Tip: Try the Overhead Carry

 

Overhead carries consist of locking out barbells, dumbbells, or kettlebells overhead. They directly force the spine into hyperextension because the overhead lever is so long. This challenges you to maintain a tight rib-to-pelvis relationship and to stabilize a good upwardly-rotated position for the scapulae.

They're a good choice for people who tend to be stuck in extension – depressed scapulae and clavicle, tonic lats and erectors, rib flare, etc.
