Impact gym fitness equipment back extension exercise machine

Product Description

A back extension exercise machine, also known as a hyperextension machine or a Roman chair, is a piece of fitness equipment designed to target and strengthen the muscles in the lower back, glutes, and hamstrings. It typically consists of a padded bench with footrests and handles for support.

To perform the back extension exercise on this machine:

1. Adjust the machine to your desired settings, ensuring that the footrests and pads are aligned with your body.
2. Position yourself face down on the bench, with your hips resting on the padded surface and your feet securely placed under the footrests.
3. Cross your arms over your chest or place them behind your head, keeping your elbows wide.
4. Engage your core and slowly lift your upper body off the bench, extending your back and squeezing your glutes.
5. Pause briefly at the top of the movement, then lower yourself back down to the starting position in a controlled manner.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

It's important to maintain proper form throughout the exercise to avoid straining your lower back. Make sure to start with a weight or resistance level that allows you to perform the exercise with good technique. As you become more comfortable and stronger, you can gradually increase the resistance or weight to continue challenging your muscles.
