Hip Bridge | Corrective Exercise for Glute Activation & Core Stability

In this video, Dr. Ken Kaufman, sports chiropractor and MLB consultant, demonstrates proper form and key cues to help you maximize activation through your posterior chain while maintaining spinal control.

Why It Works:

  • Strengthens glutes, hamstrings, and core stabilizers

  • Promotes hip extension and pelvic control

  • Reduces lower back tension and improves movement efficiency

  • Ideal for athletes, active adults, and injury prevention programs

🏋️‍♂️ How to Perform:

  1. Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart

  2. Engage your core and squeeze your glutes as you lift your hips off the ground

  3. Pause briefly at the top, then lower slowly under control

  4. Perform 2–3 sets of 10–15 reps

💡 Pro Tip: Avoid arching your back—drive through your heels and keep your core engaged to focus tension in the glutes.
