Dumbbell Single Leg Glute Bridge

Lie on your back with one knee bent and foot flat on the floor, the other leg extended straight, keeping your thighs aligned. Place your arms flat on the floor by your sides for stability, brace your core, and keep your ribs down. Drive through the heel of the bent leg to lift your hips toward the ceiling, squeezing your glutes at the top until your body forms a straight line from shoulders to knee. Keep your pelvis level and avoid twisting or arching your lower back. Slowly lower your hips back down with control to the starting position. Exhale as you lift and inhale as you lower. Focus on controlled movement, driving through the heel, keeping your hips square, and engaging your glutes rather than your lower back.
