This is a great work out, used to work out for me in the past, but now my gut gets in the way putting pressure on my stomach (actual) feeling like I’m causing ulsers to reopen
And glutes need to be strong. Strong glutes make you minimize chances of back and knee pains. It also helps in other lifts such as deadlifts and squats. Plus it adds onto you looking good
@@charitygracestanford881 you should try to wear flat shoes. Those aren't. They are for running etc. Leg exercises often require really rooting your foot to the ground for stability and proper activation.
@@atticusrumi Yeah, I know. I’ve figured out after a while of having the shoes they’re not that great at all. I am looking to get flatter shoes but for now I just lift and run in socks and it’s helped a LOT with balance!
I'm new to this channel and man I can't thank you enough! I love weight lifting, but I have no one IRL to teach me thine ways, and I'm not going to pay a small fortune for a trainer at the gym when I have TH-cam. Channels like this one have been a life (and money) saver for me. Thank you for what you do! It does not go unnoticed and it's very much appreciated by us frugal amateurs!
Do not listen to this guy. If you are giving a demo Who will tell that the bench has to be supported by something heavy. I just followed him and the bench slid back and badly hurt my neck 🤬
I'd do this exercise a couple of ways. Vary the stance and you get different effect. feet closer together and slight forward position of your shins and you've got an exercise.that turns your hamstrings into hamstrongs. Wider stance with upright shins targets the glutes a lot more. Stronger hams and glutes contribute to a better feel when you do your squats.
Fantastic video! Well worded, well spoken and extremely informative. Thank you for the well and simply presented information. I've recently joined a gym (10 days ago) at 31 to build overall shape (think 6'0" x 170) and this is a fantastic exercise for the all-too-often overlooked glutes. This is the first MPTV video I've seen but definitely won't be the last. Thanks guys.
Thank you so much for this.. I was struggling at the gym trying to figure out how to get the bar across me while also laying on the bench..had to go do something else!
Thanks! I had a horrible session with my personal trainer yesterday trying to get me to do hip thrusts, but she didn't explain how to do it properly it was so frustrating. I wish I had watched this earlier
Yes great video. I try do hip Thrusts 2 times a week and I try to do 5 sets to start off and doing 15 reps, then as I add the weight I decrease the reps. On the last set I take off all the weight and start with the weight that I started with and do as many as I can and at the end I try to hold it for 10 seconds. I also put on the resistance band and sometimes do single leg hip Thrusts right after. This is actually my favorite exercise even though at my gym not to many women or men do it.
Thank you for this video. After doing a sit down office job for 15 years my rear has become flat and I want to build my glutes. I don't have a bench, is it OK to sit on the sofa?
The way he gets from sitting on the floor to the starting position - it is easy with the light weight he is using. But gets much harder once you really add the load and feels dangerous to the spine. Could never figure out how people do it, maybe my torso is just too short to reach the bench while seated. Anyways, sticking to the smith machine for now, it lets me start a bit above the ground
Does your butt need to touch the floor?! Can’t seem to get a straight answer on this and I see you didn’t go all the way down. To me, it makes sense not to touch the floor necessarily but??
Hello! I’m somewhat of a beginner to this exercise but not to lifting in general. I do them at home with my own barbell ranging from 65-110 lbs. I follow all of the tips on how to not feel it so much in your hamstrings or quads, and I video myself. It seems to look fine and I get full hip extension with a posterior tilt. I definitely feel it in my glutes but I still tend to feel it quite a bit in my hamstrings. I have been playing around a lot with my feet placement also but I can’t seem to get it right yet. Can bench height affect this? Assuming my form and spinal alignment are good, is there anything else you can recommend? Thanks!
Late reply, but you're still using your other muscles when doing this movement. The point is that you feel it most in your glutes, or whatever muscle you're targeting in other exercises. You still need your quads and hamstrings to move lol.
Yes, when using a free (non-fixed) barbell you get more effective results out of the movement. It makes you work harder to stabilize/build coordination.
what really helped me was using a resistance band (Medium weight) along with this excercise to finally feel the glutes! just putting that out there to help someone
This is so useful. In my case is pretty difficult for me to perform this exercise because my left leg is shorter than my right leg (1.5cm of difference). I’m not going to give up tho. Thank you
I've been having problems getting back out from under the bar on this exercise because I use a smaller pre-loaded bar with smaller but heavier plates where I can't simply roll out like I see you could with large plates like this. I'm up to 70 pounds and find myself a) getting stuck under the bar and not knowing how to get back out (I'm a woman who has been working on upper body strength but 70 is where it starts presenting a challenge in this situation) and b) having pain the next day in my pelvic region even after using a pad. I'm currently doing four sets of 15 at this weight. Watching this vid makes me think I need to just get one of the larger bars and load it with larger, lighter plates but it's more of a hassle because the one I use is pre-loaded. Has anyone ever used the type of bars I'm talking about and had success and been able to "escape" from the exercise easily? I also wonder if using the smaller bar is contributing to the pain since the bar is spreading its weight across a smaller surface area.
He answered my question about pain the bar delivers in the hip region. Of course padding up but I find dumbells on bothe or either side gives a target especially on the floor and not the bench. Thanx always need to improve on this exercise.
hi , I tried doing the hip thrust with a barbel plate and my lower back takes the work rather than the glutes . Am i doing someting wrong here. I have bad glutes
Great video. I'm guessing that this exercise should be performed atleast twice a week? I know it probably depends on a lot of factors (splits vs full body, heavy vs higher reps etc.. .), but I'd still like to know your thoughts.

🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣

*dozens in child support lets be honest. These arent good kids
Yo I am watching this at my gym and when I saw this laugh outloud
Turns out I was struggling with the shin placement. Thanks so much I didn’t even realise!
I find it so hard to find the proper set up, it's so uncomfortable.
This is a great work out, used to work out for me in the past, but now my gut gets in the way putting pressure on my stomach (actual) feeling like I’m causing ulsers to reopen
Hi! Thank tou so much for teaching me the right form for thia exercise. God Bless ;(;)
Great video brother. thx
Are you supposed to have anterior or posterior pelvic tilt? He said posterior but it looked like he motioned an interior tilt.
Garrett Miles POSTERIOR :) PPT.
The floor movement is just like kegels.... so what's the benefits of this exercise
It develops your gluteus maximus.
And glutes need to be strong. Strong glutes make you minimize chances of back and knee pains. It also helps in other lifts such as deadlifts and squats. Plus it adds onto you looking good
Hardest exercise in my routine hands down. Do em right and there's nothing left but burning glutes.
Facts
Dude. Lol 🔥
Thought I was doing em wrong because I didn’t feel my hamstring on 1 leg getting worked
Still working on feeling it on y glutes only. Sometimes I get it right other times I have to move around a lot
Ive been lifting for years, and this is the first time im actually doing them. I kinda like this burn😂
Thanks, I needed this exercise to better my sex life
Trust me, your woman will love that you're doing them.
Just come out and say it.
Those shoes are 🔥

We like him too!
Thank you so much for this.. I was struggling at the gym trying to figure out how to get the bar across me while also laying on the bench..had to go do something else!
Where *exactly* did you place the bar? Below, above or ON your manhood? I do not want to be in any pain in that area while doing this exercise.
Below the hip but above your manhood. Hold the barr some as to keep it from rolling to your manhood.
you look like Tim Roth bro, thanks for the tips!
Me: *does it wrong and feels it in quads*
My skinny legs, big butt: well thank you !
I do squats, deadlifts, hamstrings, calves in addition to that
Fixed my quads taking over by getting my chins vertical! Thanks
ITS MAGIC!
How many chins do you have? And how do you get them vertical?
Sandarpan ikr lol like wtf
My wife does this with my brother sometimes.
Hol up
bruh
Aw man
😶
Anyone else feel a bit ... awkward doing these at the gym?
Me ... no one does hip thrusts in my gym 😑
There are other exercises for the glutes.
Its very hard too just set it up i find that difficult
Thanks! I had a horrible session with my personal trainer yesterday trying to get me to do hip thrusts, but she didn't explain how to do it properly it was so frustrating. I wish I had watched this earlier
It’s hilarious how significant your voice cracks when you bend at the bench lol
Tf do you mean in lign with your shoulders? Its just 2 points so its always in lign with your shoulders
Very helpful. Will definitely implement this in training my clients and myself!
Joseph Stafford whoot whoot!
Hell yeah. Fuck that bar. Make those weights your bitch.

How to put it on and then take it off when the plates are smaller and you can't roll the barbell over your body?
This is the best video on YT for this thank you so much
Does your butt need to touch the floor?! Can’t seem to get a straight answer on this and I see you didn’t go all the way down. To me, it makes sense not to touch the floor necessarily but??
Oh yeah if your lifting heavy leave a cushion on the bar, helps from getting sore and prevent bruises.
arbitrary PasTime facts bro!
Each time do this workout , I farted like a rollercoaster.
I can’t say I’ve ever heard a rollercoaster fart.
I was wondering why I always felt this in my hamstrings. Thanks for sharing this!!
Pressing through the heels is what helps me feel the top position, wearing my lifting shoes surely does help feel the move at the very top.
Great explaining the small details as well as the more obvious movements! Thanks
Thank you for the helpful tips ! I liked , subscribed and shared this video. Amazing job! Btw you guys are very handsome
Any tips on how to get the barbell on your hips if working alone?
Watch the beginning of the video again and you will see how he does it with the barbell.
ONE LOVE !
Now I gotta compete with guys when it comes to having a big butt.
I don't mind, I'm all for it!

Your hamstrings might just be a lot weaker. Your glutes might also not be warmed up enough. Look into glute activation exercises
Aaah if I do this in front of the girls are they gonna ask my phone number ?
I feel it in the back of my thighs, am im doing this right?
It also works hamstrings a bit.
for some reasons , my upper back hurt like hell it even got bruises from the bench.
Wait wut this video only has 13 likes but almost a million views?
God bless you for thissss omg
Thanks to Bret Contretas for all of this content 8 years ago and creating this exercise. Go watch the OG.
How about if your a bigger dude and tge barbell doesnt roll into place
Glad I started doing these and they work
My gym has the barbell on a wired harness that what I was worried abouy
Im trying to squeeze out more weight on my squats and deadlifts without hurting my back. I think this will help.
It def will my man!
It always gets on my crotch so I avoid this, gimme tips
Do lower weight so you’re not moaning all up in the mic
That's my boy! Keep coming out with these videos, Danny. Love your work!
Thanks following along, Brandon.
I've always done these with the smith machine and its worked for me, but I'm wondering whether using a barbell will be significantly more effective?
Karen Dutton I like and use both regularly.0
@@MindPumpTV thank you

I'm having trouble understanding how to pose my shoulders and arms like it hurts me to put my upper back like that ? Can you give me tips. 😊

When I was a noob I thought these were just to have better sex lol
And what if 135lbs is too heavy? And this move works all quads way too much. BS on glutes or hams.
what really helped me was using a resistance band (Medium weight) along with this excercise to finally feel the glutes! just putting that out there to help someone
Can I use a plyobox for this excercise? A plyobox measuring 12x14x16
This is so useful. In my case is pretty difficult for me to perform this exercise because my left leg is shorter than my right leg (1.5cm of difference). I’m not going to give up tho.
Thank you
Never give up.
There are many other glutes exercises that are as effective as the exercise shown on the video.
single legged exercises might be better for you
I do 315#. It’s why my wife married me
Why does every video with personal address have to include the bloody profile cutaway?!! It's so annoying, so ''look at us, we're so trending'.
I did 600 lb once for 8 reps and man i don't know if my form is wrong or right

Get bigger plates. It makes huge difference
Great video but I'm not sure about the positioning of the neck, maybe he should just extend his neck until it's alligned with his spine
Bruh when he said done from the floor I thought he was gonna use the barbell and it just falls on his face
Is it possible to over extend when you’re at the top or should you go until you hit your peak and hold there?
So helpful! Solved my issues haha thank you 🙏
Hard to take your advice seriously when you're doing barbell exercises with those squishy shoes.
thumbs down too monetized...too many ads

Cosmic Moor Dumbell hip thrusts are great too!
It's hard to get vertical shins when you have a belly in the way. But I am working on it. Practice.
Awesome. Thanks for the info
great ques, been looking for that as i wasn't happy with my performance of this exercise, gold.
Excellent visual tips! Thanks again guys!
Angela Wells Of course! Thanks for tuning in!
@@MindPumpTV Also, Danny is great! I miss you 3 Amigos though.
No but as soon as I go a little heavier than those 10s on each you got, then it really hurts even with a bar pad.

Excellent and simple to follow step by step instructions. My butt felt this in a major way
hello ! love hip thrust but the problem is i can feel the stress on my neck. How to solve the issue ?
The right way is to not do it as a man
Danny, where do you get your compression shorts? It seems like a good quality pair.
I have the same question :)
Every time I see someone doing these at the gym it looks like they are killing their back.
Wow! I think i found an equivalent to Jeff Cav. Thks!!
Is this exercise safe for men's sexual health?doesn't it put pressure on the pelvis
Is it important to only push thru the heels or balls of your feet? Or does it not matter? Generally glute exercises advise heel pushing only.
ok so dont keep your core tight? why does no one say to keep your core tight. this is how you get injured
Thank you! Just graduated from the smith machine…. This is one of the best explanations out there!!
I'm feeling it in hamstrings.
