Barbell Hip Thrust
Expert Advice
Keep your chin tucked and ribs down to maintain a neutral spine and prevent hyperextension of the lower back at the top of the movement.
How-to-do Steps
- Sit on the ground with a bench behind you and a barbell over your legs.
- Lean back against the bench so that your shoulder blades are near the top of it.
- Drive through your feet, extending your hips vertically with the barbell.
- Squeeze your glutes at the top, then lower the hips back down.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
