This exercise is great for working the glutes, abs, and hips.

Instructions

  1. Start this exercise in the push up position from toes. You should be facing the mat with your arms and legs extended, keeping your back straight and your abs tight.

  2. Squeeze your glutes and bring your left leg up straight so that it is level with the rest of your body, and slowly push back with your heals. Bring your leg back level to your body and lower it back down to the mat.

  3. Switch legs and repeat for reps. Return to starting position.

  4. Do 10-12 reps to start, and increase as you progress. Ensure that your hips don't drop by keeping your abs and glutes engaged at all times.
