How to: Resistance Band Glute Bridge

  1. Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart.
  2. Place a resistance band just above your knees.
  3. Press through your heels and lift your hips towards the ceiling, squeezing your glutes.
  4. Hold at the top for a moment, then lower your hips back down.
  5. 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.
