The Band Good Morning primarily works the hamstrings, with the glutes and lower back supporting the movement. It is a powerlifting movement performed with bands.
1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Using a 41 inch band, stand on one end, spreading your feet a small amount. Bend at the hips to loop the end of the band behind your neck. This will be your starting position.
Keeping your legs straight, extend through the hips to come to a near vertical position.
Ensure that you do not round your back as you go down back to the starting position.
Technique guidance
Inhale and set your trunk before the lowering phase, then exhale as you extend the hips. Reset your breath between controlled repetitions.
General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same bands setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Band Good Morning sessions.
Weight, repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 3 sets of 8 reps at 30 kg. Next time, record the actual result, even if it is the same.
Look for more repetitions at the same weight, or a heavier weight for comparable repetitions. Total weight lifted also changes when you add sets, so it is not a strength score.
