Glute Stabilizer Swing Instructions
- You can use a kettlebell, dumbbell, or even a gallon of water, anything that you can hold onto and that has weight.
- Start by standing about 18-24 inches away from a wall holding the weight in both hands in front of you.
- Put one of your legs against the wall, that knee should be bent at about a 90 degree angle.
- Keep the other leg firmly on the ground with just a slight bend in that knee and hip hinge forward.
- Rotate your upper body towards the leg that is on the ground (if your right leg is on the ground and left leg on the wall you will twist to the right).
- Rotate as far as you can while maintaining strict form.
- Pause at the top and slowly bring the weight back down to the starting point.
- Repeat.
- Perform exercise in both directions.
