Exercise Description
Marching Hip Raise builds strength and size in your glutes in a way many other exercises cannot. Glute strength is important for stabilizing your core, pelvis, and lower body.
Exercise Instructions
-
Step 1
Lie down on your back and keep your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor. Raise your hips off the floor, and form a straight line from your knees to your shoulders. Brace your core. -
Step 2
Without dropping your hips, lift one foot off the floor. Return the leg to the floor and repeat on the opposite leg.
Muscle Groups
Marching Hip Raise targets Abs, Glutes, Hamstrings as seen below.
Exercise Tips
- Keep your hips and torso straight throughout the movement. Try not to turn your upper body from side to side.
- Be sure to squeeze your glutes at the top of the movement for a full contraction.
- To get the most out of the exercise, push with the heel of your skating foot, not your toe.
- Keep your core tight and avoid overstretching your back at the top of the exercise.
