Top 10 Banded Glute Exercises
Here’s a video of my favorite glute exercises! I use the Glute Loop from Bret Contreras.
The band works double time on the glutes by creating more tension. Your glutes control hip extension, hip external rotation, and abduction. When you add a band to hip extension movements like the bridge, hip thrusts, bird dogs, etc., it adds resistance for external rotation and abduction too. This creates more tension in the glutes, leading to higher levels of activation. A little trick that gives you more bang for your buck!
I always try to incorporate the band, unless I’m going for a heavy max on my hip thrusts or squats. Great for warming up, increasing glute activation, and burnouts. Plus, it travels great! An excellent, low budget addition to home workouts and bodyweight ones on the go.
Add a few of these exercises to your next workout!
