The reverse hyper: A powerhouse for posterior chain development.
This exercise, popularized by Louie Simmons of Westside Barbell, is excellent for:
  • Strengthening the glutes, hamstrings, and lower back.
  • Decompressing the spine and aiding recovery.
  • Improving deadlift and squat performance.
"The reverse hyper is one of the best machines for lower back health and posterior chain strength."
