In this clip, we're going to show from maybe a supine bridge position how to work a leg with variable resistance for tubing, choosing a thickness of tubing that will give you a fatigue challenge in a 10- to 15-rep range. So first, come down, get your bridge by taking your pelvis and curling up, pressing forward in the supporting heel. And the further I pull on this resistance, the harder it's going to be. The goal is to stay lifted, you got to have a strong hamstring, a strong squeeze in the glute and hamstring in the supporting leg, slight bend in the working leg. And they're both actually working, but resistance in opposition to the movement with a leg that's extended. We're contracting when we lower, we're contracting as we push up, contracting as we lower. You got to engage the core, stay lifted, nice, flat neck, nice, flat shoulder blades, contract and release. And again, the more I pull away, the more difficult it gets, and then just switch it up to the other side, 10 to 15 reps, three sets on each side.
