Want better core stability, lower back health, and stronger glutes? The bird dog exercise is one of the best foundational movements you can add to your routine - if you’re doing it properly.
In this video, I break down how to do bird dogs with perfect form so you can build a stronger core, protect your lower back, and improve overall movement control.
The bird dog is a powerful core stability exercise that trains your deep core muscles, improves spinal stability, and reinforces proper hip alignment. It’s great for beginners, athletes, and anyone dealing with low back tightness or weakness.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn:
• Proper bird dog setup (hands under shoulders, knees under hips)
• How to brace your core correctly
• How to keep your hips square
• Why you should reach long, not high
• How to prevent low back movement
• Why slow and controlled reps matter
If you struggle with low back pain, weak glutes, poor core engagement, or bad posture, this exercise needs to be in your program.
Add this to your warm-up, rehab work, or core training days to improve:
✔ Core strength
✔ Glute activation
✔ Spinal stability
✔ Hip control
✔ Lower back resilience
Make sure you're not rushing it. Control is everything.

If you want, tell me your channel vibe (more aggressive, more educational, more chill), and I’ll tailor the titles more toward your brand.
I did one exercise on my favourite hip openers, and called it "my favorite hop openers" is that okay if it's just 1 exercise?
Yeah — it’s not wrong, but it can feel slightly misleading.
If you say “my favorite hip openers”, people naturally expect multiple exercises. If it’s just one, a few viewers might think:
“Wait… that’s it?”
That small expectation mismatch can hurt retention.
Better options if it’s just ONE:
My Favorite Hip Opener
The ONLY Hip Opener I’m Doing Right Now
My Go-To Hip Opener
The Best Hip Opener You’re Not Doing
If I Could Only Do 1 Hip Opener…
My #1 Hip Opener for Tight Hips
Those feel more intentional and strong.
If your brand style is punchy (like your other cover texts), I’d go with:
“Tight Hips? Do This.”
or
“The Only Hip Opener You Need.”
If you want, tell me the specific exercise and I’ll help you dial the title for max clicks + retention.
