Strengthen Your Lower Back with Reverse Hypers

In weight training, the lower back does not much receive much attention, unless of course, it is injured. This despite the fact that the back region is used in many pulling and lifting functions. Making it a priority to strengthen the lower back will prevent you from experiencing injuries in future. One exercise machine that can tighten and tone up your back is the reverse hyper. This unique fitness equipment works on several areas of the lower body such as glutes, hamstrings etc.

A special feature of the reverse hyper is that it can be used in various ways. For example, you can use this exercise machine with a table that has been titled slightly in the forward direction. This position will allow the reverse hyper to stretch and decompress the thoracic area. Tilt reverse hyper toward the rear and it will act as a great stimulant for the glutes and the erectors.

Apart from helping your lower back to get into shape, this fitness equipment is also ideal for all those who have already injured their lower back. It allows the development of dynamic strength in the concentric phase and acts as a rehabilitation mechanism in the eccentric period. All these acts are fulfilled by lightly stretching and depressurizing the spinal area with a fluid and filling up the muscles of the lower back with blood. Reverse hyper allows complete rehabilitation by relieving the pressure and restoring normal circulation in the injured area.

Anyone who has inured the lower back can safely use reverse hypers 3-4 times per week. If you want to tone up this particular area, you can combine lightweights and this exercise equipment for best results.

Reverse hyper adjusts itself easily in home, college as well as in commercial gyms. It can also be used continuously for 24 hours.

Happy exercising!
