About

It's a workout that can give muscles constant tension because it uses cables. It helps develop your gluteus maximus and hamstring!

How to Cable Hip Extension

Starting Position

1. Please adjust the height of the cable to the lowest setting.

2. Please hold the cable pole with both hands to maintain balance.

Proper Form

1. Raise your leg back as far as your flexibility allows.

2. Lower your leg and return to the starting position.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when you raise your legs, and inhale when you lower them.

Precautions

1. Engage your core to keep your upper body steady and avoid arching your lower back.

2. If you feel discomfort, reduce your range of motion.
