If you want glutes that grow, stop wasting time on random “activation” exercises and start doing what actually works! Here’s why Bulgarian Split Squats, RDLs, and Hip Thrusts are elite for growth 🍑👇🏼 1️⃣ Bulgarian Split Squats The most hated exercise, but so worth it. They let you sink into a deep stretch, creating heavy mechanical tension - the #1 driver of glute hypertrophy. 🔑Slight forward lean, move on a diagonal path - it allows maximum stretch. 2️⃣ RDLs They train glutes in their lengthened zone - thats where growth happens. Great for that round, lifted side profile. Constant tension because the weight never hits the floor. 🔑Soft knees, hips back, don’t let the weights touch the ground. 3️⃣ Hip Thrusts Train glutes in the shortened position - gives peak contraction and builds muscle density. This is where the “bubble butt” shape is built. 🔑Chin tucked, shins vertical, 90° knees at the top, and fully lock out. Together, these train your glutes through every position: ✅ Lengthened - RDLs ✅ Mid-range - Bulgarian Split Squats ✅ Shortened - Hip Thrusts Save this for your next lower-body day and send to someone who is growing glutes next year! ✨🍑 #glutegains #gluteworkout #gymtipsforwomen #glutehypertrophy
