Thank you so much. This is REALLY useful. You have helped me infinitely. Been working at this exercise for almost a year now after THA. My glutes are still weak and I am having trouble engaging them. The prosthesis was the longest they could reasonably fit after missed diagnosis. Under a PT but he has not presented it just as the comprehensive package you offered. He was more concerned with setting the Transverse abdominus but I am NOW feeling glute engagement. I REALLY relate to the reference of pelvic tilt diminishing the horrible compensations through hamstrings and quads as well as lower back pain inducing over-arching. Thank you again.

Yo, nice, thank you, useful tips: ) Notice you made a mistake in the description: -And if you feel your hamstrings or lower back or even QUADS working during the glute bridge over your lower back, -
The last word should be -glutes- I think.
Correct me if needed, by doing this your hamstrings are very likely to engage, because hip extension is one of their functions right? I mean, you can't get ALL the work done by the glutes?

Great details! It surely brings this base movement to another level! One trick that I used to determine if I was firing the glutes is that I was doing single leg bridges that way if I was not using the glute muscle compensating by using another muscle I would feel it. That surely worked for me, I like your explanations better as they are not as drastic. Thank you for sharing!

I watched a different video on how to do glute Bridges properly and thought that it was a good video. I tried doing it from that video thinking I had lots of work to get the form right. I watched this video and tried the way you said to do it, and I could do it well immediately and I could feel my glutes engage! Great instruction! Thank you!

Thank you Cori, again an amazing video! I have a question on the posterior tilt. In STOTT Pilates, they call this exercise the shoulder bridge and they insist a lot on lifting the hips while keeping the spine in neutral (as opposed to imprinting. Do you know why you would prefer this approach?

The way you are doing it in the video looks like the way I have been doing it. I see a lot of other videos where they come up much higher and i feel like if I try to get up that high my thighs and back start kicking in - like I arch my back to get higher.

This video was very informative. I knew I was doing something wrong when I kept feeling pain in my back. Doing the bridge right after watching this video, I felt instant relief. Thank you so much.

I always felt slight lower back pain and used to wonder what is wrong with my techniques. But now I know what was wrong. You are a great fitness instructor.
