Many people spend their time sitting down, hunched over, with the spine flexed forward, creating poor posture and back problems.
The superman exercise is an excellent way to balance the negative effects of this environment and extends the back whilst strengthening the muscles for postural alignment, improving mobility.
Lie down on your stomach with the arms extended so that they are parallel to the floor, palms down.
Slowly lift your arms, upper body and legs from the floor and hold the extension for 3-5 seconds.
Return to the starting position and repeat for desired reps.
Notes:
The hips and stomach should maintain contact with foor at all times.
Keep the movement slow and controlled.
Strongly engage the abdominals and glutes during the movement to protect the back.
