Glutes and hips in 30 minutes: sumo deadlifts, hip thrusts and Bulgarian lunges with a dumbbell, a band, a chair and a mat.

Caroline Girvan's glute-focused session starts with simple activation drills, including side-lying clams with a band above the knees, before moving to compound lifts like sumo deadlifts, hip thrusts and Bulgarian lunges. The timer runs supersets or trisets with 30 seconds of rest, shown clearly on screen. The video runs about 42 minutes in total.

Who Is It For?

Lifters with some experience who want to build glute and hip strength at home with a weight, a band, a chair or bench and a mat.

Who Is It Not For?

Not ideal without a weight, band and chair or bench, or if you have balance or knee issues, since Bulgarian lunges are demanding.

Key Benefits

Builds strength and muscle in the glutes and adductors while improving hip stability and single-leg balance and mobility.

Things to Keep in Mind

Keep clams small and controlled, pick a weight you can handle on hip thrusts and Bulgarian lunges, and go carefully with your knees and lower back.
