Reverse Hyperextension Machine

How to do it

Lie face down on the machine pad with your hips at the edge and torso supported, gripping the handles in front of you.
Hook your ankles under the roller pads provided, keeping your legs extended behind you.
Brace your core and lift your legs upward in a smooth arc until they reach hip height, driving through the glutes.
Squeeze the gluteus maximus and lower back hard at the top before slowly lowering your legs back down.
Keep the movement controlled through both directions, breathing out on the lift and in on the descent.
Avoid swinging your legs for momentum, letting the hips and lower back generate the motion instead.
