Exercise Description

Fire hydrant circles work your glutes from all angles while building hip stability. They hit your butt muscles in ways regular squats can't reach.

How To

1. Start on hands and knees with wrists under shoulders and knees under hips 2. Keep your right knee bent at 90 degrees and lift it out to the side until it's hip height 3. Make slow circles with your lifted leg, keeping the fire hydrant circles motion controlled 4. Complete 10 circles forward, then 10 circles backward before switching legs 5. Focus on fire hydrant circles form over speed - your glutes should feel the burn

Form Tips

• Keep your core tight throughout fire hydrant circles to protect your lower back • Don't let your hips shift or rotate - stay square to the ground • Make controlled circles instead of fast sloppy movements for better fire hydrant circles results • Keep your lifted knee at 90 degrees the entire time

Common Mistakes

• Lifting your leg too high and arching your back during fire hydrant circles • Making tiny circles instead of full range circles that actually work your glutes • Rushing through fire hydrant circles instead of controlling each circle movement
