 Glute Activation Focus.

Strengthening the glutes are key in regards to lower back pain and a weak lumbar spine, so here are focus ideas and how to incorporate them into your classes this week.

Are You Using Mini Bands? So cheap, effective and portable

GLUTE ACTIVATION

Standing and Travelling –  monster walks/ side walks/squat external rotation/squat jacks/lateral lunge/standing lateral raise/ standing hip extension

Side Lying – side plank clams/side kick/front kick/banded circles

Banded Plank – Side taps/hip extension/external rotation

Banded Bridge  – mini band glute bridge/bridge abductions/Single leg bridge
