Exercise Description

Rock back extension rotation targets your lower back while adding rotational movement. Builds spinal mobility and strengthens your core for better posture.

How To

1. Start on hands and knees in tabletop position with wrists under shoulders 2. Rock back slowly, sitting your hips toward your heels while keeping hands planted 3. As you rock back, rotate your torso to one side in the rock back extension rotation movement 4. Return to starting position with control, engaging your lower back muscles 5. Repeat the rock back extension rotation to the opposite side for balanced training

Form Tips

• Keep the rock back extension rotation movement slow and controlled throughout • Don't force the rotation - let your spine move naturally • Keep your core engaged during the entire rock back extension rotation • Focus on feeling the stretch in your lower back and obliques

Common Mistakes

• Moving too fast through the rock back extension rotation instead of controlling the movement • Forcing excessive rotation which can strain your spine • Neglecting to engage your core during the rock back extension rotation sequence
