Weight-Plate Side-Bend 45-Degree

Position your body sideways on a 45-degree hyperextension bench with your lower hip secured against the pad and your feet locked firmly in the footplate.

Hold a weight plate securely against your chest with both hands.

Lower your upper body toward the floor in a controlled movement until you feel a gentle stretch along your side.

Engage your obliques to lift your torso back up to the starting position.

Complete all your repetitions on one side before switching to face the opposite direction.
