Band Hip Lift
The band hip lift is a band exercise that targets the glutes, with the hamstrings and quadriceps assisting.
How to do the band hip lift
- Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground.
- Place a resistance band just above your knees.
- Engage your glutes and core muscles.
- Press your heels into the ground and lift your hips off the floor, squeezing your glutes at the top.
- Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower your hips back down to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Sets and reps
Start with 3 sets of 10–15 reps, resting 45–60 seconds. When every set feels easy, add reps, slow the lowering phase or move to a harder variation.
Muscles worked
The main muscle is the glutes. The hamstrings and quadriceps work as secondary muscles. See all glute exercises or every resistance band exercise.
