Hip thrusts stimulate glutes better than squats do

"In cases where back squats cannot safely be performed, perhaps due to injury, pain, mobility deficits, or hip dysfunction, the greater stability of the barbell hip thrust would seem to make it an excellent alternative for developing the lower body musculature. Additionally, evidence suggests that individuals seeking to maximize their gluteus maximus development should incorporate barbell hip thrusts into their regimen."

Anyone interested in doing these should try them out on the smith machine. It's a lot easier to keep the weight stable and to focus on the contraction.
