hip thrusts
Glute bridge exercise
Hip thrusts are an exercise targeting the glutes, performed by sitting on the floor with the upper back against a bench, then driving the hips upward while a barbell or other weight rests across the pelvis: I've been doing hip thrusts twice a week and my squat has improved.
Outside the gym, hip thrusts are any thrusting motion of the pelvis—sexual, comedic, or choreographic.
