Glute Bridge
The glute bridge is an excellent body weight, low impact exercise that is safe for almost anyone! Glute bridges not only help to strengthen and shape the hamstrings and glutes, but it can also be a great exercise to decrease low back pain and help with core activation.
How-To Steps:
Step 1: Begin on your back with your feet hip width apart and knees bent.
Step 2: Engage your core by gently pushing your belly button toward the ground, squeeze your bum and lift your hips off the ground until you are in a straight line from shoulders to knees.
Hold for 1-2 seconds and then slowly lower your hips back down and repeat
If you are looking for more of a challenge, try a single leg glute bridge! Follow the same steps but with one leg off the ground, ensuring that hips stay even throughout the movement (avoid any tilting from side to side!).
*Never do an exercise that causes you pain*
