Upper Body Active Recovery Workout: Feel Refreshed and Strong

Recovery is just as important as your training days when it comes to long-term progress and overall health. If you’re feeling tight, sore, or just need to give your body a break from high-intensity training, an upper body active recovery session is the perfect solution.

Instead of going all-out, focus on movements that promote blood flow, mobility, and light strengthening. This type of workout doesn’t just help you recover faster—it also builds resilience over time. With the Hyper Pro, you can seamlessly incorporate these exercises into your routine, whether you’re training at home or in a gym.

Here’s a simple yet effective Upper Body Active Recovery Workout that will leave you feeling refreshed, energized, and ready for your next big session.

The Workout:

1. Face Pulls – 3 x 12-15

This movement targets the rear delts and upper back, helping improve posture and reduce tension caused by sitting or poor alignment.

How to Perform:

• Set up your Leg Developer + Upper Body Mode on the Hyper Pro
• Holding the Upper Body Straps, pull the weight towards your face keeping tension through your shoulders and upper back.
• Return to the starting position slow and controlled.

2. Full Range Pullover – 3 x 8-10

Open up your shoulders and upper back while strengthening the muscles that stabilize your torso.

How to Perform:

• Set your Hyper Pro to 20-25 degree Incline Nordic Mode.
• Lay on your back with your feet against the ankle rollers.
• With your shoulders resting just above the back extension pads, raise your hands over head.
• Reach your hands back behind you until you feel the stretch in your chest & lats.
