Açıklama
The Weighted Hyperextension is an advanced variation of the classic back extension, performed by holding a weight plate or dumbbell against the chest. It is used for lower back hypertrophy when body weight alone becomes insufficient. It intensely activates the erector spinae, gluteus maximus, and hamstring muscles. Frequently utilized by powerlifters and bodybuilders for lower back development and deadlift performance. When performed regularly, it provides significant improvements in lower back hypertrophy and overall posterior chain strength.
