Detroit Tigers Justin Verlander: Reverse Hypers Exercise
Justin Verlander, a pitcher for the Detroit Tigers Major League Baseball (MBA) team and his training coach Javair Gillett teach the physioball reverse hypers exercise. ""Well, the important thing on that exercise is you have to keep your hips on the ball. It?s not like your hips are off the ball, and you got to work on squeezing your butt. And it?s not a lower back let?s-try-to-get-the-lower-back-working. It?s let?s- squeeze-the-butt-and-get-to-th -range-of-motion-of-your-straight-line, all right? You?re straight. It?s not hyperextended where your feet go over your body. When your feet go over your body, you?re using the hamstrings a little much. You got to keep yourself straight and try to relax the hamstrings and just use your butt. Keep your legs perfectly straight and squeeze the butt and just get to a straight stiff board.""

That's a great prehab/rehab exercise when you don't use any additional resistance. It doesn't strengthen anything when you're already strong. The technique they were using is the "strengthen" way (waste of time for verlander) not prehab. No wonder he gave up so many runs in 2008.
