Load them to crank your voltage up and build yourself some mighty legs.
4 ways to change change a hip extensions at home:
1. Back position (floor, bench, standing)
2. Arm position ( by your side, behind you, straight ahead, palms up/down)
3. Foot placement (narrow,wide, elevated)
4. Two legs at a time vs one
The Glute Bridge is a useful exercise that changes based on how we place our arms.
