Single-Leg Glute Bridge
- Start by lying on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
- Rest your arms on the floor, palms up, at shoulder level.
- Raise your hips, creating a straight line from your shoulders to your knees.
- Brace your abs and lift your right knee toward your chest.
- Hold for 2 counts, then lower your right foot.
- Repeat the movement with the left leg.
- Each leg movement counts as 1 rep.
- Complete 2 or 3 sets of 5 to 10 reps.
PROPER FORM AND BREATHING PATTERN
For an effective glute bridge, press through your heels, engage your core, and keep your upper body relaxed. Breathe out as you lift your hips and inhale as you lower them back down. This ensures proper engagement and maximizes the benefits of the exercise.
