Glute Bridge
A great exercise for strengthening your glutes (your butt muscles) and hamstrings (the back of your thighs!) To perform it lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor hip-width apart. Now push through your heels, squeeze your glutes and lift your hips off the ground until your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. Hold in this position. The key is to actively engage and really feeling the target muscles working.
Performance Tips
Drive through your heels, not your toes
Avoid overextending your hips; your body should form a straight line, no arching!
Keep your neck relaxed and gaze towards the ceiling
Maintain steady, controlled breathing throughout the hold
Loop a hip band around your thighs to increase the difficulty
