Tips

Maintain a hip elevation, ensuring your body remains level and prevents sagging throughout the exercise to maximize glute engagement. Actively squeeze your glutes throughout each repetition to further stabilize your hips and enhance muscle activation. Brace your core firmly to protect your lower back and maintain a rigid plank position. Perform a controlled march, focusing on slow, deliberate movements to avoid momentum and ensure proper form. Avoid any sagging in your hips, which indicates a lack of core stability or glute engagement, and readjust your position as needed.
