Weighted Hyperextension

1. Adjust a hyperextension bench so your hips are just above the pad and secure your feet. 2. Hold a weight plate or dumbbell against your chest or behind your head. 3. Start with your body in a straight line. 4. Slowly lower your torso by hinging at the hips while keeping your back neutral. 5. Engage your glutes, hamstrings, and lower back to raise your body back up. 6. Stop when your body is straight again and repeat with control.
