Hip Thrust to Squat Ratio Calculator
Enter a hip thrust 1RM and Trainnode estimates a balanced squat target from the same calculator data used on the free strength ratio calculator.
Quick answer
A balanced Back Squat is about 67% of Hip Thrust.
Because these lifts come from different movement patterns, this is a broader strength-balance check. In reverse, Hip Thrust is about 150% of Back Squat. Treat the number as a coaching guideline and use Trainnode's 10% tolerance band to flag lifts that are meaningfully out of line.
Formula
Squat 1RM / Hip Thrust 1RM. Divide Back Squat 1RM by Hip Thrust 1RM; Trainnode uses 67% as the balanced target for this page.
How to use it
Useful when glute-dominant strength is high and you want to compare it to the squat.
Calculator coverage
Trainnode's free calculator supports 25 common barbell, dumbbell, machine, and weighted bodyweight lifts.
Programming read
Hip Thrust to Back Squat: cross-pattern balance
Hip Thrust is a hip hinge lift, while Back Squat is a squat pattern lift. Use this ratio to spot whether one movement pattern is getting ahead of the other before it shows up as stalled programming, compensation, or a client who only looks strong in one part of the profile.

This calculator is preconfigured for Hip Thrust to Squat. You can switch anchor lifts, add more supported exercises, change units, or move into bodyweight standards without leaving the page. Need to estimate your 1RM first?
Enter what a client actually lifts (optional) to see whether each lift is balanced, over- or under-developed against the ±10% band. The basis selector adjusts expected targets by movement pattern.

Hip Thrust to Squat FAQ
- What is a good hip thrust to squat ratio?
- A useful balanced target is Back Squat at about 67% of Hip Thrust. Hip Thrust is a hip hinge lift and Back Squat is a squat pattern lift, so this ratio is a cross-pattern balance check. Use it as a starting point, then allow for leverage, technique, and training history.
- How do you calculate the hip thrust to squat ratio?
- Divide Back Squat 1RM by Hip Thrust 1RM. On this page, Hip Thrust is preselected as the anchor and Back Squat is highlighted as the target.
- What should a coach do if Back Squat is below target?
- Treat it as a programming clue, not a diagnosis. If Back Squat trails the expected target from Hip Thrust, add more specific exposure to Back Squat, review technique, and check whether fatigue or training history explains the gap.
