Machine 45 asteen selkäojennus (back extension) on kuntosalilaite, joka kuormittaa ensisijaisesti Keskivartalo.
The exercise suits a beginner: the range of motion is guided and you can start light.
On a machine the range of motion is guided, which makes it safe to train alone — but the settings must be adjusted to your own body, or the movement will be felt in the wrong place.
This page tells you what the machine is. Step-by-step instructions, common mistakes and a video of the movement are in the Luio app — the video shows the range of motion that text cannot describe.
⚠️ Most common mistake: Rounding the lower back at the bottom instead of hinging cleanly at the hips. Hyperextending the lower back at the top instead of stopping at a straight line. Adding weight too soon, which compromises the hinge and overloads the lower back. Rushing the descent instead of controlling the lowering phase for the full range.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Keskivartalo.
