Instructions

Lie face up on the floor, bend your knees and put your feet flat. Your feet should be about hip-width apart. Place a weight on top of your hips. This could be a kettlebell (as shown), weight plates or a dumbbell. Hold on to the weight to keep it secure.

Raise one leg off the ground and point the toe towards the ceiling. Make sure not to swing the raised leg as you lift. Drive up through your heels and upper back, lifting your hips as high as you can. Squeeze your glutes for a second or two at the top and lower all the way back down to the ground before repeating.

Tip

Ensure to keep your core braced throughout this movement, so you don’t hyper extend your back. Do not rush through glute bridges. Take time to hold at the top and feel the glutes activate.
