OHH! No wonder my weightlifting coach always made us do good mornings. I never had the back issues that so many other lifters had. Huh. He was a good coach. Was also my anatomy teacher
@@G3RM3X617 what? I’ve seen no evidence of that published anywhere. Anecdotal evidence just means the people around you aren’t doing the movement correctly.
Remember people, when doing lower back exercises, tilt that pelvis backwards and slightly tense your abdominal muscles. It is SO easy to get lowerback injuries because it is not supported by the abdominal muscles
I have a few herniated disks and I really hate good mornings, no matter how much I concentrate and create stiffness on my core it always feels sketchy :(
Same thing Bruce Lee broke his back on it’s a great exercise but I personally think it puts a lot of pressure on the lumbar. Rather do weighted back extensions
Dude squat uni I know you get props every video you post but you’re changing my entire life with all of this stuff. One of the greatest in the fitness shorts community undoubtedly.
I have started adding these in my routine and I have one tip: Go WAY EASIER than you'd think on these. Leave like 5-6 reps in the tank and start with only 1-2 sets. I did 3 sets with light weight at 3-4 reps in reserve and I didn't recover for 5 days
Good mornings are frowned upon by a lot of people, they can seriously hurt your back if you dont do it properly. Safest exercise to strengthen lower back that's worked for me is doing hyperextensions holding a 45lb or whatever size plate, using a hyperextension bench.
Right I was looking for it too It's essentially the same movement, but much safer to load way up and overload If you try to add weight to a good morning, you could get into trouble if you find you can't handle the weight - with an RDL, you'd just drop the bar
Check out the seated Goodmorning from knees over toes guy, it isn’t as intimidating as standing goodmorning and it’s safer since you can adjust the elevation on the bench to your own mobility/strength
It makes more sense to do an RDL instead. It's the exact same movement, but you hold the barbell in your hands rather than on your back, which is infinitely more comfortable and safe.
@@fire_playz3348 the involvement of the glutes in squats depends a lot on anatomy, and deadlifts tax the whole posterior chain so much that it would not make sense to have them as your only glute exercise. Hip thrusts are king for glutes.
Barbell squats and deadlifts are fine, your posterior chain will be several orders of magnitudes stronger than the average man/woman after a year of training both those lifts.
Do it carefully though people, start with small range on motion and with no weight even if you are fit, not saying this as an experts, but as someone with imbalances and weakness in the lower back who tried it.
I feel like body weight back extensions are so much simpler, yet just as effective, if not more so here. It seems to me, especially if it came to newbies, that “good mornings” could EASILY cause many injuries/pain, even with just the bar alone. Much like dead lifts, there’s so much room for error and injury if done slightly incorrect at all. Body weight back extensions are much more forgiving and newbie-friendly as a light to moderate exercise. With proper form to many other exercises, isolated lower back training should really just be supplemental and taken more lightly compared to other muscle groups, since the lower back muscles are very much used and worked on in common weight lifting forms and exercises anyway. Basically, much like the abs, lower back muscles can and should be worked on with simply your body weight if worked on isolated.
That was how Bruce Lee hurt his back. He started off with these and dint warm up. He said he didn't need to add weight the bar was heavy enough for this exercise.
It is same as the position of Ruku In the Five times SALAT of Muslims done at least minimum 17 times a day. Peace and blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.)
it feels like only my glutes and hamstrings are getting activated, not low back. It also doesn't make sense how the lower back muscles are getting engaged / stretched here
I need to loosen the hams first because good morning could be good night.
Fkin underrated comment
GMs will help with that my friend, best of luck
I’m laughing in bed atm that shit was funny
Loaded mobility training is underrated too
😂😂😂
Every exercise is a lower back exercise if you do it wrong enough 😁
So true😭🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
I almost spit my food
Calf raises?
@@dosomestuff1949 if your doing them hunched forward then I guess
Proper posture: good morning
Improper posture: good night
🤣
W joke😂😂
😂
I'm warning BBB, get real, or I'll smack you.
Just bent the knees
OHH! No wonder my weightlifting coach always made us do good mornings. I never had the back issues that so many other lifters had. Huh. He was a good coach. Was also my anatomy teacher
This workout has also been known to have a high injury ratio. Tons of people get hurt doing these.
@@G3RM3X617not being stupid is the key. You shouldnt max out good mornings smh
Sounds kinda goated to be teaching those in combination ngl
@@G3RM3X617 what? I’ve seen no evidence of that published anywhere. Anecdotal evidence just means the people around you aren’t doing the movement correctly.
What’s a good program for a beginner to incorporate this in his routine?
Remember people, when doing lower back exercises, tilt that pelvis backwards and slightly tense your abdominal muscles. It is SO easy to get lowerback injuries because it is not supported by the abdominal muscles
Another private exercise that I'm gonna do alone at home
Lmao why you don’t want people staring at your dumpy?
Ok dio
Nah embraces the sus exercises and don’t skip leg day.
Do it at gym most people dont do it and only real ones know. Might get some beginners asking u to teach them how to do them.
The sus exercises are usually the best ones
Dang man I wish I could schedule something with ya man ... I can tell your passionate about how you train people,that's the kind of pt or dpt I need
Fr, the Physical Therapists that I’ve seen aren’t that interested in helping with weight training relating movements
Can anyone please comment how dareful and polite was the gentleman to match his socks with the dumbells? That's metaphysical skill.
Those are plates, bb.
Let's comment 😊
I had a weak back......a week back😬
😅
Bars
Someone once said, "if you do any exercise with a bad enough form, it'll become a lower back exercise."
It took me a long time to learn how to hinge properly without putting pressure on the back. That is a fantastic explanation with the foam roller.
I used to have a terrible lower back and just doing deadlifts fixed it
I have a few herniated disks and I really hate good mornings, no matter how much I concentrate and create stiffness on my core it always feels sketchy :(
Yeah I wouldn't do them with herniated disks, that's probably pretty dangerous
Seated good mornings are great
Best thing I ever learned was you don’t have to do any workout that makes your bones and ligaments feel sketchy
Do lumbar híper extensions. Good mornings aren’t very safe imo.
I had my spine fused with a titanium rod and struggle with squats and things like these
He always the best training tips
Same thing Bruce Lee broke his back on it’s a great exercise but I personally think it puts a lot of pressure on the lumbar.
Rather do weighted back extensions
These actually cause my back pain. :/ that’s why I say these out in every sport I competed in
Yoooo this help my lower back with no weight help fix my lower back pain thank youuuuuu
Dude squat uni I know you get props every video you post but you’re changing my entire life with all of this stuff. One of the greatest in the fitness shorts community undoubtedly.
These get my abs popping like nothing else. Anyone looking for a killer core workout, this is it.
Even crazier on the abs is the oldtimey strongman version where you put the bar or weights up overhead and bend over with it above your head.
@MyWatermelonz Sounds too crazy to be true. Idk how it could be done with weights.
I've added these to my warm up routine and some morning mobility routines, good stuff.
Thank you so much!!!! I needed this!!!!
That foam roller trick is pretty neat for teaching a hip hinge 👌
I have started adding these in my routine and I have one tip: Go WAY EASIER than you'd think on these. Leave like 5-6 reps in the tank and start with only 1-2 sets. I did 3 sets with light weight at 3-4 reps in reserve and I didn't recover for 5 days
I did tried it this morning….all I can say is THANK YOUUUUU!!!! 😁Adding this to my daily morning and nightly routine! ❤️❤️
That foam roller trick is golden. I can feel my lower back lighting up without any weight
East asian people have the best lower back. Their greeting is always the good morning posture
I wish I could save shorts to a Playlist to watch again at the gym
That hinge properly thing is a good trick I wish I knew a while back
Thanks for making such high quality content.
A few years back they said this is the worst practise u can do
Bruce Lee destroyed his back with this one
Been looking for this video. Thanks so much
Love you channel. Thank you for the educations.
Just started training a few weeks ago and definitely pulled something in my lower back after some deep squats, definitely needed to know this
NICE. GOD BLESS YOU MAN. JESUS LOVES YOU

Most people are not that smart and they do the goodmorning wrong. Yeah hyper extensions are great but people gotta put respect on the GM
I do this everyday in prayers. A really nice movement for the lower back. 😊
How many sets snd reps?
Needed this man
Thank you for this info.
Very helpful and informed piece of advice to utilize foam roller to ensure a person becomes familiar with their hinge position.
Imagine doing a good morning in the middle of the night😂 funny name.
Just do RDLs, its also very good for lower back
I've been looking for thus comment. Plus RDLs give trap and forearm training
Right
I was looking for it too
It's essentially the same movement, but much safer to load way up and overload
If you try to add weight to a good morning, you could get into trouble if you find you can't handle the weight - with an RDL, you'd just drop the bar
Nice. Never thought anyone would cover this.
This man is doing great things. Thank you, squat university man
If you've got a bad lower back, you ain't doing good mornings.
Try it with just the foam roller.
Very dangerous exercise there are other options, many people have been hurt
Not at all stop chatting shit 🤦♂️👍
Tweaked my back this morning doing DL... will be adding this after recovery
Good to see Shaggy's been lifting
I’ve done this exercise for so long but with a dumbbell and it still works wonders.
Where are my people who swear by back extensions?
Pendlay rows solos all other lower back exercises
Game changer for me and my lumbar 😅
You are a hero
Check out the seated Goodmorning from knees over toes guy, it isn’t as intimidating as standing goodmorning and it’s safer since you can adjust the elevation on the bench to your own mobility/strength

Thanks 💯
never thought i’d get training tips from shaggy
Ouch, That one would pull my back every time. I can’t do those
This has motivated me
bro got that johny bravo physique
Please talk about WEAK GLUTES!
Do squats and deadlifts
@@fire_playz3348 the involvement of the glutes in squats depends a lot on anatomy, and deadlifts tax the whole posterior chain so much that it would not make sense to have them as your only glute exercise. Hip thrusts are king for glutes.
@@sw-gz9ps Having an activation routine before hip thrusts is a game changer
Sideplank clamshells!
@@balazodeldiabl7592 they already wreck my glutes without one, but ill keep that in mind if i hit a plateau i guess
Barbell squats and deadlifts are fine, your posterior chain will be several orders of magnitudes stronger than the average man/woman after a year of training both those lifts.
This looks very similar to romanian deadlift tbh
Could also do bent over rows, deadlifts and RDLs. All of which engage the entire posterior chain
Love the foam roller trick to practice the correct form
I ❤️ the good morning exercise 💪
I actually do this, except without weights. I mostly did it as a result prep to get in shape, but it really works the back of the legs and lower back.
So many people on another short said good mornings are the worst possible exercise for the back vs others
Thank you
Thanks
Good mornings are great, but nothing will bulletproof your back life getting good and strong at deadlifting
Annndddd I just learned something. Thanks
I started doing machine back extensions to target the lower back. It has a similar motion to this exercise also.
That foam roller trick is crazy good for all hip hinge movements
You can also do RDL if you want cause it’s the same movement just loading the weight in different way
Deadlift left the chat.
Romanian deadlift never arrived
Great content as usual. I start doing this next week.
I preferred doing back extensions on the machine.
I just do heavy deadlifts with different variations and I can say I have a strong low back, but definitely I'm gonna add this to my routine
vegan dan green
Well, good night. Have a nice dream 😊
Great!!!
This too was very confusing
Imagine going past failure on these and falling on your face 😂
Started doing this movement with no weight to stretch tight hamstrings and build hinge form.
Budget Dan Greene in the house
For most people I'd rather have them do 45° extensions on a fixed machine. Good mornings are highly technical. Even a SLDL would be better.
Do it carefully though people, start with small range on motion and with no weight even if you are fit, not saying this as an experts, but as someone with imbalances and weakness in the lower back who tried it.
Remember! Don't go heavy with this exercise. Start super light first.
At exactly :34 seconds I saw him get a piece of that cake. Squat university, I see you.
I do back extensions with the machine. I add weights over time
I said goodbye to it but my back pain won't let it go
This one can easily fk your back up and me dealing with back pain for years am always scared to do this
Just the deadlifts variation where you use hamstring and lower back
Also, an excellent exercise to train the portion of the calf and hamstring that cross the knee joint having them squeezed while being fully stretched
I agree the deadlift
I feel like body weight back extensions are so much simpler, yet just as effective, if not more so here. It seems to me, especially if it came to newbies, that “good mornings” could EASILY cause many injuries/pain, even with just the bar alone.

Seated good mornings are a touch easier for correct form and limited hamstring pain

As a strong guy I do these with a broomstick and feel it alot don't do it heavy
I find a low bar squat position is much more comfortable and prevents the bar from rolling forward.
it feels like only my glutes and hamstrings are getting activated, not low back.
It also doesn't make sense how the lower back muscles are getting engaged / stretched here
No good night is the best lower back workout.
