How to do it

  1. Lift into a glute bridge: knees bent, feet flat, hips raised in line with shoulders and knees.
  2. Keeping your hips high and level, lift one foot a few centimetres off the floor.
  3. Place it down and lift the other.
  4. Keep alternating, then lower your hips to finish.

Form tips

  • Move slowly so your hips do not rock.

Common mistakes

  • Hips dropping on the side of the lifted foot.
