Glute Bridge Exercise

Here’s an exercise that strengthens your lower back, glutes and core . . . The Glute Bridge.

Start out by lying on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.  Using your glutes, move your hips toward the ceiling.  Only your shoulders and heels should remain on the ground.  Hold this position, then lower your hips toward the floor.  Repeat for your intended number of repetitions.

Key Points:

• Initiate movement with your glutes.
• Don’t let your glutes rest on the floor after each repetition.
• Keep your inner core activated.
• Don’t let your hips sag.
• Don’t let your hips rest on the floor between sets.
