Back Extensions exercise
 
For this exercise you will either need a back extension machine, or a bench that allows you to securely position your feet so that the rest of your body won't move during the


exercise. You will be lying on your front side and everything about an inch below your hips should be on the bench or back extension machine.

Repeat this movement to meet your specifications.
