Sets: 2-3

Reps: 10 (5 each side)

• Support your upper back on the bench and walk your feet out to a 90 degree knee bend.

• Lift your hips in a bridge position so that your hips are in line with your trunk.

• Inhale and expand the ribcage to prep for the movement.

• Exhale and draw in your core. Press down with one leg to stabilize as you march the other leg up.

• Inhale and lower back down. Exhale, draw in and switch sides.

• Avoid letting your pelvis rock or drop during the exercise.

• You should feel this working through your glute and core, not the lower back

Modifications:

• Extend your arms out to the side for increased support or hold them straight up for a challenge.

• Decrease the range of your march - start with just lifting the foot barely off the ground and work up to fully unweighting the leg.
