The abdominal muscles, provided they are well developed, are a natural power belt that protects the spine. To achieve a good result, the press must be trained for a long time and hard.

Exercises with traction blocks help to diversify classes. This is a great way to change the load that has become familiar with other machines.
Before starting the exercise, you should correctly take the starting position. The body must be kept straight, during the flexion, the back remains invariably straight. Its rounding significantly reduces the effectiveness of the exercise.

Hands clasp the handle with a grip from below and remain practically in a fixed position throughout the exercise. The work is performed solely by the muscles of the press. This exercise engages the rectus abdominis.

It is necessary to achieve the maximum amplitude of the exercise, trying to touch the floor with your elbows. The exercise requires repeated repetition, it is physiological and absolutely safe for the back. To achieve greater efficiency against the background of fatigue, it is desirable to perform a series of partial repetitions.
Keep your body straight and keep your back straight.
Grab the handle with an underhand grip.
Get down on your knees.
Bend over until your elbows almost touch the floor.
All movements should be performed by the abdominal muscles (not the arms).
