Doing hip extensions from the floor or from the side of a bench regularly stretches the chest, neck, spine, and hips.
It strengthens the back, glutes, and hamstrings.
It improves the circulation of blood.
AND...It alleviates stress and mild depression.
Now add a band around your knees to abduct them while performing the hip extensions and you have one "fine ass" exercise that does so much more.
