BODYWEIGHT BRIDGE: Tutorial

The bodyweight bridge is one of my favorite exercises! It's great for building a strong and flexible spine.

While it may seem difficult for some, almost anyone can build up to it with the right progressions.

Funny thing: So today I actually did the video work for a Stand-to-Stand Bridge tutorial (imagine leaning back into a bridge from a standing position). However, I realized I had never posted the tutorial for a normal Bridge on YouTube, so I decided to post this first! It's an older video but I hope you all like it. I don't expect bridging videos to be very popular (most people don't know the exercise or want to do it), but the bridge is still one of my favorite exercises and I'm happy to share it.

as someone who’s never been able to do a bridge and has always wanted to learn, this is incredibly helpful. thank you for this, Hampton!

True dat.

Tusen takk, Hampton! You are one of the sole reasons my day is beautiful. {Seriously, my man. You are the main reason I'm in better shape then I was several months ago. Without your help, I'm not sure I would still be on my fitness journey.}

He is the coolest guy. His way of teaching is par excellence.

At 340lbs (I was 360lbs in January and have been dieting and trying to be more active to turn my physical health around.) my body isn't ready to do a lot of the exercises that you show on your channel... However all of your videos are so wholesome and none of them have ever made me feel ashamed of being unable to do what you do. I love and appreciate your content and I look forward to implementing your tips into my routine as my body gets stronger.

It's incredible how concise your videos are; you manage to fit so much information including progression and troubleshooting in just one minute! Sending love from Singapore, you're really making fitness so accessible!

I cannot thank you enough for not only teaching how to do some great exercises with proper form, but how to actually build up to them safely. This has changed so much about how I progress through workouts, the information you provide has been a blessing.

Im not here for the fitness im actually here because ur just so friendly and so lovely to watch

[mr.k]

one of the very few fitness youtubers who focuses more on giving tips rather than showing off and flexing their bodies! and the best thing I like about his videos is, in spite of being short, his tips actually works! My best wishes for this channel.

This one is called “Chakrasan” in yoga asanas.
I used to always do this
You are really awesome at every workout 🏋🏻‍♀️
Always a pleasure to watch your videos 🙂👍🏻

I've always had the flexibility to do the bridge but not the strength to hold myself up. So thank you for showing me how I can progress towards that. Have a beautiful day!

As a cheerleader, backbends are so important for many things. Back aches? Backbend. Need to pull a back skill? Backbends. It also helps with mediating in a way.

fun fact : this pose is called a 'chakrasana' in yoga and is among the most famous positions of yoga...
peace from India...

I have waited for someone to teach me this!
When I was a child I did bridges all the time and loved that I was able to do it. Puberty hit me hard and I gained a lot of weight, got really conscious about my body and stopped doing sports because other kids would bully me. Now, at almost 30, I really wanna be more healthy and fitter, so I started excercising, and build some of your tips into my routines - now I am glad this video finally showed up in my recommended, so I can safely start working up to someday being able to do the bridge again! Yay!

Doing something like this seems so out of reach to me, but your videos explaining the process is SO encouraging! Starting small can make a difference over time

[foxtroth]

I want to thank you for your open and friendly character. You helped me a lot to become more fit and healthy

[MysticConflux]

Thank you! I've been waiting for these variations.
