How to perform it
Step-by-step instructions
- 01Lie on your back with one foot planted near the glute, the other leg lifted, and a dumbbell secured across your hips.
- 02Brace your abdominals and square the pelvis so both sides of the hips remain level before you lift.
- 03Drive through the planted foot and extend the working hip until the shoulder, hip, and knee form a straight line.
- 04Squeeze the working glute briefly at the top without twisting the pelvis or arching the lower back.
- 05Lower your hips under control, complete the set on that leg, and then switch sides.
