Muscle outlines from Body Muscles by Ivan Vulović, Apache 2.0 — regrouped and recoloured for Muscle Train.
Engage your core, lift your top knee towards your chest, rotating your hip outward. Pause, squeeze your glutes, and slowly lower your knee against cable resistance. Maintain a stable, stacked hip position throughout.
To ensure proper form, focus on keeping your hips stacked and aligned throughout the entire exercise, preventing any unwanted forward or backward tilt. Keep your feet firmly together to maximize glute activation and minimize hip sway during the movement. At the peak of the lift, consciously squeeze your glutes to fully engage the target muscles and enhance the exercise's effectiveness. Avoid letting your hips roll outward during the rotation, as this shifts the focus away from your glutes and can strain your lower back; maintain a controlled, stable movement. Control the descent of your leg, resisting the cable's pull to build strength and improve muscle endurance.
