2 Exercises To Work out Your Glutes

Single Hip Thrusts with Loop Band

► Start with shoulders on bench, walk your feet out until your body is parallel with the floor and your knees are at a right angle.

►  Unweight one leg. Hinge at the hips as you lower keeping your torso still.

► Drive opposite knee into march position as you extend the hips.

► Focus on level pelvis from left to right with abdominal bracing.

Hip Thrusts on Bench

Start with shoulders on bench, walk your feet out until your body is parallel with the floor and your knees are at a right angle.

Hinge at the hips as you lower keeping your torso still. Notice how I rock on my shoulders rather than keeps the shoulders glued to the bench. This helps target the gluteals rather than the low back.

Maintain feet flat on the ground!

Think: “push weight forward onto feet as you lift up”
Focusing on pushing hips straight up sometimes results in low back pain.

Always remember to assess if you are feeling the exercise in the desired area!!
