The Hip extension HK-stance workout is designed to primarily engage the glutes using bodyweight exercises.

By utilizing bodyweight, this workout targets the glute muscles more effectively, promoting strength and stability.

The exercises involved in this workout focus on hip extension movements, activating the glutes to a greater extent.

While other muscles may be involved as secondary movers, the bodyweight exercises primarily engage the glutes for maximum impact.

Stand with your feet hip-width apart, keeping your back straight and your core engaged.
Shift your weight onto your left leg, keeping a slight bend in your knee.
Extend your right leg straight back, keeping it in line with your body.
Keep your right foot flexed and your toes pointing towards the ground.
Squeeze your glutes and lift your right leg as high as you can without arching your back.
Hold the position for a moment, focusing on contracting your glutes.
Lower your right leg back down to the starting position.

Focus on proper alignment: Start by standing tall with your feet hip-width apart and your toes pointing forward. Engage your core by gently drawing your belly button in towards your spine. This will create a stable base for the exercise and help you maintain good form throughout.
Initiate the movement from your glutes: As you begin the hip extension HK-stance exercise, imagine your glutes as the primary movers. Squeeze your glutes and think about driving your hips forward and upward. This will help you engage the right muscles and maximize the benefits of the exercise.
Maintain a neutral spine: Throughout the movement, it’s crucial to keep your spine in a neutral position. Avoid arching your lower back excessively or rounding your shoulders forward. Imagine a straight line running from the top of your head to your tailbone, and strive to maintain that alignment.
Control the movement: Remember that quality is more important than quantity. Avoid using momentum to swing your leg up and instead focus on controlled and deliberate movements. This will ensure that your glutes are effectively targeted and help prevent any strain or injury.
Progress gradually: If you’re a beginner, it’s important to start with a manageable range of motion and gradually increase it as you get stronger and more comfortable with the exercise. Don’t push yourself too hard too soon. Listen
