Equipment
The Wide Glute Pulse Bridge is a variation of the glute bridge that focuses on enhancing glute strength and stability. By maintaining a wide stance, this exercise targets the gluteus maximus effectively while also engaging the adductors. It is beneficial for improving hip extension and overall lower body strength.
How to do it
- Lie on your back with knees bent and feet placed wider than hip-width apart.
- Engage your core and press your feet into the ground to lift your hips upwards.
- Keep the shoulders and head on the ground while squeezing the glutes at the top.
- Perform small pulsing movements, lifting and lowering the hips a few inches.
- Lower back to the starting position with control, maintaining the wide stance.
