The best foods for a bulk are almost the opposite of the best foods for a cut. When you're trying to gain muscle, getting enough calories consistently can become the challenge. That's where calorie-dense foods become incredibly useful. Nuts. Trail mix. Dried fruit. Granola. Higher-fat meats.

HIP THRUSTS are great for the glutes because they maximize mechanical tension at full hip extension—the exact position where the gluteus maximus exerts its GREATEST leverage and force.
