Bro I think she's asking you to thrust her hips lol

If she's asking you to do them, your glutes aren't good enough smh. Some people react to certain movements better. Try it.

@@Jaeykob lol i was being tongue in cheek bro - I probs will try it at some point, though tbh I dgaf how big my glutes are lol

lol never heard a gf ask this. bf best is to be kind, intelligent and funny. physically not that important but run 5k three days a week, and pushups/pull ups/ shoulder press and that's all you need at 10% body fat, and at least 6 feet. butt is the ONLY muscle most girls need to seriously work, otherwise a girl just needs general fitness like a dude (running, pushups/pullups) and to be slender imo. peace.

Just embrace the thrusts bro your girl will thank you for it. Go from lightly touching her walls in doggy to rag-dolling her through the damn bedroom wall. It also helps you at the top of your dead’s and squats too, it’s a win-win 🤙

Perhaps because the hip thrust is more isolated and despite the double glute effect of a squat vs. the thrust, the major benefit is still to the quads. Either way, they seem to say here that they're complimentary so I guess I better start thrusting. 🤷‍♀️

how heavy?

Jeff nippard based his views for glute training largely off of Bret contreras research. Bret's research still shows that the hip thrust is a better exercise, even in studies comparing identical twins.

@@rad_lad_2715 Yeah you're right, he did base it from Bret. I dunno though, this new study mentioned by Mind Pump seems like it was designed fairly well. Guess I'll just keeping doing squats AND hip thrusts lol

Squads is the number #1 exercise to grow fast quads and glutes. It should never be left out in your exercise in leg day if you want better results. Hip thrusts does well or seem like it does but it hits more the lower back or posture. If you do just normal back exercises like row cables etc and do treadmill, you can lose some back fat and it gives it the glutes more noticeable look and its fact that squads does grow faster than hip thrusts. I’ve done squads for just 3 months and seen really good results and fast. You can also do sumo squads which help more inner thigh there’s various of squads depending on your body type where you want to target less or more but squads is the best and shouldn’t be left out if you want to see better and fast results in legs/glutes. Everything else could be done like lunges, leg press and etc. which are also very good leg exercises too. (You can also include the hip thrusts) if only squads aren’t working for you but you should do it properly and to the max to see really good results and that should be same in any exercise because hip thrust aren’t necessary for our workout but always have squads it’s a must because if you do just hip thrust and no other leg exercises, trust me your wasting your time and it’ll be very slow process. You must involve other leg exercises especially squads. And it’s uncommon if squads won’t work for fast and better results for legs and glutes, many people just don’t try their hardest or not doing them properly.

@@jacquelinel2o9 like what I said squats never helped like hip thrust does. I'm already quad dominant I dont want more muscles in my legs. I do it occasionally. Right now all I'm doing is hip thrust. Hip thrust targets just my glutes. I know that because I feel the burn the next day when ever I do it. I also measure my glutes and saw spme progress by doing it. I like sump deadlift to but I don't do it as much because it's risky for my back. I did all that you mentioned but when I incorporated hip thrust or I focus on hip thrust that's when I see better results.

@@nursenica1632 You can try kneeling squads to hit the glutes more. Maybe a hip hinge if you are quad dominant and that could be fixed.. usually it occurs if your not doing squad properly, you should make sure squads are not force to your knee, don’t lean forward, keep your back straight, don’t push your knees together when doing a squad that’s very important, needs to be a 90 degree angel when squatting and squad almost to the point your sitting in a chair or falling but not. That’s a proper way to make sure your hitting every parts equally and not missing out your glutes. Also make sure the glutes are dropping first than your knees that changes it as well. I’m not an expert but I know that squads works effectively great! If it’s done right! I’ve done it myself I went to the gym 3 months ago for the first time and I already see results. Back fats is other reason why your upper glutes don’t stick out as much, I do back exercises and cardio and it defined my upper glutes more. There’s a lot things here and there. Maybe you can try these and give time to see how it goes if it does not work at all than I would say do hip thrusts if that’s the only thing that help you more but do include other leg exercises. :)

@@jacquelinel2o9 I dont know I've seen so many women at the gym with big butts that only do hip thrust, that's why I started doing it. It works for me. And less effort lol . if it works for you great. But hip thrust is my go-to

@@jacquelinel2o9 I do leg exercises occasionally. I have thunder thighs trust me haha. Thanks for the advice.

Hip thrusts target upper glutes, the part where your butt looks more lifted and helps your butt look more pronounced. Whereas it’s easy to not target the upper glute when doing squats, they tend to hit your lower glutes and hamstrings more.

@@PlayshotKalo thanks for the information 😃

Super agree!!!

it's actually the dead weight

I still believe the hip thrust is the main glute builder...

He also has an entire empire built on glute goals.....one would hardly want to go around saying just do some squats.....no one gonna sell any books or programs doing that.....I don't recall Arnie having hip thrusts in his blueprint either

Bret Contreras doing "studies" that shows the hip thrust is superior...I have a house who was previously owned by a nigerian prince I would like to sell you for a very special price lol

only professionals should do that. no reason to risk damaging your knees. if you don't make money off your naked body that's not worth the benefits.

@@u235u235u235 or you know, you can learn how to properly do squats before you get to serious weights

@@pointless132 not worth the risk of injury unless you make money off your naked body.

If u know how to squat effectively & train smart , the knees are NEVER an issue.

@@brentonhickman2739 no risk of injury always an issue and increases with more weight.

I know Adam strongly believes in sumo variation for glute development

How long have iPhones been around compared to landlines? Silly logic. Time improves in some cases.

@@TripDadLife not in this one

Good stuff!

@@MindPumpShow Thanks for the great content!

Lunges light my glutes up like nothing else

Yes but you can overload the squat heavier than lunges

@@goncalobarbosa110 lunges have a greater range of motion especially when doing walking lunges

@@rad_lad_2715 I don't think so, it depends on the person but if you sqiar ass to grass the range of motion is greater

@@goncalobarbosa110 an ass to grass squat and a deep lunge should have roughly the same level of flexion at the hip. however, walking lunges take the glutes through a greater range of hip extension allowing lunges to have a greater overall range of motion

Interesting. I can do 110lbs on squats and to 12 reps but 220lbs on hip thrust (both counting barbell) Quite the opposite. Maybe I should stop training glutes.

🤭🤣

17.5 usually. 18 if I’m heavy

Same boat. Hip thrust

RDL all the way

Reading this gave me a brain aneurysm

@@Daniel_WR_Hart I'd prefer not feeling a squad in my glutes tbh

Why would you want a whole squad up your glutes?

You don't even get a full range of motion with hip thrusts
