Reverse Hyperextensions

Lie prone on a reverse hyper bench or hyperextension apparatus with hips off the edge, and lift legs upward using the glutes and hamstrings until horizontal.

Key points

  • Ensure groin/pelvis rests below the pad edge for clearance
  • Lift legs using glutes and hamstrings rather than momentum
  • Lower legs slowly back beneath the hips

Common mistakes

Swinging legs uncontrollably without muscular tension.
