The Butt Lift (Bridge) primarily works the glutes, with the hamstrings supporting the movement. It is a strength movement that needs no equipment.
1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Lie flat on the floor on your back with the hands by your side and your knees bent. Your feet should be placed around shoulder width. This will be your starting position.
Pushing mainly with your heels, lift your hips off the floor while keeping your back straight. Breathe out as you perform this part of the motion and hold at the top for a second.
Slowly go back to the starting position as you breathe in.
Technique guidance
Exhale as the target muscle shortens against resistance and inhale during the controlled return. Keep breathing steadily throughout the set.
General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same exercise variation, range of motion and recording method when comparing Butt Lift (Bridge) sessions.
Repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 10, 9 and 8 completed reps. Keep each set separate instead of recording only the total.
Compare repetitions using the same variation and range. A different variation needs its own history; extra reps are not directly comparable if the movement changes.
