glute bridge pt1 300x156

glute bridge pt2 300x153

A good exercise to get you moving in the warm up and wakes up the glute muscles and hamstrings.

There are many variation to this exercise, initially slowly raise up from pelvis on the floor and back down again. Another variation would be to hold in the top position for 5 seconds before lowering. A Pilates variation would be to roll the spine segment by segment as you come up and roll down segment by segment.

Try for 3 sets of 10 reps.
