    I'm in the military and have been experiencing extreme back pain, ive done a lot of the physical therapy stretches, and hasn't really helped, so I decided strengthening my lower back would be better than stretching it out over and over again, done this exercise before and only felt it in the hamstrings, didn't help, thank you so much for explaining it clearly, once I started engaging my glutes my freaking back started tingling, it felt like fluid drained out of it and now my back feels freaking great, I can't explain how happy I am right now, this is the first progress I've made on my back in 2 years.

    There's a lot of videos here showing you how to do the movement right but almost no one shows you what you have to correct and where do you have to "feel it" and that's really important.

    Very simple, direct explanation that I will be putting to use starting today. I went to PT the other day for hip pain and it was determined that the muscles in front of my hip were getting worked too much and those in the glute very little. He gave me exercises to strengthen the glutes, but I'll be adding this to my routine. Thanks for making this available!

    This was so incredibly well explained and so helpful. I have been getting lower back pain from running for years, watched your video on how that can be due to poor glute activation which led me here. I did as instructed here and my glutes are screaming after just a few bridges! Lots of work to do now but thanks so much for getting me on the right path!!

You are the Best I have seen on the site for teaching how to target GLUET not legs or back. Everyone needs these for spinal system support. unless they want to get OLD before their time.

    Awesome advice so glad you took the time to explain the different techniques. The one thing for me that makes putting the time into working out is correct form from start to finish. "Practice makes perfect" doesn't necessarily work if you're practicing with bad form so with that said thank you very much and all the best.

    wow.. this is the best video on how to effective do glute bridge exercise. I was surprised by how using resistance band (knee pushing out) activates the most of my glutes. In fact, just by pushing my knee/things outward with a resistant band can activate my glute muscles. Interesting how squeezing inward (with a yoga block for foam in between legs) did not activate much glute--but much more of my quads. Thank you so much for clarifying the bridge exercise.

    Dr. Oliver, your presentation on the glute bridge exercise is very informative. But there are two areas in this exercise that push me to ask you for your expert advice: firstly, how is the breathing done; before raising up inhale for the pelvic tilt to go up to the chest, then raise your butts up, and exhale for the pelvic tilt to go down, when you go down Secondly do you need to put a pillow under your head to prevent injury to the neck? Thank you.

    when i do it regularly i feel in only in my quads but with all 3 techniques here i mostly feel it in my hamstrings, i can feel the glutes working a little bit but nowhere close to what i assume it should be
    the one exercise that i really feel in the glutes is a modified barbell lunge where i don't engage the quads
    i should mention i've been recommended this exercise because i have a bit of an anterior pelvic tilt
    any ideas about what i could be doing wrong?

    • @xxSJxxxx
      @xxSJxxxx 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you have APT your hamstrings are likely weak. Strengthening them is a good way to help pull your pelvis back to the correct position. As long as your butt muscles are engaging it's okay if your hamstrings are feeling the exercise. Band around the outside of your legs, above the knees, is good too.
      I'm not a doctor or anything but I've been trying to sort out APT for a while now, weak hamstrings is definitely part of the problem. Good luck 🙂
