You probably didn't read the whole thread. I said squats are better, lunges, didn't mention deads but they are great too. But the dude said the consensus was that they were pretty much completely useless, but how are they useless if they load the glutes, which they definitely do? What's wrong with doing hip-loaded squats, lunges and then finishing off with the thrusts? That was my thought process. Do you disagree?
It's like the 'gynecologists chair' exercise in the gym. "Oh that's just for chicks." But why? The thrusts may look 'feminine' for some, I don't know for what reason, but they load the glutes. You just have to do a hard thrusting workout and see what is sore the next day.
Not the best but not useless.
It's fine if you think they look like fools. But I've seen serious powerlifters do them and I don't recall anyone snickering. 
no youīre correct i didnīt read the whole thread so my apologies my friend
as to powerlifters doing them or yourself.. if you like them do them.
Just for the record: I donīt Squat on a Ball either
