Common mistakes

  • You push through the toes, shifting the work into the quads and hamstrings.

  • You crank the lower back into an arch at the top instead of finishing with the glutes.

  • You bounce the hips up and down without ever holding the top.

What to focus on

  • Keep the ribs down and finish the rep with a glute squeeze, not a back arch.

  • Hold the top position for a full second or two — the pause is what switches the glutes on.
