Sliding Floor Bridge Curl on Towel
Hips held up in a bridge, the heels slide in on towels toward the glutes and back out; the hips never come down between reps.
How to do it
Setup
Lying on the back, heels on a folded towel on a smooth floor, hips lifted into a bridge, arms on the floor.
Steps
- Pull the heels in toward the glutes, keeping the hips high.
- Squeeze the glutes as the knees bend.
- Slide the heels back out slowly without dropping the hips.
Common mistakes
Hips sagging as the legs straighten: hold the bridge the whole set. Heels racing out: the slow slide out is half the work. Pressing the towel with the toes: the heels drive it.
Breathing
Exhale pulling the heels in, inhale sliding out.
