Kneeling Back Leg Lift

Expert Advice

Maintain a neutral spine and avoid arching your back as you lift your leg to engage the glutes effectively.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Start in a kneeling position with hands under shoulders and knees under hips.
  2. Engage your core and lift one leg up behind you, keeping the knee bent at a 90-degree angle.
  3. Lift the leg until your thigh is in line with your body and your foot is above your knee.
  4. Lower the leg back to the starting position without touching the knee to the ground.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching legs.
