Clam shells are a great exercise to help strengthen the glutes and core. To perform a clam shell, start by lying on your side with your knees bent and feet together. Place your hands under your head or on your hip. 

Engage your core, then slowly lift your top knee as high as possible while keeping your feet together. Hold for one to two seconds, then slowly lower your leg back to the starting position. Repeat 10-15 times before switching sides.

 For more resistance you can add a rubber band between your legs like on this illustration

5. Side Kicks


Stand on all fours. Extend your leg (like on the picture) and then kick sideways. Repeat until you feel strain in your buttock/hip and then change legs and do the other side. For more resistance you can add ankle weights or use a rubberband

 

 

 

   6. Step-Ups


 
1. Stand in front of a step or box that is roughly the same height as your knee when bent. 

 2. Place one foot on the step.  

3. Bend your knee and hip to lower your body until your front thigh is parallel to the ground. 

 4. Push through the heel of your foot on the step to straighten your leg and stand up. 

 5. Lower your back foot to the ground and repeat the movement with your other leg. 

 6. Continue alternating legs in a controlled manner for the desired number of repetitions.

 

7. Single leg deadlift

 


Single-leg deadlifts are a great exercise for strengthening your glutes, core, and hamstrings. They are a unilateral exercise, meaning you are working one side of your body at a time. To do a single-leg deadlift, stand on one foot with a slight bend in your knee. 

Keeping your back flat, hinge forward at the hips and reach your opposite leg behind you. Keep your chest up and your arms out in front of you as you lower your torso until its parallel to the floor. Engage your glutes and hamstrings to stand back up to the starting position. Repeat on the opposite leg.

 

8. Side-lying leg lifts    


Side-lying leg lifts are a great exercise for strengthening your core, lower body and especiallly your glutes. To perform a side-lying leg lift, start by lying on your side with your head facing up. Bend your knees and place your bottom leg in front of your body and your top leg behind your body. 

Make sure your feet are together and your back is straight. Next, lift your top leg up towards the ceiling and hold it there for a few seconds. Slowly lower it back down and repeat. You can increase the intensity of this exercise by adding a resistance band or ankle weights. Be sure to keep your core engaged throughout the movement
