Reverse hypers aren’t a “maybe” for me, they’re a staple. I do them almost every time I train. And the machine is always open - I have never seen anyone else use it at the gym - a freaking travesty.
Louie Simmons created the reverse hyper because his back was wrecked and he needed a way to decompress the spine while strengthening the posterior chain. It works because it does both at the same time. You’re training glutes, hamstrings, and low back while tractioning the spine every rep. That’s rare.
And yes, I use momentum on purpose. Controlled momentum increases blood flow, pumps nutrients into the low back, and creates that decompressive effect Louie designed it for. This isn’t a slow grind lift. It’s about rhythm, traction, and restoring your back while making it stronger.
If your lower back hurts, feels tight, or limits your training, reverse hypers aren’t optional. They’re insurance. Credit where it’s due, Louie Simmons changed back training forever.
Taking a single high dose (25–30g) of creatine not only reverses the cognitive impairment caused by 21 hours of sleep deprivation—it actually boosts brain function beyond rested levels
The mechanism?
High-dose creatine quickly raises brain energy stores, powering neurons under extreme stress
This rapid brain-energizing effect makes creatine promising for combating fatigue, jet lag, or even cognitive decline
@SeedOilDsrspctr Doctors dont give a shit about curing patients. Their process is:
1) What are the symptoms?
2) Which big pharma rep bought me that tomahawk steak last week?
3) Prescribe dogshit pills from said pharma rep’s company
