How to do it

  1. Set up in a side plank with your top hand or feet in the TRX.
  2. Drive your hip up into a straight diagonal line.
  3. Lower your bottom hip toward the floor with control.
  4. Drive it back up to the top, finish your reps, then switch sides.

The one cue that matters

Move only at the hip and keep your shoulders stacked, no twisting the torso.

Muscles worked

The TRX Hip Drop isolates the Core — no passengers. That makes it a clean tool for adding targeted core volume without extra fatigue.

FAQ

What muscles does the TRX Hip Drop work?

The TRX Hip Drop primarily works the Core.

What if I can't do many reps yet?

Shorten the range or use an easier variation, and stop 1 to 2 reps before failure. Reps build fast when you train just shy of your limit.

One side at a time?

Yes, it's a unilateral movement. Start with your weaker side and match the reps with your stronger side so no side gets ahead.
