Hip Thrust Technique to Avoid Hyperextension ☠️

One of the most common mistakes in hip thrusts is overextending at the top — flaring the ribs, arching the lower back, and turning a glute exercise into a spinal one.

What we want to see
• Chin tucked (think soft double-chin, eyes neutral)
• Ribs down with a strong core brace
• Scoop the bar with hips as you drive up
• Finish in posterior pelvic tilt, squeezing glutes — not jamming hips forward
• Stop the rep when ribs stack over hips

If you’re feeling it in your lower back, you’ve gone too far.
The goal isn’t height — it’s tension, control, and glute drive.

Neutral spine. Strong lockout. Better glute gains. 🔥
