LS | McKenzie Extension (bench)
INSTRUCTION VIDEO
|
|
| Used as a guided / controlled movement into extension to improve range into lumbar extension, as well as improve the muscle control movement. Having your abdominals 'on' during this movement reduced shear load that happens with standing and lying extension, however these IS increased load. So good to do once you are pain free in lying extension, or you have problems with muscle control. |
