I really love olu's energy. He had so much to say. And also think it's great that Aaron let him talk. This video had the same vibe as a conversation rather than a lecture. Love how it turned out.

Hey Aaron, big fan of your work. I am really glad to see you cover good mornings and general hamstring pathologies. I have noticed that, quality hamstring related rehab seems to be lacking on youtube and I always love how you break down the approaches to isolate issues into specific causes, so perhaps this is a great area to invest in, content-wise? As a 6'8 beginning athlete, I'm often worried about lifts such as barbell rows or good mornings - due to the amount of sheer force that can be placed on the spine because of the "long levers". Would be excellent if you could provide general advice for taller athletes regarding these exercises and/or the best way to execute them, etc. :)

Thanks for the tips. My trainer recently started adding these into my sessions. My abs are getting super strong.

Great video , very informative

You can't even lie....this video was very informative. I read that Bruce Lee hurt his back doing these so I wanted to learn the exercise right...great video

That’s a cool bar

Thanks a lot!

I love this videos .

This is my favorite exercise of all time and going by the video I guess I've been doing it wrong my whole life. I used to love maxing out on this exercise. And I would always get a pump in my lower back.

Hate to be this way because the content is amazing, but my like on this video is purely in response to seeing Olu for this first time in a while! Miss seeing you on @neversate.

Another great video. Can I ask, other than the variation for where the weight is positioned, are the coaching points the same for both the Good Morning and the Romanian Deadlift in terms of the movement or are there other differences?

Sir make a video on hernia and how to strength our core after hernia surgery

If you do any Olympic weightlifting then these are a must to build that upper back stability under load. However, the risk to rewards is too high for just hypertrophy benefits which the Romanian Deadlift already covers as you'll end up doing upper back work anyways during back and pull days.

I like doing 20 reps sets immediately following heavy squats and or deadlifts - to decompress. It works incredible for recovery at 53 yrs old. Good morning and lunges are the #1 exercises to increase for squat / deadlift.

Hey nice video should these be done stiff legged or knee bent?

great video :) but why is this better than RDL? btw how josiah doing? ive just watched his story and is he ok>?

Can you make a video on how to grow calves?

So if a back pump can means your core is not engaged properly, does that also possibly mean that maybe the weight is too high?

Great video. Just one quick question. Since I don't have access to either of these equipments but still want to take benefit of these exercises can I use a resistance bands around my head as replacement? Or would different strength curve cause some issue?

You've likely found an answer elsewhere already but In case you haven't; absolutely use resistance bands across shoulders. I've used sand bags as well

Aaron, normally you stress the importance of hip mobility when you are helping athletes with sciatica. Do you have another video that covers how to find that proper position for good mornings?

I’ve just started doing these this week with an empty bar after another muscle pull in the lower back during Deadlifts at the weekend. With this injury recurring every 5 months sporadically, I’m going to have to drop the deadlift (sadly) from my routine and I’m looking for alternative hip hinge / hams workouts.

Should we bend our knees before bending To make it safe

Watching this I now think my deadlift is more of an hybrid with the goodmorning, since I barely flex my knees 🤔 😑

I would say dumbbell good mornings are more efficient imo and you can go heavy.

Dr i cant supinate my left arm,i took a xray and it shows a lemgth difference in my bone,but i can still.lift heave weight and do barbell curls with z bar,but whenever im doing a lateral raise there's a pain,can you help me?

How do you guys feel about doing this if you have anterior pelvic tilt? I’m still able to do deadlifts and squats heavy with no pain, I’m just a little weaker than I normally would be and am extra slow through my sticking points

Good video. But there is nothing wrong with maxing out on a good morning if you like.

Places/people like Westside Barbell have used max effort goodmornings for a lot of success, what are your thoughts on this as obviously sounds like you're against heavy loading of these?

I've been training conjugate myself and been doing lots of GM. I've been doing max effort GM for 8,5, and sometimes 3 reps but never less than that.

I think it's because it's so tempting for the majority to load without noticing the bad form but definitely you can go heavy with those for the experienced

Do you think that we should use good mornings as opposed to rdl's?

@Nihilnovus

You should rotate between those movements. You can get more out of less weight on the good mornings due to the leverages. Overall imo there’s more bang for your buck with the GM

You maxing out on accessories, wenn you do these westside max effort stuff. I'm not a fan of these style of training, it works with a high risk of injuries.

Avoid putting to much weight thats the exercise that fucked up Bruce lee s back
