Dumbbell Single-leg Hip Thrust

Description

The single-leg hip thrust is performed by placing your upper back on a weight bench, raising one leg, and extending the hip of the other leg to achieve an isolated contraction of the glute. By working each side separately, you can fully isolate your glutes unilaterally, providing maximal training stimulus.
