ELEVATED GLUTE BRIDGE

This is an advanced version of the conventional GLUTE BRIDGE exercise. Set up by placing your feet on a bench, set of stable chairs, or sofa with your feet shoulder distance apart and knees bent to 90 degrees while laying face up on the floor. Proceed to lift the pelvis off the floor by extending through the hips. Keep a neutral spine by bracing through the core.

Muscles Involved:

  • Gluteus Maximus

  • Hamstrings

  • Erector Spinae

  • Core

  • Posterior Chain

Related Conditions:

  • Glute Amnesia

  • Hip Spine Syndrome

  • Acute Low Back Pain

  • Sacroiliac Joint Syndrome
