HAMSTRINGS

Dumbbell Good Morning

BeginnerDumbbell

The dumbbell good morning trains the posterior chain, the hamstrings, glutes, and lower back, with a load held at the chest instead of on the back. That setup keeps the spine in a safer position and makes it far more approachable for beginners. It builds hip mobility and back strength while improving posture.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Hold a single dumbbell by its heads against your chest.

  2. 2

    Roll your shoulders back and down and stand with feet about shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent.

  3. 3

    Brace your core and keep your back straight.

  4. 4

    Hinge your hips back and let your knees bend as needed while your torso leans forward with a flat back.

  5. 5

    Drive your hips forward and squeeze your glutes and hamstrings to return to standing.
