This Glute focused Stronger class is all about glute isolation through functional, controlled movements. We begin with a set of banded bridging to warm and activate your glutes before moving into a set of heavy single leg bridging on each side with the foot elevated on the block.
Following this we come to stand to work through a controlled set of RDLs and suitcase squats using our set of weights, before coming back into single leg work with rear foot elevated Bulgarian split squats. We finish class with a set of sumo squats to balance the body.
