How to Perform Cable Glute Kick Back
The cable glute kickback is an isolation exercise that targets the glutes by emphasizing hip extension against constant cable resistance. Performed using an ankle strap attached to a low pulley, the movement involves extending one leg backward while keeping the torso stable and the core braced. Controlled tempo and a focused squeeze at the top of the movement help maximize glute activation while minimizing lower-back involvement.
