The Shoulders Elevated Hip Lift is a great way to develop the musculature around the hips, specifically the Glutes & to a lesser extent the Hamstrings (whilst also releasing the Quadriceps & Hip Flexors at the front of the legs). The Double Leg Bridge (and the Hip Lift movements which will follow) also provides a great opportunity to learn about creating a neutral Pelvis and brings awareness to what an arched, rounded, and aligned lumbar spine feels like.
This movement is very similar to the Double Leg Bridge; however, the added demand is the increased range of motion throughout the movement.
