GLUTES

Mini Loop Band Fire Hydrant

BeginnerResistance band

The mini loop band fire hydrant is an isolation move for the glutes performed on all fours. Lifting one knee out to the side against band resistance targets the outer glutes, with the band adding tension right where the muscle works hardest. It's a great activation drill for the hips.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Loop a mini band around both thighs just above your knees.

  2. 2

    Get on all fours with your knees stacked directly under your hips and hands under your shoulders.

  3. 3

    Keep your spine neutral and core braced.

  4. 4

    Raise one knee out to the side, opening against the band's resistance without twisting your torso.

  5. 5

    Lower the knee back down with control, then repeat on the other side. Choose a band that lets you move through the full range.
