How to do the Band Good Morning
- 1
Using a 41 inch band, stand on one end, spreading your feet a small amount. Bend at the hips to loop the end of the band behind your neck. This will be your starting position.
- 2
Keeping your legs straight, extend through the hips to come to a near vertical position.
- 3
Ensure that you do not round your back as you go down back to the starting position.
Log it, see it on your body.
Every Band Good Morning set you log feeds Ascend's anatomy heatmap — so your hamstrings volume is visible at a glance — and counts toward your bodyweight-strength tier.
