Instructions

  1. Adjust the 45-degree hyperextension bench so the upper pad sits just below your hip crease.

  2. Secure your heels firmly under the footplates and cross your arms over your chest.

  3. Bend forward smoothly at the waist, lowering your upper body toward the floor in a controlled motion.

  4. Lift your torso back up until your body forms a straight line from your head to your heels.

  5. Hold this top position steadily while keeping your core braced and breathing normally.

  6. Lower your torso back down with control once your timer or set is complete.
