I recommend the same thing for strength training exercises, but glute bridges are pretty mild and you don't lift any weights doing them. 100 glute bridges is not that much - it's much easier than, say, a 10-minute hill climb. But thanks for the comment - it's much appreciated :)

Glute bridges are better for activation and mobility than building muscle. 100 is waaay to many though, 25-30 is fine. You need to do other exercises as well, dont waste time/effort on a niche stuff, but even if you have time to work out 4 hours a day, do fewer but do them better. You need to hold for 5-10 seconds per rep, not quick like in this video.

I really appreciate your input and advice for other viewers. ♥️💯 I know many fitness channels and influencers try to milk trends. But this video is not about that. If you're familiar with TABATA workouts, 100 glute bridges are around what you'll do during a 4-minute TABATA interval. Now, of course you can add a warm up and cool down and call that your 15-minute lower body workout for the day. But you can always add 3-4 more intervals to your tabata workout. And if you follow this channel, you know I'm always advising people to train comprehensively and stay active throughout the day.

I completely agree that overtraining defeats the purpose of working out and that it can also be very dangerous However, glute bridges are not that challenging for the body, so they're hard to overtrain on, especially with 24 hours rest between sets. 100 glute bridges is maybe like walking for 10 minutes at an incline.

Except the glutes are one of the strongest muscles. They can withstand glute bridges with no weight very well everyday. You are seeing those from the perspective of gym logic. Before when People didn’t have gyms, they stayed lean and toned with constant movement. Why do you think runners and jumpers have bubble booties? Progressive over load also applies to no weight and constant movement. And the glutes can withstand it. Bret Contreras made an article on the results some girls were getting by working the glutes everyday with lesser weights. The glutes CAN withstand it like that.

Glute bridges tone your butt muscles. Building your muscle mass means you will have a shapelier, perkier glute area. If you also lose weight in the process through a well-rounded fitness routine, your hip size will look smaller, though perkier. If you don't lose any weight, you will have a slightly larger hip area, but also more rounded and less flaky. However, key here is well-rounded fitness routine. For the lower body, I would also add some squats, lunges, and deadlifts. 3 sets, 10 reps each should do the trick for a beginner :) and try different variations each time you work out to keep your body guessing

You can also get some inner thigh work if you pause for a second at the top of the bridge, and then open your knees while keeping your soles on the mat.

If you want to target your quads, pause at the top of the movement and extend one leg at a time towards the ceiling. Your quads and glutes will burn considerably more :D Good luck!!

@Fitnessdy

Glute bridges are a multi-joint exercise and don't isolate the glutes, although this is the main muscle group you work. You also feel them in your quads and hamstrings, even your inner thighs if you keep your feet close and open your knees. Exercises that target the glutes with less hamstring activation include frog pumps, donkey kicks, fire hydrants, RKC plank or standing glute squeezes + some gym machines. That said, I didn't really understand why you don't want to target both the glutes and the hamstrings 😀

@studentofspacetime

Thank you for your response. The reason I wanted to isolate the glutes from the hamstrings is that I have very tight hamstrings (can't reach my toes etc), despite stretching every day for months on end.

If you're now at zero exercise and start doing 100 glute bridges per day, then yes, you'll notice a more toned glute area. But if you want real progress, also add glutes, lunges, and deadlifts to the mix, ideally weighted. Consider 3 sets, 10 reps each with weight. Also, do incline walking to warm-up and Pilates afterburn (3 sets, 10 reps each clamshells, fire hydrants and raised clamshells should do the trick). But again, if you're a beginner start with glute bridges for 2 weeks to build up strength. Then, move onto the program above for another few weeks.

I think I didn't explain thoroughly. When you extend and then contract your muscles, you allow them to contract even harder and more consciously. This exploits the mytotic reflex, which assumes that muscles resist an extension with a contraction. And although isometry is a good strategy, the flexion-extension move has its own benefits. Plus, most people may not be able to hold a pose for 5 minutes straight

I do 60…with weight as well

By all means do them daily is fine but you need a day off for the muscle to grow. If you continue to do so many day you can cause injury! I do 3 x 15 Mon Tues Wednesday off then Thursday and Friday and weekend off. you do not need to do 100 a day! You can cause more injury 🤕

Is this for boys too and i am 18 years doing gym and got injury and have got lumbard scoliosis by heavy streching over the left side should I do these to strengthen my lower back and when can i lift weights again i mean how long will this take to recover by doing this???

Boys have the same muscles as everyone else 😀 being 18 and a boy is hard, I bet you're dying to get back to your typical training. Back issues may take several weeks to get better though (up to 12 from what I know). However, it's best to ask a physical therapist for advice. I'm a cardio and fitness trainer. I know theoretically that bridges, bird dogs, back bows and even holding an isometric deadlift can strengthen your lower back, but can't prescribe you the exact mix of exercises over the internet. It's best to ask a PT and for more great info on physical therapy, the youtube channel Squat University is a treasure trove of info. I wish you the best of luck to recover from this 🩵

Glute bridges can contribute to creating lean muscles in the thigh and hip areas. However, having muscles in those areas doesn't magically destroy body fat. For this, you also need a caloric deficit, a comprehensive workout routine, and a healthy diet :)

It help tone lower belly fat if you tighten your core while doing it. Your hips will loosen and might grow some but you can't really fix your hip shape. You can grow the muscle around it but you can't get rid of hip dips. Your glutes and hamstrings will grow though.

Can bridges help with cellulite on the outside of your left leg right under your hip 😩😩 my left leg has cellulite on the outside of it right under my hip

@Fitnessdy

Жыл бұрын

The best way to reduce cellulite in my experience is resistance/ strength training. Glute bridges are a form of strength training, but you can activate more muscles by wearing resistance bands, holding onto weights on your hips and doing them off a chair or step. However, you should also consider adding (weighted) deadlifts, squats, and lunges to your routine. If you don't have weights, just grab a couple of water bottles to begin with or a backpack with a few books strapped on your back tightly.

Best way to rid yourself from additional cellulite is don’t eat sugar or red meat. A tone body built by swimming wont have cellulite. When I added red meat and desserts in my late 30s I got cellulite. It’s your bodies protective response to bad food. The bad stuff is stored in fat cells then pushed to the outside of the body , away from organs. You can build muscle, a lot of muscle 💪🏻 and still have cellulite but no one notices because they look at the muscles . Anyway, no sugar or red meat , swimming and strength training with resistance (bands) , using your weight (not weights). But keep this in mind, cellulite is superficial. Being not sick, being well is THE best and primary objective. Our bodies are where we live, so take good care of it, and love yourself, first.

Why it doesn't cross our mind to do 100 glute bridges...we normally settle for 10 to 12

@Fitnessdy

7 ай бұрын

Because the sets of 10 or 12 are recommended for building muscle mass when you're doing the reps to failure or close to failure. Even then, trainers recommend 4-6 sets, which get you to at least 50 glute bridges. 100 glute bridges without weights have another goal: strengthening the posterior chain. Now, most beginners will not be able to do 100 from the start, but it's a goal to work toward. To make things easier, tabata intervals of 20 second on, 10seconds off might help

What if you really hate doing glute bridges?

Is this useful for HIP DIPS in men. Please reply mam...

@Fitnessdy

4 ай бұрын

That's an awesome question. Well, technically yes, but you need a more comprehensive understanding of hip dips so you can build a better routine. So, hip dips are basically caused by how your femur and hips unite. It's similar to some people having big noses or other men having narrow shoulders and big hips. That means you can "mask" this very normal skeletal build by creating muscles strategically. In your case, you should build the gluteus medius or the sides of your glutes. So, consider a program based on glute bridges, sumo squats, and wide deadlifts, but also various hip abduction movements (leg lifts, clam shells, fire hydrants). Good lunge variations should also include side lunges and curtsy lunges. Here's what I would do in your specific case: daily side leg raises + 2-3 lower-body strength training days. First variation, from your side, keep your leg in front and toes down - do as many reps as you can until failure. Second variation, extend your leg back and point your toes up - again do as many reps as you can until failure. Then repeat on the other side. And then, 2-3 times per week lower-body strength training with 3-4 med-glute-focused exercises from the list I showed you above. Good luck and let me know how this works out for you.

@Fitnessdy

Yes, it's good for sciatica (technically) in the sense that many physical therapists recommend this exercise because it strengthens your posterior chain. But the key is to use good form and to make sure it fits your particular biomechanics and symptoms. So, here's my advice. Try one set of 10 glute bridges today. If you're feeling good, try 2-3 sets of 10 tomorrow. Work your way up to 100 within a week or two. And let me know how you feel!

100 at once or 2 sets of 50 etc ?

I know it's in most protocols for diastasis recti, yes. That's because it helps you engage your transversus abdominis, which is the inner abdominal muscle, without crunching or flexing. You engage it altogether, like you do in planks. Plus, glute bridges are great for the glutes and lower back, which support your core.

Can i do this I want to grow my glutes

@Fitnessdy

6 ай бұрын

This exercise will give you a nice glute pump and it strengthens your posterior chain. That said, if you want to grow your glutes, add weights to this exercise. Also sports scientists agree that you need to combine different movement patterns to grow glutes: thrusts (bridges, single-leg bridges, hip thrusts), hip hinges (like deadlifts), squat motions (like squats and lunges), plus hip abductions for the side glutes (like clamshells or lateral thigh raises). Sooo, pick four of these exercises from these categories and do 3 sets of 10-15 reps 3-4 times per week with a challenging weight 🙂
