Alright you perv but unfortunately this thread is about getting a huge pump in your glutes and the best way you guys have found to do this.
I’ve tried glute-ham raises, lunges, step-ups, and conventional DL but I usually just get a huge pump in my quads if anything, although the GH raises do give a nice tingling feeling.
What exercises do you guys find to give the best burn?
I agree but sometimes you just need to get a good burn to know that the muscle is there.
I think I have a better mental muscular link to the muscles I can get a burn from versus the ones that I can’t.
The CV Deadlift is a good way to feel the glutes work in an exercise. It’s great for beginners because it teaches you to be Glute Dominant and lead with your hips. Sure, most of the time novice lifters shouldn’t focus on lifts where the feel of the muscle (curls, calf raises) is more important than moving heavy weight. But the CV Deadlift is an exception to this rule.
Deep Front Squats will also hit the glutes as well. Front Squats involve less hamstring than Back Squats so more hip extension is done by the Glutes.
Kettlebell and Dumbbell 1-Arm snatches done for high reps might give you a good glute pump, but that’s usually accompanied with a killer lower back pump that will have you lying on the ground after a set.

You can’t flex bone. The best “mind muscle connection” comes from heavy weights. That cannot be argued.
Missionary style, doggy style, reverse cowgirl with her laying on your chest while you do the work, regular cowgirl while you do the work, on the couch (sitting up with you on top), the rodeo (hang on tight and call her by a different name), the alligator fuck roll (A daring sexual maneuver: Mid-coitus, one person bites the neck of the other, locks their arms and legs down and goes into a deathroll, all while maintaining insertion. Like downshifting a car!).
I’ve been doing dumbbell swings as part of my interval fat burning workouts. I squeeze my glutes pretty hard throughout the movement and although I’ve never thought of it as a pump, my glutes are burning by the end of it. I usually do 15 minutes of full squat db clean and press, then 15 minutes of db swings + pushups. The cleans might wear out my quads a little, leaving pretty much hips and glutes for the swings.
