Setup

Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart. Place your arms by your sides with your palms facing down.

How to perform

  1. Engage your glutes and lift your hips off the floor until your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your knees.
  2. Pause at the top, squeezing your glutes.
  3. Lower your hips back to the starting position with control.

Form cues

  • Keep your core engaged throughout the movement.
  • Push through your heels to lift your hips.
  • Avoid arching your lower back.

Common mistakes

  • Overextending the back at the top.
  • Pushing off from the toes instead of the heels.
  • Not lifting the hips high enough.
