Weight Training Workout - The Glute Bridge With Barbell

[17wikiwiki]

Hey I am a guy training primarily for mass but also care a lot about my strength gains. I have a feeling that my glutes are very weak but I am not sure how strong I should be on this exercise. My max squat is about 220 and my deadlift is about 300. I did this exercises for the first time today and did 95x10.. It was after a long leg session so my glutes were pretty tired but I still feel this is weak.big butt plus stronger lifts is goal. I weigh 142lbs now. Strength goals for this exercise??

I do these at the gym, but i do the variety where you crawl up on a flat bench (shoulders resting on the bench). They are the only exercise i have found that really target the top part of the glutes (gluteus minimus i think its called). I quickly got over the embarrassment the first time i did them--i was incredibly sore on the top of the gluteus. I find they work great doing them first to activate the gluteus before other exercises.
