Body area
Glutes and Hips
The glutes and hips body area covers hip extension, external rotation, pelvic stability, and controlled hip mobility on the reformer. These patterns show up in footwork, bridging, strap circles, side-lying work, and standing splits progressions. Hip and glute control helps you manage carriage movement without tucking the pelvis or gripping the front of the hip. Spring setting, foot placement, and range all change how much load this area receives. Browse linked exercises here for hip stability and mobility work, then pair with core and lower-body pages for balanced training.
