• Start by lying flat on your back with your feet resting on top of a box, the dumbbell placed over your hips. Raise one leg up and off the box.
    Push through your heels and raise your hips towards the ceiling, keeping your feet flat on the box.
    Engage your glutes at the top of the movement, pause briefly and then lower your hips back down to the starting position.
  • Start by lying on your back with your knees bent and feet in a staggered position on the box.
    Drive through your heels to lift your hips off the floor, making sure to keep your feet and knees pointing forward.
  • Stand with a dumbbell held on the side of your leg.
    Raise that leg laterally as high as your hip range of motion allows for.
  • Stand with your feet hip-width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand with your palms facing each other.
    Take a big step forward with your right foot, lowering your hips until your right thigh is parallel to the ground and your left knee is hovering just above the floor.
    Push through your right heel to straighten your right leg and return to the starting position.
