Exercise Description

The single leg glute bridge builds serious glute strength and fixes muscle imbalances. It hits each glute harder than regular bridges and improves hip stability.

How To

1. Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor 2. Extend one leg straight out, keeping it in line with your thigh 3. Push through your planted heel and squeeze your glutes to lift your hips up 4. Hold the single leg glute bridge position for 2 seconds at the top 5. Lower slowly and complete all reps before switching to the other leg

Form Tips

• Keep your core tight throughout the entire single leg glute bridge movement • Drive through your heel, not your toes, to activate your glutes properly • Don't let your hips drop or rotate - keep them level and square • Squeeze your glutes hard at the top and hold for a full 2-second count

Common Mistakes

• Pushing through your toes instead of your heel reduces single leg glute bridge effectiveness • Letting your hips sag or twist to one side breaks proper form and wastes effort • Rushing through the reps without holding at the top misses the best muscle activation
