Plural of 'gluteus,' the large muscles of the buttocks, especially the gluteus maximus.
From Latin 'glutaeus' or 'gloutaios,' from Greek 'gloutos' (buttock). Medical Latin adopted and pluralized this anatomical term in the early modern period for scientific accuracy.
Your gluttei are the largest and strongest muscles in your human body—that's why squats are so effective for building power, not just for vanity!
