The glute pull-through is a great exercise for the hip extensors. When using a cable, however, clients often tend to hyperextend the spine and overuse their arms.
A better approach initially is to use a resistance band. This variation takes the arms out of the equation and allows clients to focus on proper hip drive.
Once you max out with the horizontal resistance of the bands, you can introduce vertical loading with dumbbells. This creates a hybrid between a glute pull-through and a semi-stiff-leg deadlift.
