The bridge helps train our overall mobility, improve posture, and strengthen the back of our body. Built up progressively, they're a fantastic exercise.

1.) Find a variation you can do.

2.) Train it once or twice a week for 2-3 sets for as many reps as you can safely do.

3.) Once you hit the "Goal Standard," you can move on to the next harder variation!

The standards are given in terms of reps and sets. You can instead just hold some of these variations for time. In that case, move on whenever you feel ready to safely do so. The sets and reps and purposefully higher than one might expect to encourage people to take their time and train safely. Rushing can lead to injury!

Wall Bridges - 3 Sets of 50
Straight Bridges - 3 Sets of 30
Wall Bridges - 3 Sets of 30
Incline Bridges - 2 Sets of 25
Head Bridges - 2 Sets of 25
Full Bridges - Keep working on perfecting your technique! Straighten your arms and legs a bit. Focus on being an upside-down U more than an upside-down V. Breathe evenly. This can take a long time, so learn to love this!
