Barbell Good morning

Description

The barbell good morning is an excellent exercise for strengthening the lower back, hamstrings, and glutes. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Place a barbell on your upper back, just below your neck, and hold it with an overhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
  2. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.
  3. Keep your back straight and your core engaged as you hinge at the hips, lowering your torso until it is almost parallel to the floor.
  4. Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement.
  5. Raise your torso back to the starting position by extending your hips.
  6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
