Good Morning Exercise

Description

Standing, place the bar on your shoulders, with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent or straight. Then bend your torso until you approach 90 degrees of flexion while keeping the bar on your shoulders, and then return to the starting position. Make sure to keep your back straight throughout the exercise to protect your spine, even favoring a slight arch rather than a rounded back. Lift the weight primarily using your hamstrings and glutes, avoiding excessive strain on your lower back. You should feel the contraction of the muscles at the back of your thighs during the movement.
