I have a home gym so I don't give a shit how gay I look, but fuck hip thrusts. They feel incredibly awkward and unsafe. Deadlifts are more than good enough for me.

I tried it a couple of times, and I just could not get the set up right.

My shoulders kept slipping off the bench I was using, and the bar rested really uncomfortably on my waist.

After a couple failed sets, I just called it quits

It can help assist with a big squat and a deadlift! I do a banded at the hip Romanian DL and lunges for warmup. Its helped me with my knees and lower back from hurting. Feels bretty good desu!

Because it crushes the testicles. You DO have testicles, don't you, OP?

I do them. I need ass gains because mine is Hank Hill tier flat.

Stop caring

There is this thicc girl at my gym, blonde cutie early twenties, she is doing the 3pl8 hip thrust. Her ass is fantastic. How much do the best girls at your gyms hip thrust?

Are your testicles on your hips?

I do it. It helps prevent anterior pelvic tilt that comes with doing a lot of deadlifts

Simeon Panda does em

I mean, why not?

Lol just because at your gym mainly women does it, automatically makes it a threat on your masculinity.

Good accessory exercise for anyone who's playing sport so it strengthens your hips and glutes. Even better when you do it unilaterally to get both legs even for runners/work on imbalance.

I use it for prehab because my shitty old man knees need more glue support.

And yes, good for making your glutes big if you want that as well.

The setup takes so long and you have to move around so much shit. I say screw it and do back extensions with dumbbells.

I do 5x5 with your mom

I deadlift 180kg for 5 and there's a thot at the gym that hip thrusts more than me. And I mean she reps them out, like its easy as fuck. She's not even got a massive ass like an instagram thot, just a regular college girl

My ass must be super weak

Well, guys squat more than 95lbs

fpbp

chicks do this shit on the bench press

hell yeah brother

The only guys I see doing this are DYEL, the actually strong guys just squat and DL

Attention seeking.

it’s a good accessory for posterior chain, you can go heavy as fuck and do a lot of volume without it being as taxing as squats and diddly

How much do you hip thrust? They're relatively easy to get good at but you can't also use a huge amount of momentum on the lift so it can seem like a lot of weight when people aren't being very strict

can**

Literally the best glute exercise. Anyone not doing these is pretending to be fit.

RDL is life.

This is such a meme exercise that only girls do

I do kettlebell swings. They're explosive and make your heart shit its pants. Hip thrusts are pathetic.

I always use the hip station for my glutes and hammies before squatting 5x5. Do 2pl8 for 3x15. The other day as I finished and was about to take the weights off this qt3.14 told me to leave them on. She used it as her warm up set, kek.

Guys do do this, mostly powerlifters from what I've seen. I go to more of a bodybuilder gym though, with a lot of bros. I'll encorperate them eventually

I do these dumb shits with a dumb pillow between my legs because I a based lard ass with a redpilled external femoral rotation.

i only do it because I like it when other dudes stare at me and for a quick second imagine putting me in a mating press no homo

I can't say I like it but I know this feel. Knowing there are gay people out there that probably think about holding me down in the locker room and slamming my boi pussy trips me out sometimes.

muscle proportion

That's what prevents me from doing it, too many boomers sitting on lazy exercise bikes that face towards the free weight area. Don't want those candy-asses watching me make glorious love to the sky

How do I work on my legs without making ass gains?

All my weight goes to my ass and thighs. Even at 15% bf it’s embarrassing.

things that never happened 2.0 edition

unless she's +100kg or male, nobody do the first warm up set with 100 kg

because girls are retarded

Do machine exercises like leg curl, leg extension, seated calf raises that target specific muscles rather than compound movements that work all your leg muscles.

I do them. They target your entire ass where most lifts only hit one area of it. Great accessory for squats and deads

because it's a fucking meme like every other lift women do?
and when they do real lifts they struggle to do just the bar?

I do this with squats and deadlifts, feels good man.

>They target your entire ass
Fuck, I might try these next session. Squats and deads leave me wanting more.

I actually started doing them recently. I really like them. The burn is crazy, though. Makes it tough to sit for a while.

You do them in addition to deadlifts and squats to make your glutes' power maximum.

Put your body higher on the bench. You actually want the top of the bench just at the bottom of the scapulae. Also use a pad. Probably the only exercise where I'd actually suggest someone use a pad without there being some medical reason specific to the person in question.

This is probably the best video about how to do it properly: youtube.com/watch?v=qFxTNOiQIAU

Bodyweight hipthrusts first, then move to bar only. It's gonna take a few tries to get the feel of it it, but you will. Did you learn how to squat, DL and bench right away?

Yeah the burn is a motherfucker like no other.

Romanian deadlift done correctly has better carryover to squat and diddly.

i DONT NEED any more ass gains. Ive been trying literally everything to make my hamstring grow, my fucking glutes just steal ALL my hams and even my quads gains from squats and deads. Ive never had this many gay dudes come onto me and even my friends are asking me if im working my glutes all day like a thot

t-thanks rippetoe

I'm still getting used to doing them, so my soreness might just be exaggerated, but god damn. I do sit down between sets just because it's easier to just chill with the bar already in a good spot before starting my next set, but I have to tilt on to my side so my glutes aren't right on the ground. It's a weird experience, but it feels good in the sense that I know it's working. The burn's also way different between my strength-style sets (4x5 with heavier weight) and my hypertrophy sets (4x12 with lighter weight) that I do on different days in my PHUL routine. I think it's a lift valuable enough to do on both days.

Do you do RDL's or use a leg curl machine? Otherwise embrace it and wear tights in the gym so girls can see you.

Why do women only like meme excersises?

meme gender

I do these for a few weeks once I start to feel my glutes when squatting/deathlifting.
Can't let your ass bottleneck your gains, pimp.

I do it and I'm a girl (male)

Ive begun doing stiff legged deads and leg curls every other workout to see if i csn get the hamstrings up to speed. I dont mind the T-rex look but my legs are so imbalanced right now it hurts to look at from the side. Its all ass and quads, no hamstrings. Wanna kms

By the way, where should I put my feet?
When I do thot thrusts I find I burn out my quads super fast, because they're under constant activation. What am I doing wrong?

>feels girly man

>Activating quads and not almonds during thrusts
Just baka senpai really

Its not first post

>Bro, get your dick off the barbell.

How do I stop feeling my lower back bros?

Guys do sprints or hyperextensions.

because they improve your squats and deadlifts

Focus on doing hip thrusts, your deadlift is gonna skyrocket

user out here double cheeked up on a thursday afternoon

I do 100kg hip thrusts and it's tough for me when the reps go over 10. I really struggle to finish the sets. Not enough juice in the tank to continue getting the reps in.

Sure I could drop it down and finish. But I'm so confused

Weak getting out of the hole on squats, perhaps? Started doing it and found my knee pain improved and I could more comfortably go ATG with 220kg+ on my back (high bar).

Have literally not noticed any muscle gains from it but that's not my goal, I just want to stay lean and strong.

Why women do it is so they can get glutes, but desu I've yet to see any woman who does it that has decent glutes lol

I feel you, I tried hip thrusting with 240kg and my hips hurt, a lot, with a pad, and I also nearly shit myself and threw up.

Going for reps on anything > 100kg also makes me feel the same.

Still, I find it helps improve glute strength.

>obsessing about glutes as a male

that's because you're a borderline homosexual piece of shit. Normal men don't care about isolating their "bubble butt hehe ^_^"

get the fucking rope

there are two flamboyant homosexuals who come in together and do exercises like this at my gym. they're the only men I've seen do it.

>why do only girls do this? Do guys not need the ass gains?

Because they're easy and you get mad Instagram likes for posting the video.

Nice ass-istance exercise for squats/deadlifts. Improves glutes, hams, hip flexors, and counters APT.

Learn proper form, use squat pad, yoga mats, or something else.

I’ve been doing them, apparently I’ve been getting some glute gains. Will incorporate it as a leg day staple.
