Seated Band Good Mornings
Muscles Activated: Lower/mid back and hamstrings.
Seated good mornings introduce a new variation that takes the gluteus muscles out of the equation.
By taking the gluteus muscles out of the movement the lower back and hamstrings become the primary movers to complete the designated task.
With knees already in a flexed position, the hamstrings are strongly activated at the beginning of the movement and the stretched is maximized at the bottom of the lift.
Beginners need to stay with low tension Pro Athletic Bands such as the #1 or #2 bands. It is wise for the novice to stay with high reps until technique has been perfected and strength has increased.
As the athlete improves, he/she can use greater tension and lower the trunk so the shoulders are below the hips in the bottom position.
