How To Do The Clamshell Exercise - Kinetic Sports Rehab

Clamshell Exercise - Tangelo Health

Transcript:

Today we're going to go over the clamshell exercise. This is really important for glute activation.

So you're going to set up side-laying, hips stacked, shoulders stacked. You want to bend those knees just forward of the hip a little bit with the feet stacked up with the rest of the body. You want to keep the hips stacked, and make a little lift and lower of the top knee, just like that.

So make sure, as you're lifting that knee up, that hip doesn't move back with it, so that's why I'm putting my hand on the hip, just so I can feel that sensation, making sure that hip is staying where it is. Have the rest of the upper body just kind of relaxed. Just going nice and slow, trying to get at that whole glute muscle right in the back of the hip."
