Front Fold | This standing exercise focuses on your back muscles—particularly in your lower back. It’s easy and safe and can be adjusted to your fitness level.
Step 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Step 2: Keep your back straight, then bend at the hips and reach down as far as you can toward the floor. Touch the floor if you can; otherwise, try a modified version using a box or step. Take approximately two seconds to move into position. Bending your knees slightly is acceptable but too much can sacrifice the benefits to your back muscles. Step 3: Return to the starting position. Be sure to keep your back straight the entire time, and take two seconds to stand. This counts as one repetition. Step 4: Try to do three sets of 12 repetitions, making modifications as needed.
To upgrade this activity, you can hold weights in each hand or hold a single weight with both hands to increase resistance. | Explore More Fitness | | |
