*   Reps: 12–20
*   Sets: 3
*   How: Drive through heels, squeeze glutes at the top, keep knees stable.
*   Why it’s knee-friendly: Motion comes from hips, not knees.

##### 2. Hip Thrusts (Bench or Couch)[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69500997-ad90-8007-aa2a-09003ba392a6&action=edit&section=6 "Edit section: 2. Hip Thrusts (Bench or Couch)")

*   Reps: 10–15

### Optional Add-Ons[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69500997-ad90-8007-aa2a-09003ba392a6&action=edit&section=10 "Edit section: Optional Add-Ons")

##### Banded Lateral Walks[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69500997-ad90-8007-aa2a-09003ba392a6&action=edit&section=11 "Edit section: Banded Lateral Walks")

*   Reps: 10–20 steps each way
*   Sets: 2–3
*   Great for glute sides, very knee-friendly.

##### Quad-free Split Squat (Short Stance + Hip Hinge)[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69500997-ad90-8007-aa2a-09003ba392a6&action=edit&section=12 "Edit section: Quad-free Split Squat (Short Stance + Hip Hinge)")

If tolerated, keep torso forward and sit back—not down—to keep tension in glutes and off the knee.

### Weekly Plan[edit](https://freemwiki.com/index.php?title=Openai/69500997-ad90-8007-aa2a-09003ba392a6&action=edit&section=13 "Edit section: Weekly Plan")

Do this 3× weekly, with at least 1 rest day between sessions:

*   Bridges or hip thrusts
*   RDL
*   Kickbacks
*   Side-lying abduction
*   Optional lateral walks

If you want, I can adjust this based on: ➡️ Knee pain level ➡️ Equipment you have ➡️ How long you want workouts to be ➡️ Beginner or advanced level
