HOW TO DO THE GOOD MORNING WORKOUT

The good morning workout strengthens the back, glutes, hamstrings, and abs.

The strain on these muscles is increased while using a weighted barbell, but beginners should begin with a moderate weight (or no weight at all).

Place your feet shoulder-width apart while keeping your knees slightly bent. Put a barbell on your shoulders that is the right weight so that the bar sits on your upper back's trapezius muscles close to your shoulders. 1. Breathe deeply and brace your upper back and abdomen.

2. When you exhale, you'll move your hips backward and your upper body forward. When your upper body is almost parallel to the floor, stop.

3. As you get back to where you were, take a breath. Benefits: With this exercise, your hamstrings (back of the thigh) are the main target, but other muscle groups benefit as well.

Good mornings are an excellent technique to increase the strength in your legs, hips, and back because they use all of these muscle groups. Utilizing a weighted barbell increases the load and further engages these muscles.
