I’m a personal trainer and these are the glute bridge variations I love using to build strength and stability

No matter how long you’ve been exercising, there’s always something new to learn. I’m a personal trainer and I’ve been training for more than 20 years, so I was surprised to come across a glute bridge variation I’d never done before.

At Fit&Well, we often highlight the glute bridge as a foundational move. It helps build strength and stability by activating muscles in the buttocks and core, which you need for everyday movement. It also targets the posterior chain (the muscles that run along the back of the body), which needs to be strong if you’re able to tackle more advanced, but supremely effective, moves like the deadlift.
