This video demonstrates an exercise to strengthen extension of the trunk.
In case you cannot see the video, here is a still sequence -
 |
Lie on your back on a firm surface. Bend the knees to 90 degrees and firmly hold a soccer ball between the knees. |
 |
In an 'unwinding' movement, slowly lift the buttocks and lower back. |
 |
Hold this position for a few seconds. |
 |
Slowly allow the lower back and then the buttocks to 'unwind' to the resting position. |
 |
Relax, and then repeat ten times. |
