How to perform?

Banded Bent Over Glute Kickbacks with Hold is a dynamic exercise that effectively targets your glutes and takes your workout to the next level. To begin, attach a resistance band to a sturdy anchor or fixed object and stand facing it with your feet hip-width apart. Next, hinge forward at your hips, keeping your back straight, and loop the resistance band around one foot, securing it in place behind your knee. From this position, kick your leg backward, extending it fully while squeezing your glutes and keeping your core engaged. Once you reach the top of the movement, hold the contraction for a few seconds before bringing your leg back down to the starting position. Repeat on the other leg for a complete set. The added resistance from the band will challenge your glutes, while the hold at the top of the movement will provide an added burn and ensure maximum muscle activation.
