Hip Thrust Overview

The Hip Thrust is an effective lower body exercise targeting the glutes, hamstrings, and core, enhancing strength, power, and overall hip stability through a controlled thrusting motion.

Muscles Worked

Equipment Needed

Barbell, Bench

How To Perform the Hip Thrust

  1. Sit on the ground with your upper back against a bench or sturdy surface and your feet flat on the floor, shoulder-width apart.
  2. Roll a barbell over your hips and position it in the crease of your hips. Use padding if necessary for comfort.
  3. Brace your core, keep your chin tucked, and drive through your heels to lift your hips towards the ceiling.
  4. Fully extend your hips until your body forms a straight line from your knees to your shoulders, squeezing your glutes at the top.
  5. Lower your hips back down to the starting position in a controlled manner.
  6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
