There has been some confusion of late as to what constitutes a back extension and what is a hip extension. A hip extension takes your back locked in extension and hinges it at the hip. The GHD is set so that your Iliac crest (the pointy part of your hip near the same level as your belly button) is well past the end of the pad. A back extension traps the hip against the pad and then we deliberately uncurl the back from extension. Start by tucking the head and unhinging at each vertebrae. This will be one of the only times we'll ask you to take your back out of extension. This is also one of the reasons we do it so rarely. Any time you see back extension in a workout take it to mean a hip extension. If this is unclear take a look at this page.
