HD Hip Extension

Setup: Set up on a hip extension bench or GHD with hips supported, feet secured, body in a straight line, arms crossed or at sides.

Movement: Hinge at the hips to lower the torso forward, then extend the hips to raise the torso back to a straight, aligned position.

Standards:

• Torso and legs form a straight line at the top
• Controlled hip hinge throughout
• No excessive hyperextension

Focus Points: Drive through glutes and hamstrings, keep core braced, move smoothly without momentum.
