The biggest hole in the coverage matrix - the hinge had zero entries in any modality. Deadlift and Romanian Deadlift are the library's first standing (camera.zoom) and first barbell motions. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJDQQDA9QdP8zByg43H5v3

# Hip Thrust
|
||
|
||
The loaded glute bridge — shoulders on a bench, barbell across the hips,
|
||
drive the hips up to a straight line.
|
||
|
||
- **Category:** Main circuit
|
||
- **Type:** Free-weight hip extension
|
||
- **Targets:** Glutes, hamstrings
|
||
- **Prescription:** 4 × 8–10
|
||
|
||
## Setup
|
||
|
||
Sit on the floor with your upper back against a bench, the bar (padded)
|
||
across your hips, hands steadying it. Feet flat, hip-width, heels under
|
||
the knees.
|
||
|
||
## Execution
|
||
|
||
1. Brace, tuck the chin, and drive through the heels to lift the hips.
|
||
2. Stop when shoulders, hips and knees are level — a flat tabletop.
|
||
3. Squeeze the glutes at the top, then lower the hips under control.
|
||
|
||
## Cues
|
||
|
||
- Chin tucked, ribs down — the body hinges around the bench edge.
|
||
- Full lockout comes from the glutes, not from arching the back.
|
||
- Shins vertical at the top; adjust foot distance until they are.
|
||
|
||
## Common Mistakes
|
||
|
||
- Overarching the lower back instead of finishing with the glutes.
|
||
- Feet too far forward, turning it into a hamstring exercise.
|
||
- Cutting the range short at the top.
|
||
|
||
## Progression
|
||
|
||
Start with the bar alone to groove the pattern, then add plates; pause
|
||
reps at the top for extra glute work.
