Cable Hip Extension

How to do it

1. Attach an ankle cuff to a low cable pulley. Strap the cuff around your ankle and face the machine, holding onto it for support. Stand on the non-working leg with a slight bend in the knee. This will be your starting position.
2. As you exhale, extend your working leg straight behind you by squeezing your glutes. Keep your back straight and avoid arching.
3. Hold the contracted position for a second.
4. Slowly return your leg to the starting position as you breathe in.
5. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions, then switch legs.
