- Before beginning the single arm suitcase carry, be sure to engage your core to stabilize your spine and maintain an upright posture. Keep your shoulders back and down, avoiding any leaning or excessive rotation to one side. Begin walking in a straight line, taking controlled steps while maintaining your posture. Focus on keeping the weight stable and your body aligned. If necessary, switch hands halfway through your set distance or time to ensure balanced muscle engagement.

- The reverse hyper is an effective posterior chain exercise that works the entire back side of the body at once, including the hamstrings, glutes, and erector spinae.

Lie with your torso across a sturdy table or bench, draping your legs over the edge and grasping the edges of the table. Your knees should be straight. Keeping your torso locked into place, raise your legs, making sure to squeeze the glutes up top and prevent overextension of your low back. Lower your legs to the starting position, keeping your spine stable and making sure not to round the low back.
