Why might men find the "back support" exercise challenging?

The "back support" exercise can be particularly challenging for men primarily due to reduced flexibility in the hips. This exercise requires a certain amount of hip flexibility to allow for proper positioning and alignment during the movement. Without adequate flexibility in the hip joints, individuals may struggle to achieve the correct posture, which can lead to discomfort or an inability to perform the exercise effectively.

In many cases, men may have tighter hip flexors and less overall hip mobility compared to women, contributing to the difficulty. Engaging in this exercise requires not only core strength and stability but also the capacity to move freely through the hip joints. Therefore, if there is a limitation in hip flexibility, it can significantly hinder the ability to maintain the required position during the "back support" exercise.
