When the pelvis is in neutral, the glutes are primed to fire and do their job, but when it is out of neutral, the glutes can be much harder to connect to and get to work. Not to mention all the sitting we do, which tends to turn them into snoozy glutes! In order for the pelvis to be in neutral, we also have to pay attention to the ribcage and the rest of the spine. Once we've established this power in the glutes, we can use it to help us generate space and freedom in the chest and shoulders. Enjoy!
