So helpful! I agree - I couldn’t find any info or videos of someone using this with a barbell.. until your video! Thanks!!

[@Krufessor_Rad]

You're welcome and thank you for the comment.

[@androidgeeking]

You just saved me $200. I was going to buy this but I can't have it against the wall unfortunately. I can't justify buying their $500 model. I'm just going to get a 12" soft plyo box instead.

[@sbtraining1769]

Easy answer also if avoiding pitting against the wall, place dumbell, plate, ect. Behind it to secure boom good with high loads 👍

I enjoy doing hip thrusters. The hip thruster pad is a great idea

[@TeslaRules1856]

Thanks for a good review + barbell

[@TonyNovation]

If anyone else is here looking to make hip thrusts more comfortable, I think I cracked the code. I use a regular bench, an Abmat Hip Thrust Pad, and two Pound Pads (Titan has Silencer Drop Pads). If it works for you, let me know!

[@Kris4449]

How has the foam held up now that you have had these a while? Do you still feel this was a better investment than the platform?

[@Krufessor_Rad]

We use them several times a week and we stand on them to do Rock Bottom squats and other things and they are still like brand new. It's a matter of space and economics.. If i had the space and money, I'd get a platform, but these do have many other uses i don't think you'd do on a platform.

[@verdelljackson8557]

Good video! It’s not for the home gym if you can’t use it for barbell thrusters.

[@Krufessor_Rad]

thank you

Where would I buy one

[@Krufessor_Rad]

Here's the link to Bret Contreras' website and the Thruster bench. www.bretcontreras.store/products/glute-bench™

[@gokublack5831]

So would putting it avainat a wall stop it from moving?

[@Krufessor_Rad]

It holds up fine and never tips over. It simply slides when you put excessive loads on it. I'm sure putting it up against a wall would prevent any sliding whatsoever.

[@gokublack5831]

@@Krufessor_Rad thanks alot for answering my question now i have another question

[@gokublack5831]

@@Krufessor_Rad im buying the rogue fitness monster utility bench the Thompson fat pad Now if i buy this flat bench do i still need to buy the hip thruster bench for hip thrusts or is that rogue Seat better or the same for hip thrusts?

[@Krufessor_Rad]

@@gokublack5831 It would be the same. Prior to buying the hip thruster bench I simply used the flat bench. But it was just harder for some of my female clients because of it's height so the thruster bench was good for that, but honestly to save money, just use a flat bench.

[@gokublack5831]

@@Krufessor_Rad the thing is that exercise is a bit tough at times to feel it in the glute and my adjustable bench surface wasnt even and kind of slanted even.but buying a this flat bench nigh mimic the same and wont move.but im not sure if the hip thruster bench is more direct and easier to do hip thrusts than the bench

[@SUPTalkingAbout]

HI!!! Which material is it?

[@Krufessor_Rad]

I think it's simply dense layers of foam and vinyl outer cover.

[@iselamartinez5076]

Is it soft?

[@Krufessor_Rad]

It's firm. It holds up just like a flat bench.

[@iii-ei5cv]

It says its been rated to 1200 lbs... I definitely would be hesitant to pay over $200 (for the larger bench) for something made of foam if not for that claim

[@iii-ei5cv]

sorry, that's for a different company's product (BC strength). Seems similar though EDIT: nope, I was wrong. Looks like it's the same product after all - just sold by multiple companies

[@Krufessor_Rad]

I don’t know. It study, but that’s a lot of weight. I don’t know if I’d ever load it high enough to test that but we’ve had them for a while now and get lots of use out of them and they are holding up very well.

[@DrBruceVDPT]

Do you still love this product?

[@Krufessor_Rad]

I use everyday for either myself or my clients. There are so many uses for it.

Someone needs to coach those poor women. Terrible form.
