The Booty Builder Hip Thrust in the Booty zone at ePORT Mall is a machine designed for hip thrust, i.e. pushing the pelvis upwards against resistance. The main target group is the gluteus maximus. With the correct setting and technique, the hamstrings, front of the thighs and core muscles are also involved in the movement, which help maintain a stable position. ePORT Mall offers the BootyBuilder brand among its equipment, and the manufacturer classifies hip thrust machines as devices aimed at training the glutes.

The design of the machine makes it easy to set up your basic position and focus on the movement itself. Back support, padding, and securing via a belt or support element help keep the body in a more stable position than with an improvised hip thrust with a bench and dumbbell. The specific method of adjusting the resistance depends on the version of the machine. The Booty Builder model line includes both plate and tray solutions, so follow the instructions located directly on the device when using it.

The main advantages include faster preparation for exercise, less need for additional equipment and easier repetition of the same movement pattern in each set. The machine allows you to pay attention to foot position, range of motion and smooth extension in the hips without having to manipulate a large barbell. This makes it suitable for strength training of the glutes, as well as for supplementing leg and posterior chain training.
When exercising, you need to adjust the support according to your body proportions, place your feet firmly on the designated surface, and perform the movement in a controlled manner. In the upper position, it is not necessary to bend your torso or swing the weight out. What is important is a smooth path, even pressure from your feet, and a controlled return to the lower position. If you are unsure about the machine settings or technique, it is advisable to ask the staff or trainer for help.
