He's THE glute man!! Been following his work since early days, he's awesome and love his knowledge that he shares!
Bret is an absolute down to earth genius. I’ve worked out at his gym in SD and he really is so smart and chill.
Been waiting for this one ! Glad it’s finally here
This is some of the most informative content I’ve ever seen. Wish I would have seen it when it first came out!
Glad it helps now!
Yes! Start blogging again👏🏼👏🏼Always look forward to reading your writings
I started doing hip thrusts a few months ago, because Sal said they would help improve my deadlifts. And he was right!
Good for you
A master class in biomechanics, strength physiology, and how to get jacked. History is replete with brilliant men in their fields discussing what they loved -- Tolkien, Lewis, and the Inklings; Jung and Freud come to mind. These guys are like them: the best in their field, but without the nasty in-fighting of the others lol.
Tasty tidbits are the discussion at 47:16 about why free weight compound movements are superior to machines for hypertrophy as well as function (hint: it has to do with evolution, and Sal figured this out long ago); and the discussion regarding the inherent value of experiential wisdom when scientific studies cannot provide an answer regarding what method or exercise works best. This has been discussed at length in the fields of medicine and nutrition where practitioners from decades ago possessed a greater breadth of knowledge than the highly specialized ones of today who sometimes tend to rely excessively on scientific studies.
Justin, at 45:50, says, “Isn’t the irradiation effect -- a louder signal from more muscles . . . (the reason why compound movements stimulate more growth) . . . ?” Bret replies, “I don’t think so.” Then, at 47:52, he and Sal seem to agree with what Justin said.
“Anyone who wants good upper glutes, do more abduction.” - Bret, The Glute Guru (and personal trainer par excellence) at 1:00:35
Bret’s research with force plates, EMG activity, and performance effects has added immeasurably to the field, and everything he discusses in this video is pure gold.
He didn’t finish saying how he went from math teacher to where he is today. I really wanted to know as I am also currently a teacher thinking about exercise and fitness more.
Agreed
Yea they messed up not going step by step with that
I think he’s talked about it before in another video but basically
-got masters
-wrote his paper on exercise
-professor was like dude you should do fitness
-he taught 6 years
-had a big garage gym
-wanted to have a big space and kept saving to buy more fitness equipment
-too cluttered so he opened a real gym
-learned about the glute bridge and hips and developed the hip thrust
-focus on the glutes because he didn’t have an ass lol
-had a lot of elite TFS equipment and looked up to the owner’s gym and powerlifting
-learned about powerlifting
-power racks /
Platforms / fancy attachments as per what the experts at the time told him
-pursued his dream and it grew from there
I’ve listened to a lot of episodes .. this is my favorite so far. The information conversation is so interesting..
I am very intrigued to find out how much of this interview went into the MAPS ANABOLIC ADVANCE program. Favorite episode even though I’m 3 years late!
id like to st aside this episode as many was awesome and listening to BRET how humble , knowledge and the rsamblance of how I see this Fitness world and The importance of staying humble.
People like him are the ones who give their knowledge and really want to teach , not get famous .im the same way, and as a trainer of nearly 16 years that stays or goes underground really can relate to all this ..
Getting some amazing results with the Glute Lab Workouts. Just not sure about the history of the hip thrust. Just because there are not many photos from way back then, doesn't mean people were not doing them. Hey putting dumbells on the hips for hip thrusts (in an aerobics class) has been around forever. Mind you they were those little pink 3-5 pound weights, a big burn none the less. Taking pictures while working out was not a thing back then. And the books available on bodybuilding were so limited compared to now. Big glute muscle hypertrophy is trending, and let's hope it's here to stay. Thank You!
One of the best pod cast you guys have is definitely this one. So much great information came out here. Thank you..💯🔥💪🏽🙏🏽
My favorite episode of all !! Loved it
This was a really great podcast. I really appreciate poking holes in the EMG studies and shedding light on why that's not the end-all be-all of studying exercise selection.
This is the best one iv watched so far i love brett contraras
I really enjoyed watching this episode. So fun watching you interviewed Brett. He is so humble and funny. And he blushed when you guys asked him about his ass lol.
Great interview guys! I've followed Bret for a long time, it was good to get to know more about where he comes from and his mindset.
CrossFit is definitely what got me into squats and pulls. Great podcast episode. Made a new subscriber out of me.
This was a great podcast! Listened from beginning to end. You can tell bret is not just the glute guy, and is very knowledgeable on strength & conditioning research. Loved the talk about keeping routines simple. a lot of us think we are advanced just because we've been in the gym for years, but most of it we haven't been pushing it. if you can do a set of 10 chin ups, you can definitely say you're advanced.
I can do 10 with 60 pounds added. But then again I'm pretty light
Every woman needs a Glute guru!!! Thank you….
Such a great interview.....
Love Brett! Quality dude.
Also when he says t-nation I hear "teen asian" hahaha
Thank you for this comment because I would have been thinking he was saying Teen Asian the whole video otherwise. The first time he said it I was like WTF?! lol
Yeah thanks, I for sure heard "Teen Asian".
Bret Contreras is so hilarious 🤣🤣🤣 I love him!
Can. You do hip thrusters if you have a herniated disc
Awesome podcast! So much wisdom and knowledge packed in this episode!
Got tgfup
What does that mean?
Love love love the human being Bret Contreras is !!!!! ❤️🙌🏼
Us too!
I wish my Math teacher looked like that when I was in school! lol would have paid much better attention
Super interesting talk
I work as a supervisor in a fast paced grocery store and I’m throwing pallets and lifting heavy boxes. I ride my electric bike twenty min to and from work.Sometimes when I workout before work I’m so tired from work and everything else. I’ll try the three day full body to see if that will work better.Thank you for this video.
How did it work for you and where did you find it? I, too, want to try as my 5-6 day body split is getting hard to maintain. Thank you!
Sal's energy in this episode is fire.
I saw a barbell hip thrust in the 1980s. The guy was into Ellington Darden and Mike Mentzer, so maybe he got it from them. Powerlifters used to do it, too.
Mostly they just used a few plates though
The guy in the blue was right; back then it was “in the closet”....widely considered a weird augmentation exercise, something like Jack LaLane might do. No one was advertising, and I gotta admit we shook our heads every time we saw that guy doing it.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who raised an eyebrow when he said, "I invented the barbell hip thrust."
Surely, he's smart enough to know that's complete BS.
I was always creative in the gym and I remember wondering how I could target my glutes directly and I wound up grabbing a dumbbell and throwing it on my lap to do hip thrusts in 2013. This is before I even knew about UA-cam, I'm not even sure I knew about Bodybuilding.com yet. I had never seen it before. After a couple weeks I switched to a barbell for more weight. I thought for sure I'd get in trouble or laughed at for doing an exercise that looked inappropriate or suggestive, and I actually laughed at myself thinking I was subconsciously training for the bedroom. 🤣
Surely, there's been plenty of people who have come to the same basic conclusion of how to target glutes. It's not rocket surgery...
Takes a lot of ego to casually make a bold claim like that.
@@Isaiah-ft5nx Agree!
“It’s not rocket surgery” 🤣
I'd say the amount of intramuscular force generated through more muscle fibers, over a larger range of motion, is why compound or the classic "meat and potatoes" lifts build more muscle than isolation movements.
This guy is a muscle and body genius
Without a doubt
❤Bret
I recently started his monthly program "booty by bret" at first glance it doesn't look like enough volume. Let me tell you! My ass was on fire and I felt like I was going to die 😅
Great programming agree...as it really focuses on compound movements. Do wish he had a bit more back and upper body movements in the full body. Which I just add in myself. I've never done so many barbell squats in my life!!! If you are this month single leg and upper program...ahhhhh I've said a few choice words while doing it lol.
The man himself
Listening to this guy for five seconds you know he’s not full of shit
Bruh, my career as a trainer is built on the back of this man 😂😆😭
hahah...now that I think about it I see the trainers at my gym helping the women work on their glutes. One of them asked me if I knew who Bret Contreras was. He has women into the gym and that is a great thing even if they just want to work out their glutes at first. He really pushes compound lifts which leads them to advance beyond glutes.
Funny and informative
Glad you think so!
I'm not a teacher and I used to think it didn't make much but if you work summer and you can retire in 25 years and if you get pension (which isn't around for most jobs anymore) and live to 100, $60k top teacher salary isn't so bad when you do the math.
Re the Soviets; while one of their big motivators in exploring exercise science was to dominate the Olympics (and thus show the superiority of the communist system), their end goal was a better-trained, stronger and faster Soviet soldier, to help dominate in the military arena, where stakes are higher than in athletics.

Get him on Rogan
How many times a week should one train flutes whose not training to grow them. My wagon is big enough lol
Working out is so confusing 🤯🤯🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️
It doesn’t have to be! My wife started doing a “10 minute kettlebell workout with Amy” on UA-cam and she shaped up really good just from that. You don’t need to start out fancy. Just good diet and some resistance training, walking and great sleep. You will be set!
I was so freaken confused too so, I ended getting a trainer and started powerlifting with him 2x a week then train another 2 days on my own. I walk on avg 5 miles a day 5x a week and just keep my calorie intake at 1500. Started seeing results. Mind you I have 80 pounds left to lose. I should of started sooner.
For people that don't know Scott's Dale AZ is like California's version of Beverly HIlls
Amazing!
edit: he a bad man. come for the info. not idolize.
I want to see a pic of the results that he is most proud of. Show me the worst behind he has ever trained and the results. This has got me wanting to train my glutes more.
Follow him on Instagram. He has lots of those pictures. It's pretty impressive
Go to his UA-cam page
Custom "the ass man" plates.
Loving all these groomed Beards.
Ooh la la!!

i always thought mick blue was the top glute guru...
If he's the glute guy, why doesn't he have an outstanding set of glutes?
Contreras is a joke.
Care to elaborate?
