position of the inner handles on the Y bar

Resistance - adjust the bottom cylinder to 1; adjust the top cylinder
to desired intensity level
-
Starting position - begin the exercise standing on the foot plates
facing the HEALTHMAX PRO pad; hands should be gripping the inner handles
on the Y bar with your palms facing down; keeping the back flat, bend at
the waist as far as possible; hands should still be gripping the handles
and arms should be hanging down in front of you
Exercise motion - pull up on the handles by extending your
back muscles and coming to an upright position so you are standing straight
then return to the starting position; back should always remain flat, try
not to let it arch at any time; arms are simply following your torso in
this exercise, they should not be doing any of the work
