Exercise Spotlight – Good Morning

7/16/2019

 
personal training coaching in glasgow - learn the good morning gym technique
The Good Morning is a hip hinge movement and is very similar to the Romanian Deadlift in terms of execution. The only difference is where the weight is loaded and thus how it challenges the muscles involved. A well-executed good morning relies on a good hinge pattern. It can be inherently risking due to the forward lean and placement of the weight on the back so it is important to take this into consideration before planning it within your routine. 
Exercise Suitability:
Beginners: ✔️
Advanced: ✔️
 
What are the key technique points?
  • Keep the core braced and back in neutral throughout
  • Start the descent by pushing your hips back and your chest forward, your weight will naturally shift back as you achieve greater range of motion.
  •  Make sure that you feel it in your hamstring (back of legs) as you bend over only going as far as your flexibility allows without sacrificing back positioning.
  • Come back up by squeezing your glutes and driving your heels into the ground to find the movement.
If you'd like to have some in person coaching then I have a range of options available in Glasgow from private 1 2 1 training, group training and even weight training technique workshops. You can view the options by clicking here.
