Buttocks

Bridge exercise

Aim of the exercise
While carrying a heavy load in a badly adjusted backpack, we tend to bend the body too much forwards. A well-trained buttocks and lower back musculature (erector spinae) takes care of maintaining the body in the erected position.

Exercise
On a flat surface, we take the race knee starting position. Then we alternate at stretching the legs horizontally, stopping for a few moments so as to extend the muscles of each leg. In addition, we can stretch the arms diagonally. This exercise is to be repeated in three series of 20 repetitions per side with a short pause in between.
