Single-leg glute bridges are tough, but a great glute exercise; if this one is too difficult, build up your strength with regular glute bridges first. Then progress to short single-leg glute bridge holds.
How to Do a Single-Leg Bridge Kick:
- Lie face-up on a mat and place your hands on the floor by your sides. Bend your right leg, placing your right foot flat on the floor about a foot away from your hips. Lift your left leg a few inches off the ground, flexing your foot so your toes point to the ceiling. This is your starting position.
- Press your right heel into the floor and tighten your core as you lift your pelvis up until your body forms a straight line from knee to shoulders.
- Pause here for a beat, then slowly lower your hips to the floor without lowering your left leg to the ground.
- That's one rep. Do three sets of 10 reps, then repeat on the other side.
