Glute Studies and Hip Thrusts

This chapter of the podcast discusses the results of meta-analyses on glute studies and the effectiveness of hip thrusts in muscle activation and hypertrophy. The speakers delve into the misconceptions surrounding volume equated for hypertrophy stimulus and the importance of understanding muscle fibers and sarcoplasmic levels in the training process. They also address the controversy surrounding the comparison of hip thrusts and squats, highlighting the differences in activation levels and the potential of the hip thrust to outperform the squat.
