You sit on the floor, upper back against a bench, feet flat, and push your hips upwards, contracting your glutes. Simple but terribly effective!<\/p>\n<p>This exercise was popularized by Bret Contreras, nicknamed \u00abThe Glute Guy\u00bb, an American researcher and coach specializing in gluteal training. His research has shown that the hip thrust activates the gluteal muscles far more intensely than conventional squats. The difference is truly impressive!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pourquoi_le_hip_thrust_est-il_si_efficace_pour_les_fessiers\"><\/span>Why is the hip thrust so effective for the glutes?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div style=\"width: 100%; margin: 20px 0;\">\n<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SEdqd1n0cvg\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<p>Unlike squats or lunges, the hip thrust perfectly isolates the gluteus maximus. The amplitude of movement and angle of work ensure maximum contraction of the targeted muscles. And that's exactly what makes all the difference to shapely, muscular buttocks!<\/p>\n<p>The exercise mainly involves the <strong>gluteus maximus<\/strong>, But also the hamstrings and lower back. The position of the pelvis during movement generates constant tension on the glutes, optimizing muscle growth. My customers who have incorporated it into their routine see changes within the first few weeks!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Comment_realiser_correctement_un_hip_thrust\"><\/span>How to perform a hip thrust correctly?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"La_position_de_depart\"><\/span>The starting position<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Sit on the floor with a weight bench behind you. Place your upper back (shoulder blades) against the edge of the bench. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart, flat on the floor, knees bent. If you're adding weight, place a barbell or dumbbell on your hips.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lexecution_du_mouvement\"><\/span>Movement execution<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Push hard on your heels and lift your pelvis towards the ceiling. Your body should form a straight line from shoulders to knees at the highest point. Intensely contract your <strong>glutes<\/strong> At the top of the movement, pause for a second, then slowly lower yourself back down without putting your buttocks completely on the ground. Then do it again!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Les_erreurs_a_eviter\"><\/span>Mistakes to avoid<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Don't arch your back too much at the top of the movement, keeping your spine neutral. Avoid pushing off with your toes - it's really the heels that do the trick. Don't go so high that you arch your back, and stop when your body forms that famous straight line. These little details make all the difference for optimum results!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appareil-minceur.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/hip-thrust-efficacite-activation-fessiers.png\" alt=\"Hip thrust - Efficiency and activation of the glutes\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto; margin: 20px 0;\"><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Quelles_sont_les_variantes_du_hip_thrust\"><\/span>What are the variations of hip thrust?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The hip thrust comes in several versions to suit all levels.

Leave at least 48 hours of rest between two sessions to allow the muscles to recover and develop. Recovery is just as important as the workout itself!<\/p>\n<p>Start with 3 sets of 10 to 12 repetitions if you're just starting out. As the movement becomes easier, gradually increase the load rather than the number of repetitions. The aim is to load the muscles sufficiently to make them grow and tone. You can combine this exercise with other movements for the glutes, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.appareil-minceur.fr\/en\/sport\/hack-squat\/\">Bulgarian squats<\/a> or kickbacks.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hip_thrust_et_appareils_minceur_la_combinaison_gagnante\"><\/span>Hip thrust and slimming machines: a winning combination<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can boost your results by combining hip thrust with targeted slimming technologies.
