Thruster Overview

The Thruster is a dynamic compound exercise that combines a front squat and an overhead press, effectively targeting multiple muscle groups for strength and power development.

How To Perform the Thruster

  1. Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a barbell at shoulder height with palms facing forward and elbows pointing down.
  2. Engage your core and perform a front squat by bending your knees and hips to lower your body until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
  3. Drive through your heels to stand up explosively, and as you reach the top, press the barbell overhead by fully extending your arms.
  4. Lower the barbell back to shoulder height and immediately begin the next repetition.
  5. Inhale as you squat down and exhale as you press the barbell overhead.
