Assisted Lying Glutes Stretch

Lie down on your back. Bend your knees and place your feet flat on the ground. Lift your right leg up and cross it over your left knee. Use your left hand to gently push your right knee away from your body, towards the floor. Hold the stretch for a few seconds, then repeat on the other side.

How to perform the Assisted Lying Glutes Stretch

  1. Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Assisted Lying Glutes Stretch using your assisted.
  2. Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your glutes.
  3. Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.

Coaching cues

  • Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
  • Drive force through your glutes rather than momentum.
  • Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.

Common mistakes

  • Using too much weight and losing positional control.
  • Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
  • Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
