Everyone has their own preferences but hip thrusts are the way to go imo. There are many different machines and set ups that you can use to perform this movement but personally I’ve been loving them on the smith machine! I always make this the first lift of my glute/ hamstring day so I’m not fatigued yet and am able to put my full effort into substantially loading the movement to produce high mechanical tension in my glute. Hip thrusts challenge the glutes in a shortened position which is unlike many other lower body exercises and they emphasize hip extension which is the primary action of the glute max. Due to the setup they are pretty easy to load more weight and push near to failure which is also what contributes to why they are such a good movement for glute hypertrophy. ~Wearing @DFYNE winter berry set, use code MABEL to support and save 🤍 #legday #leggains #gymmotivation #gymgirl #glutesworkout
