Instructions

1. Position yourself on the Roman chair by placing your ankles securely under the leg supports.

2. Lean back so that your body is straight and perpendicular to the ground. Cross your arms over your chest or place your hands behind your head for support.

3. Slowly lower your upper body backward by hinging at your hips, going down as far as you comfortably can without straining your back.

4. Pause for a moment at the bottom of the movement.

5. Engage your core muscles and lift your torso back up to the starting position, exhaling as you perform this movement.

6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining a controlled movement throughout the exercise.

For safety and effectiveness, ensure your movements are deliberate and controlled, focusing on contracting the abdominal muscles. Avoid using momentum to lift your body, as this can reduce the effectiveness of the exercise and increase the risk of injury.
