Khushi Kapoor lifts 200 kilos doing hip thrusts at the gym

What are hip thrusts and how to do them?
The hip thrust is a form of glute exercise designed to extend the hip or pull the leg behind the body. It is performed using a hip thrust machine, with the body lifted off the floor and a barbell balanced on the hip.
In the most commonly used technique, which is also practised by Khushi in the clip, one has to balance themselves on a hip thrust machine holding a barbell on their hips. Once in position, squeeze the glutes, keep the core tight and press the bar straight up until the hips are aligned with the shoulders and knees. Then, slowly lower the bar until the hips are just a few inches above the floor.
Benefits of Hip Thrusts and Weight Training
Hip thrusts strengthen the hip, buttocks and quadriceps muscles. The exercise also strengthens the glutes, improves balance and helps stabilize the pelvis, lower back and knees. Meanwhile, weight training increases muscle strength and heart health, improves bone density, reduces body fat, stabilizes joints and improves sleep quality.
