Hip Thrust Form Guide

1 min read

Hip thrusts isolate the glutes better than squats or deadlifts. Sit with upper back against bench, feet planted. Barbell rests across hips (use a pad). Drive through heels, thrusting hips up until body forms a tabletop from knees to shoulders. Squeeze glutes hard at top. Lower with control. Don't hyperextend your lower back at the top—glutes should stop the movement, not spine extension.
