However my favorite is reverse lunges with BB in front squat position. It gives you stable position with heavy loads. Just my 2c.
I've just started MASS again after a layoff from barbell work due to injury.

My hip mobility is not great so while I work on it I'm doing reverse lunges too.....those things are bastards :-)

It's the one think I actually like to do on the Smith Machine, once one gets front foot position dialled in it's great. I've got some muscular imbalances in my left hip, so this 'single leg' work should help a lot.

I've had good success with bulgarian split squats, but I find the reverse lunges really hit my glutes, even more so than the BSS
