Glute Bridge
How to do it
- Lie on your back, knees bent, feet flat and close to your glutes, arms at your sides.
- Push through your heels and lift your hips off the floor.
- Squeeze your glutes hard at the top, with your body in a straight line from knees to shoulders.
- Hold for a beat, then lower under control.
- If you feel it in your hamstrings, bring your heels closer to your glutes.
