Instructions

1. Starting Position:
- Lie on your back on a comfortable surface, such as a mat.
- Bend your knees so your feet are flat on the ground, hip-width apart.
- Keep your arms relaxed at your sides with palms facing down.

2. Tip-Toe Position:
- Lift your heels off the ground, balancing on the balls of your feet (tip-toes).
- Your toes should remain in contact with the floor.

3. Movement:
- Engage your core muscles.
- Press through the balls of your feet and lift your hips toward the ceiling.
- Keep your shoulders and upper back pressed into the ground.
- Your body should form a straight line from your shoulders to your knees at the top of the movement.

4. Hold:
- Hold the bridge position for a moment, concentrating on squeezing your glutes and keeping your core tight.

5. Return:
- Slowly lower your hips back down to the starting position while maintaining control.
- As you lower, gently relax your glutes but keep your core engaged.

6. Repetitions:
- Perform 10 to 15 repetitions.
- Rest for a few seconds, then repeat for 2 to 3 sets as you feel comfortable.

Tips:
- Focus on form rather than speed; it's important to perform each repetition with control.
- If you feel any discomfort in your lower back, consider adjusting your positioning or consult a fitness professional for guidance.
