Instructions:
- 1Lie face down on a hyperextension bench, with your ankles secured under the footpads and your upper thighs resting on the larger pad.
- 2Lower your torso, bending at the waist, as far down as possible without causing discomfort.
- 3Raise your body back to the initial position using your lower back muscles while maintaining a straight back and pinched shoulder blades.
- 4Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
Tips:
- Avoid rounding your back; maintain a straight back throughout the exercise.

- Engage your core throughout the movement for support and stability.
- Do not rush through the repetitions, take your time to maximize muscle tension.
