If standard hip thrusts have lost their oomph, here's something you should try: isometronics.
Isometronics combine the principles of isometric and isotonic muscle contractions to reap the rewards of both. Performing hip thrusts using this technique would look like this:
• Pick a weight you can barbell hip thrust for 12 reps (your 12RM).
• Do 10 full reps.
• On the tenth rep, pause at the top for 10 seconds.
• Finish with as many partial reps as you can in the bottom position. If you've selected the right weight, this will be no more than 4-8 partial reps. – Gareth Sapstead
