Fight to the finish

-

This intense finisher is designed to use your energy reserves to wring every last bit of work out of those glutes of yours (you know, in case you aren’t in enough pain already). It ain’t easy – but it’s worth it. Ready? Come on then You’re familiar with the glute bridge – well, now it’s time to make it your best friend. Run through this circuit three times. Then collapse on the floor crying. Kidding. (Sort of.)

GLUTE BRIDGE

(a) Lie on your back with your knees bent and a small curve in your lower back.

(b) Pushing through your heels, lift your hips until your body is in a straight line from your knees to your shoulders. Without overarchin­g the lower back, squeeze your glutes as hard as you can, then lower back down to the starting position.
