Cheap option for GHD

[Barkadion]

Would you say a back extension machine has the same usage as this or a regular GHD? I tend to feel it not only work my lower back but my hamstrings as well.

It is highly depends on one's technique and body mechanics..

Can you hit your posterior chain with back extension? Yes.
Is that the same as GHD and/or revers hyper? Yes and No. It depends..

On the other hand you can be good with thrusts off the benches and ham curls with sliders/paper plates and/or TRX/Rings.

Good stuff. Thanks, Bark! I started playing Rugby at school and considering my running form and running just in general isn't great, my coach has suggested me working stretching my hamstrings and gluten. I run/walk naturally a weird way and according to one of his former players who was a Exercise Science major, he suggested I start working on those specifically before workouts.

Glad you find it helpful! Hams is my weak link. Posterior chain is very important for all compounds from personal experience..

Bark, did you ever think of Rogue's Echo GHD option?

I did.. I would make sense if I have enough space in my basement.. I don't. I even been thinking of buying Echo GHD (Pad Only) for
$245.00. Or similar pad from PB:

But Home GHR from OB was a winner..

Good move.

Are you using the GHD for accessory work?

Are you using the GHD for accessory work?

I will be:) It takes few weeks to get the thing. I am thinking of finishers and some variations of Fobbits.

Mix the GHD with some swings... Getting out of bed in the morning, or climbing the stairs would be interesting.

I don’t know, mate. Failing picking up my twins from the floor might compromise my marriage

I can imagine. Well then maybe planks.

I did Power intervals with planks and a static KB grip holds as a finisher yesterday. It was a solid workout.
