Primary muscles: Lower Back
Secondary muscles: Shoulders
How to do it
- Start off by rolling your torso forward onto the ball so your hips rest on top of the ball and become the highest point of your body.
- Rest your hands and feet on the floor. Your arms and legs can be slightly bent or straight, depending on the size of the ball, your flexibility, and the length of your limbs. This also helps develop stabilizing strength in your torso and shoulders.
Track it with MyoAmigo
MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Pyramid from last time, charts your estimated 1RM trend so you can see strength move without testing a true max, and flags a stall with a concrete fix. It also credits this work toward your weekly Lower Back volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
