# Resistance Band Floor Hyperextension

Lie face down on the floor with a loop resistance band over your ankles and another loop resistance band over your forearms.

## How to do it

1. Lie face down on the floor with a loop resistance band over your ankles and another loop resistance band over your forearms. Extend your arms forward and keep your legs straight.
2. Engage your core and glutes, and lift your chest and legs off the floor simultaneously, spreading your legs apart against the resistance of the band.
3. Squeeze your lower back muscles at the top of the movement, keeping your arms and legs straight.
4. Slowly lower your chest and legs back to the starting position with control. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

## Form tips

- Keep your neck in a neutral position to avoid straining it.
- Focus on engaging your lower back and glute muscles throughout the movement.
- Exhale as you lift your chest and legs and inhale as you lower them back down.
