I noticed that when I did the exercis, the curved surface of the car seat helped me flex my knees more so that I could get a greater range of motion. Although you can t directly attribute all his lifting success to one exercise, it should be noted that in 1974 after Charniga began performing the exercise, he snatched 352 pounds, only 5 pounds off the American record in his bodyweight division.<br>In 1979 Charniga visited Russia and found that every gym he looked in had a glute-ham station, and that the exercise was an integral part of the taining of Russian weightlifters. He saw that weightlifters would often perform some variation of the exercse twice in a workout, once before the workout with light weights as a warm-up, and again at the end of the workout with heavy weights as a strengthening exercise. This sensible practice was also followed in the U.S. In fact, five-time national weightlifting champion Ken Clark, whose picture appears in the BFS Total Program Book, began every workout with several sets of back extension exercises. In 1983, at a body weight of 220 pounds, Clark clean and jerked 470 pounds, an American record that has yet to be equaled.<br>While in Russia, Charniga noticed that not much had changed in regard to how the exercise was performed since that first Strength and Health article, with the exception that some gyms had positioned straps to secure the feet.  They simply didn t have access to materials, or the budget, to have someone make a sophisticated glute-ham developer for them. When Charniga returned to the U.S. and told others of his findings and his success with the exercise himself, resourceful equipment manufacturers began experimenting with designs for a glute-ham developer. The BFS glute-ham developer, with its adjustable foot plate and rounded pelvic support represents he latest in the evolution of this apparatus.<br>The glute-ham exercise is a must for every serious strength training program. When I was hired as a strength coach for the U.S. Air Force Academy in 1987, my first day on the job I ordered two BFS glute-ham developers. Because we had to work with nearly 1,000 athletes, the Academy needed to purchase equipment that was durable, functional and versatile.
