Do not arch your back, but keep it completely still, no swaying, swinging, arching or curving. Just lean back about 10 degrees and maintain that throughout the exercise. Your elbows should make an arc shape to the side of your body on the way down and on the way up. Squeeze your elbows into your body at the lowest part of the movement and the bar should be on or close to the very upper portion of your chest. The only movement should come from your arms.

It is very important that once you are set up in position with your back perpendicular to the floor your back does not move. Only your arms should move. From straight out in front of you bring your elbows back and keep them tight into your body. Once they are as far back as they will go slowly let the weight go forwards. Aim for a duration of 1.5 to 2 seconds in both directions. Swinging or arching your back to aid the movement is an indication that the weight is too heavy. We do not move the back whilst doing this exercise because it can damage the small muscles in the lower back. Exercise description by Hugo Saner. (less)

Adjust the hyper extension bench so the top of the pad is even with your waist. Position your feet firmly on the platform and rest the front of your pelvis against the pads allowing you to bend forward.
Bend at the waist and lower yourself towards the ground until your upper body is roughly at a 70 degree angle with the floor. Raise yourself up until your body is in a straight line. Continue until you complete your desired reps. (less)
