why is Bret Contreras known as “The Glute Guy”?
- Should he be called, “Contreras the Controversial Contrarian?”
- How has his ebook been received in the fitness community
- … and What effect has it had on the training we do at PDX Weightlifting
- Is Sport Specific training a Myth?
- Should athletes (who aren’t Olympic Lifters or CrossFitters) even bother with the Olympic Lifts?
- What’s up with the Sprinting controversy?
- How Bret got totally mired in the Lumbar Flexion debate (AKA – Are crunches bad for you?)
- What the hell is wrong with the fitness industry
- … and worse, fitness bloggers and “guru’s”
- All about Bret’s new kick-ass “Strength and Conditioning Review” project

Great interview. Thanks for both of you for sharing your insights.
Any thoughts about the notion that running/sprinting is merely a sustained fall where propulsion is provided by gravity (Romanov, POSE). The legs are just placed under the center of gravity to perpetuate the fall, and vertical displacement and forward body lean become the points of focus. This would seemingly decrease the importance of horizontal propulsion once you got up to speed.
This was such an awesome interview. I had much fun reading it. Great pic by the way.
