How to do it
Squeeze your glutes hard at the top of every bridge to lock in the hips.
- 1
Lie on your back with one foot on a towel and the other leg raised towards the ceiling.
- 2
Lift your hips into a bridge position, keeping your core tight.
- 3
Slide the foot on the towel away from your body, straightening your leg.
- 4
Pull the towel back towards your body, bending your knee and returning to the bridge position.
- 5
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching legs.
Expert tip
Ensure your hips remain level throughout the movement to engage your glutes and hamstrings evenly.
