The single leg hip thrust exercise builds stronger glutes and fixes muscle imbalances between your left and right side. It targets one leg at a time for better strength.
1. Lie on your back with one foot flat on the floor, knee bent at 90 degrees 2. Extend your other leg straight out or bend it and pull toward your chest 3. Drive through your planted heel and squeeze your glutes to lift your hips up for the single leg hip thrust 4. Hold the top position for 1-2 seconds, keeping your core tight 5. Lower your hips back down slowly and repeat the single leg hip thrust movement
• Keep your core engaged throughout the entire single leg hip thrust movement to protect your lower back • Drive through your heel, not your toes, to get maximum glute activation • Don't arch your back at the top - think about tucking your pelvis under • Make sure your single leg hip thrust creates a straight line from knee to shoulder at the top
• Pushing through your toes instead of your heel reduces glute activation in the single leg hip thrust • Arching your back too much at the top puts stress on your spine • Rushing the movement instead of controlling both the up and down phases of each single leg hip thrust rep
