I’m actually not sure what the exercises themselves are called, so I apologize beforehand if this is a little awkward.
I use some resistance bands for this purpose. They’re fairly cheap on Amazon and work fairly well. The exercises are as follows
I do about 20 reps each leg on each exercise with the heaviest band, so that may be why the progress is so fast. I couple them with my physical therapy exercises that I have to do for surgery. I do 2 days on, 1 day off so the muscle can recover.
Also, if anybody who knows better than I can suggest more exercises, please do. I want to have hips.
Oh, I also am starting up a regimen with my Total Gym here soon with a ton of exercises with that. Just gotta find space to set it up again. Has a ton of leg, hips, and ass exercises that I want to take advantage of as well. My set even came with a workout routine in the box perfect for this purpose. So hopefully that does even more.
hard for me to imagine from text, you’re on your side, would hip-thrusts be different enough you think? could they work?
so i’m imagining, have your back on an elevated surface (couch, bench, etc.) barbell across your hips and hold onto it with your hands, from a relaxed position thrust up so your back, spine, and legs make a 90° angle with your knee
i’ve see folks use dumbells and kettlebells, the weighted balls too, i think the benefit is you can use a ton of weight and progress in a straightforward way (increase weight, improve form)
