Good Morning Into Squat
1 - Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and place a barbell across your upper back (traps), gripping it firmly with both hands just outside shoulder width.
2 - Brace your core, keep your chest up, and maintain a neutral spine throughout the movement.
3 - Hinge at the hips by pushing them back and lowering your torso forward until it is nearly parallel to the floor, keeping your knees slightly bent — this is the Good Morning phase.
4 - Pause briefly at the bottom of the hinge, then drive your hips forward and return your torso to an upright position.
5 - Without pausing, immediately transition into a squat by pushing your hips back and down, bending your knees to lower your body until your thighs are at least parallel to the floor — this is the Squat phase.
6 - Drive through your heels to press the floor away, extending your hips and knees to return to the standing position.
7 - Repeat the sequence — Good Morning followed by Squat — for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining control and a neutral spine throughout.
