Hyperextension bench

Also called: Low back / lower back extension machine

How to find it

Seated machine with a pad against your lower back — push back against it. If your gym has an angled Roman-chair style bench instead, that works the same way.

Setup

  1. 1Sit with the pad flat against your lower/mid back.
  2. 2Hips and knees stay in place — the pad moves, not your legs.
  3. 3Push back and extend, pause, return under control.
