Save this for lifted glutes ✨ After 20 years of teaching Pilates and training runway models, this is one of the lower-body series I’m asked for again and again when the goal is strong, lifted glutes and lean-looking legs. 🤍 What I love about this sequence is that both legs are working the entire time. Your standing glute stays under constant tension to stabilise the pelvis, while the moving leg works through hip extension and each variation. Your deep core also has to stay switched on to keep the body steady and controlled. ✨ Try this: ✨ Straight Leg Lift x12 ✨ Leg Extension x12 ✨ Pulses x12 ✨ Knee Bend x12 🤍 Complete 4 rounds on each leg Keep a soft bend in the standing knee, hinge forward from the hips and stay grounded through the supporting foot. Focus on keeping the pelvis level and initiating each movement from the glute rather than simply trying to lift the leg higher. As you get stronger, progressively overload the series by increasing your ankle weights, adding more reps or rounds, slowing the tempo for extra time under tension, or adding longer pulses and holds. You can also introduce a resistance band for an extra challenge. 🔥 ✨ Lifted glutes ✨ Lean legs ✨ Stronger deep core Save this for your next glute workout and follow for more Pilates that actually works. 🤍 #Pilates #GluteWorkout #LiftedGlutes #LeanLegs #PilatesWorkout
