Instructions
- Start by laying on the floor with your knees bent and flat feet.
- Tie a band around your thighs.
- Make a buttock bridge by squeezing your buttocks to lift your hips off the floor. Hold that position and push the knees out and back for reps.
- Lower your hips back to the floor. Repeat for sets.
Tips
- Keep your feet in the same position, swinging slightly at the outer edge during the movement. If you want to move your feet with your legs, this will wrap your lower body muscles differently.
