Good Morning
Bar on the back; hinge at the hips with a flat back until the torso nears horizontal, then drive back up.
How to do it
Setup
Bar on the upper back as for squats, feet hip-width, knees soft.
Steps
- Push the hips back, folding the torso toward parallel.
- Keep the back flat and the bar over mid-foot.
- Drive the hips forward to stand.
Common mistakes
Bending at the spine instead of the hips: the fold is a hinge; chest stays long. Knees locking straight: soft angle, fixed. Going heavier than the hamstrings allow: this is a light, strict lift.
Breathing
Inhale hinging down, exhale driving up.
