Glute training is one of the most effective ways to improve lower-body strength, stability and shape. These exercises target the glute max, med and min, giving you a balanced mix of strength, activation and shaping movements — perfect for beginners, women over 40, or anyone starting their fitness journey.

Cable Single Leg RDL's *
Stand facing the cable with the handle in the opposite hand to the working leg. Hinge from the hips, keep your spine neutral, and let the cable guide your reach. Keep all your weight through the standing foot and squeeze the glute to return to standing. Use the back leg for balance rather than lift it.

Reverse Hyperextension *
Lie face down on the bench or machine with your hips just off the edge. Lift your legs behind you by squeezing your glutes and hamstrings, keeping your back still and avoiding any swing. Control the lower phase to stay in tension.
Single Leg Hip Thrust - Use DB for harder
Anchor your upper back on the bench and keep one foot planted with the other lifted. Hold the dumbbell on your hip, drive through your heel, and squeeze the glute hard at the top without letting your hips rotate. Use a slow lower to keep full tension on the working side.

Side Leg Press *
Sit slightly sideways on the seat and place your working foot in the centre of the platform. Keep your hips square, brace your core, and press the sled away using your outer quad and glutes. Lower with control and avoid locking out at the top.
