Definition

An anti-extension trunk exercise performed by rolling the hands away while resisting excessive lumbar extension. This is a trunk-stability exercise designed to resist unwanted spinal or pelvic motion while force is transmitted through the limbs. The goal is control, not simply holding the position for the longest possible time.

Practical use

Stop the set when spinal or pelvic position can no longer be controlled; progress leverage or load before simply adding excessive duration.
