Glute bridge: how to do it with good form

The glute bridge works the glutes on the floor with no equipment and is a good way to learn to switch them on.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat, hip-width apart.

  2. 2

    Press through your heels and lift your hips until your body is straight from knees to shoulders.

  3. 3

    Squeeze your glutes hard at the top for a second.

  4. 4

    Lower your hips to the floor with control.

Common mistakes

  • Arching the lower back at the top.
  • Feet too far away.
  • Pushing through the toes instead of the heels.
