Instructions

1. Start by lying flat on your back with your knees bent and feet placed wider than hip-width apart, flat on the ground. Your arms should be laying flat alongside your body.

2. Squeeze your glutes and push through your heels to lift your hips off the ground until your knees, hips, and shoulders form a straight line.

3. Pause at the top of the movement, squeezing your glutes tightly, and ensure that you're not arching your back excessively.

4. Slowly lower your hips back down to the starting position.

5. Perform the desired number of repetitions and sets, ensuring that you maintain good form throughout the exercise.

It's important to keep your movements controlled, and always engage your core to help protect your lower back during the exercise. You can increase the intensity as you get stronger by adding weights or utilizing resistance bands.
