al. (2006) claim that the human gluteus maximus evolved its shape and size due to endurance running.

It is expected that performing deadlifts with the same absolute load would produce greatest EMG amplitude in the gluteus maximus when deadlifts are pulled from the lower starting points because external hip extension moment arm lengths and hip extension moments are greatest at lift - off in comparison with knee - passing and lock - out (Escamilla et al. 2000; Escamilla et al. 2002).
