So this is the glute bridge or glute thrust with a single leg. So you can effectively do this with a barbell, or you can do it with or without weight. You're just going to be using one leg, so you can come all the way down and all the way up. I'm just going to do it with the pad so you can see it with the pad. And obviously, if you just want to do it as bodyweight, you can. So when you're doing it on a machine, you're going to unhook, unload the machine. I like to lock out that leg, right? And you're going to come all the way down and all the way up. So when you're doing it, one of the cues I like is to kind of hide your pelvis and then express. So hide, express, and really try and push down with your heel. So as you're doing it, you're pushing down. Obviously you do your completed reps on one side, then swap the leg on the other side. This is your single leg glute bridge.
