Band good morning
- Basic
- Resistance band
Hips back with a flat back, soft knees
Muscles worked
- Primary:
- Hamstrings
- Secondary:
- Glutes
How to do it
- Stand on the band with both feet and loop it behind your neck, over the traps.
- Push your hips back, lowering your torso with a flat back.
- Come up squeezing your glutes until you're tall.
Common mistakes
- Bending the knees a lot and turning it into a squat.
- Resting the band on your neck instead of your traps.
Tips
- The safest way to learn the hip hinge without free weights.
- The band pulls hardest at the top: it forces a stronger glute squeeze.
