HYPEREXTENSIONS

Here we develop the spinal erectors of the lower back.

Implementation: (A) Place yourself facedown across a hyperextension bench, have your heels hooked under the rear supports. Place your hands across your chest or on the back of your head and bend forward and down as much as possible. You'll feel your lower back muscles get a great stretch.

(B) Now, come back up until your torso is just above parallel. To prevent injury of your spine don't lift up any higher than this.
