What creators say

Used for: Lower back and spinal erector strengthening for posture and injury resistance Praised: Strengthens spinal erectors; improves posture; increases injury resistance

"I have a 45-degree hyperextension and I'm not taking that to failure. The low back thing is really important. There are a lot of data out there that if you can strengthen the spinal erectors, your posture is better and you're more injury resistant."
