Weights: 6-10kg
In this 30 minute lower body stronger class, we keep things simple, but impactful. Using one heavy set of weights (6-12.5kg) and a resistance band, we progress through effective movements that target all areas of the glutes.
Our first block includes dual loaded static lunges with pulses, focused on switching on the glute maximus, before layering in a banded knee drive to encourage engagement through the hip stabilisers (glute medius/ minimus).
From there, it's a simple transition with minimal rest into our second working block, reducing to one weight to work a single leg RDL combined with banded knee abduction and dumbbell chest rotation.
This class is a great way to build strength, increase stability, and keep progressing with heavier weights, while feeling strong and capable. Enjoy the burn!
