Single Leg Hip Thrust!

Single Leg Hip Thrust: This is another effective variation of the hip thrust, but with only a single leg. No equipment is needed, just your own bodyweight which makes set up quick and easy. I love this exercise because you also get some unilateral/single leg strength training benefits as well. I like to do high reps on this as well as add in a 1 sec isometric hold/pause at the top of each rep. To increase the intensity and to add more of a challenge you could elevate your feet onto a bench, so you end up with your whole body elevated.This particular single leg version is what I'm currently doing in my own personal strength training plan for some assistance work for the lower body.
