    It seems the op just challenged fitness dogma, and it's pretty much been a gang assault on the op ever since.

    Nah... its cause im a obnoxious *kitten*.... but i love it...

    Plenty of other people have suggested hip thrusts in other threads and nothing like this has ever occurred. i am just one of a kind.

    Here you go. It was taken 4 weeks ago and back then i wasn't holding on to the bar tight enough before lift up so it looks unstable and plates swinging too much. My form is MUCH better now and i really hold on to the bar to stabilize so it doesn't swing as much. I swear to god i did 200 lbs today... ive been doing 195 lbs for a few weeks now...

    The vid is 15 seconds because it's from Instagram. I don't have the original vid anymore

    Nice! :drinker:

    Some people are better at some exercises than others. You really didn't need to prove ****, ya know, but keep on thrusting and maybe use that posterior chain to improve your other lifts. :drinker:

    Have you even read what people had an issue with?

    Also....

    Why were you banned from bb.com for a month?

    For "Calling Out A Raid" on a sub forum. Someone wrote something on a sub forum that was laughable so I went into the more popular forum and told folks to go in that particular forum which they did and started mocking her... I have been banned other times for fighting with others etc

    White Knighting her? Good cause!

    You can't white knight for a female against females. It's more like squirting two cats mating with a water hose.

    I love it when people start topics with a legitimate topic but their toxic personality totally ruins what they were trying to say. Gotta have a 'tude if you're giving advice. Totally gives 'em street cred, yo.

    This went downhill within like 3 comments.
    I'm impressed.

    On a side note, am I the only one who doesn't have barbells in my gym? We only have dumbbells.
    Not sure I can thrust in the gym anyway without laughing at my own intense public perversion.

    Is your gym one of those 24 hour gyms? I used to go to one of those, and they didn't have "free" barbells because there was no one there at night to make sure we didn't kill ourselves with them, so they couldn't get insurance if they had them. We did have one of those rack-things, where the barbell is on a track. Not sure what those are called at the moment.

    WOW, this thread! :laugh:

    I hip thrust and glute bridge, but view those as accessory lifts. I continue to squat and DL.

    I started hip thrusting and glute bridging as just bodyweight exercises, which I'm pretty sure is what Contreras recommends, and later added weight. I started with an empty barbell, as I did with every single exercise I do.

    At this point, my bb glute bridges and hip thrusts are at just a slightly higher weight than my DL 1RM, but I do 10 reps/5 sets of the glute bridges/hip thrusts.

    I think they're ALL great exercises for building strength and power, and improving the look of one's booty.

    Like Sara said, OP's attitude really got in the way of what could have been a productive thread. That's a shame.
