How to do it
Keep your neck relaxed and chin tucked throughout each rep.
- 1
Sit on the ground with your shoulder blades against a bench and your feet planted in front of you.
- 2
Drive through your heels, lifting your hips upwards while squeezing your glutes at the top.
- 3
Lower your hips back down to just above the floor and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Expert tip
Focus on a full hip extension at the top of the movement and avoid overextending your lower back to protect your spine.
Common mistakes
