How to: Resistance Band Glute Bridge
- Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart.
- Place a resistance band just above your knees.
- Press through your heels and lift your hips towards the ceiling, squeezing your glutes.
- Hold at the top for a moment, then lower your hips back down.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Common Mistakes
- Arching the lower back excessively while lifting.
- Pushing through the feet instead of using the glutes.
- Not lowering the hips completely back down to the floor.
Modifications
- Perform the bridge without the band for a reduced challenge.
- Use a stability ball under your feet for increased stability.
Tips
- Ensure the resistance band is positioned just above your knees for added tension.
- Keep your feet shoulder-width apart for stability.
- Focus on squeezing your glutes at the top of the movement.
