How to do it

  1. Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor about hip-width apart, and arms at your sides. This will be your starting position.
  2. Brace your core and press through your heels, squeezing your glutes to lift your hips until your body forms a straight line from shoulders to knees.
  3. Pause and squeeze your glutes hard at the top, avoiding arching your lower back.
  4. Lower your hips back to the floor under control and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
