Single-Leg Glute Bridge
Muscles worked: Glutes (assisted by hamstrings).
How to do it
- Lay on the floor with your feet flat and knees bent.
- Raise one leg off of the ground, pulling the knee to your chest.
- Execute the movement by driving through the heel, extending your hip upward and raising your glutes off of the ground.
- Extend as far as possible, pause and then return to the starting position.
Coaching cues
The two cues IronPack shows on this exercise's card mid-workout:
- One foot planted, the other leg straight
- Hips level - no tilting
Logging it
IronPack suggests working in the 10 to 15 rep range, progressing in 1 kg jumps when you own the top of the range. Bodyweight movement: log added weight only, and your records account for your logged bodyweight. Records are tracked automatically at every rep count from 1 to 12. Check your estimated 1RM from any hard set.
