The prompt

Copy the complete prompt (it wraps the request below so the AI returns a clean, runnable session).

Write me a 20-minute glute and hip-opening yoga flow for an intermediate woman, focused on mobility and range of motion in the hips and glutes. Give me the sequence with hold times in seconds for each pose and breathing cues: cat-cow (60 sec flowing), low lunge each side (45 sec), lizard pose each side (45 sec), pigeon pose each side (60 sec), figure-four / reclined pigeon each side (45 sec), seated wide-legged forward fold (60 sec), reclined spinal twist each side (45 sec), happy baby (45 sec), and a short savasana (60 sec). Cue how to breathe into the stretch and how to back off if anything pinches in the hip or knee. Tell me how often per week to do this for mobility benefits.
Works with Claude, Gemini, Grok or any AI.

Why it's built this way

These hip-opening poses, held long enough, improve range of motion around the hips and glutes and can feel good as recovery between strength sessions. Yoga reliably improves flexibility and is associated with modest improvements in stress and wellbeing. It won't 'shape' or grow the glutes the way resistance training does, think of this as mobility and recovery, not muscle-building.

Who this workout is for

Built with one person in mind: Train regularly, targeted work to grow and shape the glutes.

  • You’re an intermediate-level trainer and you want to build visible muscle.
  • You have access to the kit it calls for: bike.
  • You want a single, repeatable yoga flow you can drop into your week.

Who should adapt or skip it

  • It’s low-risk for healthy adults. Scale the loads and reps to your own level rather than copying the top of every range on day one.
  • As with any new routine, check with a clinician first if you have a medical condition, are injured, pregnant, or returning from a long lay-off. This is general information, not medical advice.

What a 2-week plan looks like

A single session works best on a repeating weekly rhythm. Here’s a simple, balanced two-week block at about 4 sessions a week, on non-consecutive days so you recover between them:

MonTueWedThuFriSatSun
Week 1●●·●·●·
Week 2●●·●·●·

● This session· Rest or a gentle walk

Keep session days apart where you can, and adjust for how you feel. When you paste the AI’s reply into sweatcue, each session runs hands-free with spoken cues and timers.

Run it hands-free in sweatcue

sweatcue is an AI workout dashboard: paste the AI's reply and it runs the whole session on screen and out loud, auto timers, spoken cues for every set, rest and rep, and your live numbers. The AI writes it; sweatcue runs it.
