Stick Good Morning
1 - Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and place a lightweight stick or dowel rod across your upper back, resting it on your traps and rear deltoids, holding it with both hands wider than shoulder-width.
2 - Stand tall with your chest up, core braced, and a slight natural arch in your lower back.
3 - Push your hips back and hinge forward at the hips, maintaining a neutral spine throughout the movement.
4 - Continue hinging until your torso is roughly parallel to the floor or until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings, keeping your knees slightly bent.
5 - Pause briefly at the bottom position, ensuring your back remains flat and your weight is distributed through your heels.
6 - Drive your hips forward and squeeze your glutes to return to the upright starting position.
7 - Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, focusing on the hip hinge mechanics rather than loading.
