Barbell Glute Bridge

Muscles Targeted:

  • Targets the glutes.

  • Most bridge exercises work both the upper and lower glute.

Form:

  • Lying on the floor, keep the barbell or dumbbell pressed against the hips.

  • Press feet into the ground and elevate your hips. Each repetition should end with a straight line from your shoulders to your knees.

  • Focus on contracting your glutes at the very top of the movement, do not hyper-extend into a back bridge.

Rep Ranges:

  • Moderate to high reps would be ideal for this exercise.

  • Save the low rep for barbell hip thrusts
