the.com/gluteus
The muscle you sit on, ignore, then blame for every squat regret.
means Any of the three muscles forming the buttock, responsible for hip movement and holding you upright when you stand or climb stairs.
from From Greek *gloutos*, meaning 'rump' or 'buttock.' Latin borrowed the Greek term wholesale into anatomical usage, and it passed into modern medical vocabulary largely unchanged — one of those rare words that went straight from ordinary ancient speech into the sterile language of textbooks without much disguise.
