ELEVATED SINGLE LEG BRIDGE
This is a single leg hip extension strengthening exercise. Lie down on your back, place your heels on an exercise bench or Plyo Box and bend both knees to 90 degrees. Raise the non-target leg off the ground into 90 degrees hip flexion. Keep the target leg’s heel planted and drive it downwards to raise the pelvis off the ground. Keep the spine neutral by bracing the core prior to lifting up the pelvis.
