Standing Glute Kickbacks Right

Muscles worked: Legs · Also: Glutes & Hips

Standing Glute Kickbacks Right are the right-side version: standing tall, extend the right leg back, squeeze the glute, and return with control.

Keep your hips square to the front and your torso upright throughout. If you wobble, hold a chair or wall lightly — balance support is sensible, and it lets the glute do the work instead of your stabilisers.

How to do it

1. Stand tall, holding support if needed, with a soft bend in your standing knee.
2. Extend your right leg straight back behind you.
3. Squeeze your glute at the end of the range and return with control.
4. Keep your hips square to the front and your torso upright throughout.
5. If you wobble, hold a chair or wall lightly — balance support is sensible, and it lets the glute do the work instead of your stabilisers.
