What is the best Hip Thrust Bench to Buy?

As an increasingly popular lower body strength training exercise, the hip thrust has been proven effective for developing the glutes (as well as the hamstrings and quads) with far less loading on the spine than traditional barbell squats.

This also makes it an excellent option for rehabilitation work.

Hip Thrust Pads are also exceptionally useful to protect you against injury and discomfort.

In the movement, the barbell is placed across the hips as the athlete sits on the floor. With each upward thrust of the hips, the shoulders also elevate and level out, which is where the Monster Hip Thruster Bench comes in—providing leverage and padded protection through each rep.
