How to Do Donkey Kicks for Better Glutes, Arms, and Core

  • last year
In this video, learn how to perform donkey kicks — an effective and convenient low-impact bodyweight exercise that can help strengthen and stabilize the gluteus maximus, as well as the shoulder and core muscles. To perform basic donkey kicks with proper form, start on all fours and lift one leg towards the ceiling while keeping a 90-degree bend in the leg and flexing the foot, making sure to avoid arching the lower back or rotating the hips. Repeat this exercise for 10 to 16 repetitions on each leg for three sets, and add the movement to your other lower body strength exercises once or twice a week.
