  • The hip thrust has been increasing in popularity within the last decade and is arguably one of the most effective movements to target the glutes and posterior chain as a whole.
    While popular, it is a very often butchered exercise when it comes to set up, execution, and even programming. Furthermore, most gyms aren't equipped with nice hip thruster machines, so figuring out how to replicate the hip thrust set up without a set machine can sometimes be a problem.

    I watched a ton of videos but still couldn't figure out why I was mostly feeling it in my quads. Moving my shoulders way up on the bench and not dipping my hips down as far was a game changer. Thanks so much!

    Thanks! I could not figure out how to get the weight on at all! I was holding it vertically and then trying to lower it down. Did not work lol. Now I can actually do this darn exercise!

    I’ve never understood why people hinge their whole upper body just to do a hip thrust. to me you feel it more in your glutes when you just isolate that small movement and thrust just the hips not the whole freaking back.

    His glutes were not sore, if you’ve been deadlifting at all and lifting for a couple months go ahead and slap 225 on that bar.

    This exercise a lot of men don't do but it's the most EFFECTIVE for glutes

    There’s no appropriate area with a bench in my gym unless I move one to the middle of the gym floor and then I will be on stage haha omg 😖

    By far the clearest examples and explanations I've found for this exercise, thank you. I simplified the set-up by putting my bench perpendicular to the wall with its feet against the baseboard. Since I already do bridges from the floor I tried 1 set of 20 body-weight hip thrusts. That went well so I added a light barbell and did 2 sets of 12. Thank you for your instruction!

    Have to work my way up to 45 from 25?? Okay but how do I do that if I can’t roll the bar over my legs?? Just can’t do hip thrusts? Is there a way I can safely lower down with less weight that’s too short?

  • @mcxii5709

    Missing a few little bits here 😅 shimmy? Or just use plates to raise the bar height? Don't go All the way down? We should be looking to lengthen the glute. Lots of little bits wrong in this video ...

    i just simply put the bench horizontal with the legs resting against the wall, that prevent the slide and the fall over, it also gets shorter, so you can do it without "shimmy out the bench" like he does in the video

    Thx for this man. Just setting up was such a pain in the ass. Before I was setting up my bench on a decline and using it as low back support and using the cage pins as stops. I have more ROM doing it this way instead.

    Wow! Incredible helpful! Thank you for this, I honestly thought I was too heavy because I kept pushing the bench. Makes me happy I’ll be able to do this today!

    I have never done this exercise and before I watched this video, I had A LOT of questions. You were clear with directions and described each step and why. I know I am not ready yet, but when I am, I will have the confidence to perform it. Thank you.

    I've been working with a trainer for a while now and hip thrusts have been a struggle for me because I always end up feeling the most strain in my mid and lumbar back afterward. I also have neck injuries, so I can't keep my neck looking straight to activate my posterior tilt properly. I had no idea how big a part the head position played in this exercise. It's not something my trainer has ever mentioned. I'll bring it up to him and see about finding an assist block for my neck during this exercise! Super helpful video, thanks!

    I come across you guys on instagram. I've learnt so much from you from just 3 videos already.

  • @CountessKat73

    Thanks for doing this video. Very informative and instructive. Just about to get a barbell for my home gym and I'm looking for more like this to concentrate on form and technique from the start. Please could you do a series of videos on specific barbell exercises that total beginners can do? I'm 50 yrs old and spend all day sat at a computer so need to be careful. I want to ve successful at this type of exercise and build up my ability sensibly.
