Prone Glute Squeeze

Is this for yourself or for a patient?

  • HOW: Start by lying face down. Put your toes into the ground. Squeeze your glutes rotating your hips down to the ground.  Hold that contraction for the prescribed amount of time, then relax. Imagine trying to pinch something between your butt cheeks.
  • FEEL: You should feel your glute muscles working. 
  • COMPENSATION: Don’t arch your back.  Only contract your glute muscles.
