How to do a glute kickback

  1. Stand tall with feet hip-width apart and elbows bent at 90 degrees.
  2. Bounce lightly off the balls of your feet, keeping the hops small and quick.
  3. Pump your arms rhythmically in a running motion to build momentum.
  4. Land softly through the balls of your feet with knees slightly bent.
  5. Maintain a steady, continuous pace throughout the set.

Form tips

  • Stay on the balls of your feet for quick, springy repetitions.
  • Keep your core engaged and torso upright throughout.
  • Land softly to reduce impact on your joints.
  • Maintain a consistent breathing pattern to sustain the pace.
