Glute kickbacks are an isolation exercise designed to target and strengthen the glute muscles. This movement focuses on building strength and shape in the glutes while also engaging the hamstrings and core for stability.

Whether performed with a cable machine, resistance bands, or bodyweight, glute kickbacks are a great addition to any lower-body or glute-focused workout. They’re perfect for improving balance, enhancing hip mobility, and helping with overall lower-body strength and tone.
