Good mornings – how to do it right

Hands at your chest, hinge forward from the hips with a flat back.

This is how Stickfreed, our glowing stick figure, shows you the exercise on your TV – here the start, middle and end position. In the app he turns slowly so you can see everything.

How to do it

  1. Hands at your chest with soft knees.
  2. Hips back and keep your back straight.
  3. Only as far as your back stays straight – then stand up.

How long?

As a warm-up, 30 seconds, nice and easy.

If something niggles

Back acting up? Then do Glute bridge instead – BLOX swaps it automatically if you mention it at the start. Stop if it hurts; if you have complaints or pre-existing conditions, check with a doctor or physio first.

In BLOX

Part of these blocks: Warm-up (intense). BLOX builds your workout from them – based on your time, energy and how you feel today.
