Bar Band Single-Leg Reverse Hyperextension
From a high plank with the hands pinning a bar to the floor, one straight leg lifts behind against a band hooked to the bar; a banded kickback held in a plank.
How to do it
Setup
High plank, hands pressing a bar into the floor, the band from the bar looped around one foot, hips square.
Steps
- Lift the banded leg straight up behind until it is level with the torso.
- Squeeze that glute for a beat without the hips turning.
- Lower the foot back toward the floor; finish the set, then switch legs.
Common mistakes
Hips opening toward the lifting leg: both hip bones face the floor. Arching the lower back to lift higher: level with the torso is enough. Hands easing off the bar: press it down or the band drags it away.
Breathing
Exhale as the leg rises, inhale lowering.
