>fixes your back

It unironically fixed mine or at least assisted in protecting it along removing the exercises that were aggravating this injury in my experience. Haven't had an irritated disc in lower back for years now.

TRVKE. I had back pain for years before doing reverse back hyperextensions.

My back always feels better after doing them for sure.

where's the overload? this is just bodyweight slop
do flexion rows faggot

That doesn't look like a GHR or Romanian deadlift to me

You can grab a disc/plate/loaded barbell

grab a couple plates retard

How do I do this if my gym doesn’t have this piece of equipment

>>76772696
i like this one, although my gym has the version where the bench is horizontal which i guess is even better
>>
>>76772696
Yeah it definitely feels good and keeps my back limber. 10/10 exercise

I have lower back pain at night so I've been interested in excercises such as this one (I do jefferson curls for now), but alas I don't think I can do it at my homegym.
>>
>>76772972
You can do a similar exercise on the floor. Lay on your belly and do a flying superman pose. Both arms and feet off the floor. Hold and release.
>>
>>76772696
what do I do if I can't even do this with my bodyweight
t. lanklet with scoliosis
also my gym has one of these benches but its too short for me, the top only comes up go like just below my ballsack so I can't properly leverage myself. what do I do about that
>>
>>76772764
you know those things you typed out this retarded shit with? Well, you can actually use those to pick things up--like weights--to add progressive overload.
>>
>>76773008
>>76772972
>do a flying superman pose
Not enough extension, and not enough movement. And center of gravity means you won't hit the erector properly, but instead do more glutes and hamstrings.

Just get a chair without armrests, or a bar stol.
>>
>>76773102
I know it's not the exact same thing as back extensions. That's why I said 'similar'. He can try it out a few times and see if it helps with his lower back pain.
>>
>>76773159
>and see if it helps
Which it won't do, since there is a lack of motion. Its a pretty bad exercise

The recommended option to try the back extension exercise without the machine, remains to use a footrest, or a dining chair without arms, or a bar stool.
And that is still a little wrong, since the lack of anchoring again limits motion, but you can at the least get the full up to down motion to activate the muscles
>>
>>76773159
i agree with the other guy that it's better than nothing, but what you really want for back pain is motion. training strength is good but what you really want is mobility. it's like it lubricates the joints, unlocks the vertebrae and relaxes all the muscles, idk. not long ago i had quite bad lower back pain and i happened to go on a backpacking holiday, after the second day walking 9+ hours per day all the pain was gone and my back felt completely cured, despite the heavy backpack

the best you can do in my opinion is swimming

>>76772972
>>76773102
>>76773201
you can do them lying on a table with legs hanging off if it's secured enough so as not to tip over

pretty self explanatory

>>76772764
Do the movement while picking up a barbell off the floor. Use the widest grip possible to increase ROM, grip all the way at the plates like a snatch. It's an amazing exercise.
>>
>>76772696
Out of all the shit I tried to fix my lower back pain this was the one to fix it. I overload by holding a plate, works wonders I always get a set or two in everytime I'm in the gym.

I do these at the end of my workout with deadlifts and it relieves any tension in my back. Feels good.
>>
>>76772696
Just deadlift or rdl. Same thing but you can overload it

it's not glute max it's glute medius bot, u need neutral or posterior pelvic tilt for glute max
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Syd1QfjqQ7U
but i think u're shilling it for psoas abuse purpose - cause tugging on injured abused shortened and stiff muscle also known as stretching is fucking retarded and will injure it that much more

it's fucking ridiculous - it's is all glute medius u lying piece of shit:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBjqHxg1Mi0

https://youtu.be/yBjqHxg1Mi0?t=209 this will work WITH posterior pelvic tilt for glute max

https://youtu.be/yBjqHxg1Mi0?t=262 glute medius, adductors, vastus lateralis u lying piece of shit - the clown musculature, become the paht looking clown

in actuality the only time glute max is used during squat and deadlift is when u buttwing at the bottom of squat or "push hips through" i.e. move pelvis into posterior tilt at the top of this motions
meaning NEVER cause there's no load there

>>76774557
the more i dig into it the more things fall into place bot
