Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
The Single Leg Bridge is a fantastic bodyweight exercise that enhances your core stability and strengthens your glutes and hamstrings. By performing this move, you'll also improve balance and coordination as you engage your lower body muscles while keeping your core steady in a controlled plank position.
How to do it
- Begin in a lower plank position, with your forearms on the ground, elbows directly under shoulders, and body forming a straight line.
- Engage your core and gradually raise one leg off the ground, ensuring the leg stays straight and aligned with your torso.
- Hold this position briefly, then lower the leg back down to the starting plank position. Switch legs and repeat for desired reps.
