Hi Coach,
Can you recommend a couple of suitable lower back exercises as mentioned in your article on the Modified Hatfield Split?
Thanks in advance!

Nothing special, really.

  • Reverse hypers
  • Back extensions
  • Anderson Goodmorning
  • Safety squat bar Goodmorning
  • One of my favorite ones is hard to explain and doesn’t really have a name. Put a bar on your shoulders as if you were squatting. Knee in front of a bench. Bent at the waist so that your stomach rests on the bench and your torso is parallel to the floor. From there, roll your spine (imagine trying to give yourself a blow job) then un-roll by arching the lower back and thoracic spine as much as possible without your stomach leaving the bench. Use light weights for this.

Awesome, Thank you again! I have been sitting here reading this over and over trying to figure out how to perform that exercise. Wasn’t having much like. Video worth a thousand words.
Greatly appreciated!
