Elevated Glute Bridge

Elevated Glute Bridge Instructions

• Sit on the ground with a flat bench behind you.
• Feet positioned roughly shoulder-width.
• Lean your upper back against the flat bench.
• Arms are across your chest. Eyes looking skyward.
• Initiate the exercise by extending your hips (raising your glutes) up.
• Drive your heels through the floor.
• Actively contract your glutes.
• Don't overextend/arch your low back. Focus on the contraction of the glutes versus how high you raise your hips.
• The top position should be your knees, hips and shoulders parallel to the floor.
• Hold for a one-second count.
• Lower slowly to the starting position.

*Tips*

• Changing your foot placement will alter the stimulus in your glutes. 
• Perform single-leg variations to increase difficulty.
