Description

Sit close to a bench with your upper back and shoulder blades supported on it. Lift one foot off the ground. Raise your hips while keeping your torso and head straight and aligned. You should feel a contraction primarily in your glutes and thighs, pivoting around the support point of your back on the bench. Lower down slowly and repeat the movement. Be careful not to arch your back too much during the ascent. To increase the difficulty of the exercise, you can add additional weight.
