When performed with a cable machine, however, many clients tend to hyperextend their spine and overuse their arms—compensating where they shouldn’t. A better option, particularly for beginners, is to use a resistance band. The band naturally reduces arm…

To enhance its effect, resistance bands can be added to provide greater overload where you want it (hips extended) and less where you don’t (hips flexed). The advantage of using elastic resistance instead of just weight plates is that it allows you to accelerate…
