The platform for the back is non-adjusting. The final design contained no adjusting or moving parts so that it would be much more robust, increasing the longevity of the Hip Thruster.

The back height has been determined as ideal for the vast majority of individuals, although a few people with shorter torsos find they need to start from a raised position. This is most easily achieved by slightly raising the barbell height and/or by sliding up into a starting position and then not touching the floor in the bottom position between each repetition.

The angled foot pad is slightly better for hamstring activation, but it doesn't alter activation of the gluteus maximus muscle. The flat foot plate is more functional for barbell hip thrusting. It has also ensured that the unit is more cost-effective and replicates the thrusting position that most lifters already use.

The need for bar padding is very dependent on personal preference and the pelvic anatomy of each individual. We find that some people need substantial amounts of padding on the bar while others can hip thrust with nothing at all.

We recommend our BC Strength Sponge or Thruster Pad which have been designed specifically for Hip Thrust exercises. 

We recommend our Hip Thruster Band which has been designed specifically for Hip Thrust exercises. 

Whether you need something under the barbell so that you can roll the barbell over your legs will depend on the height of the barbell off the floor and the height of your legs off the floor. It is worth noting that when sat within the unit you are sat on the floor. If you are currently able to roll the bar into position over your legs then it is likely that you could still do this when using the Thruster.

We recommend our Thruster Plates, which have been specifically designed so the bar can easily be rolled into position.

Glute loop

Product specific questions related to the Glute Loop

Approximate dimensions: 3" by 13" (S/M) and 3" by "15 (L/XL)

Approximate weight: 125g

Colour: black and blue

Heavy-duty construction for professional use

The Glute Loop is manufactured from elasticated grippy fabric so there may be very minor variations in appearance between products

Guaranteed against wear and tear for 3 months

The Glute Loop is available in 2 sizes (S/M and L/XL) and 3 strengths (Regular, Strong and Extra Strong), allowing for a total of 6 options. If you're just looking to buy one single band, we recommend that the majority of users purchase the S/M Regular Glute Loop as a starting point. However, individuals with larger thighs may wish to purchase the L/XL Regular Glute Loop instead. Stronger and fitter users will want to opt for the S/M and L/XL Strong and Extra Strong Glute Loops.

However, instead of asking which band is right for you, consider buying all 6 loops. The reason why is that each band is useful for different exercises, variations, and rep ranges. For example, the L/XL Glute Loops are better suited for sumo squat and sumo band walks as they allow for larger excursions. And the Strong and Extra Strong Glute Loops are better suited for working lower rep ranges.

We are happy to arrange an exchange, please contact us for return address information.
