Kettlebell Goodmorning Overview

The kettlebell Goodmorning workout is a lower body exercise that primarily targets the lower back and glutes.

By holding a kettlebell in front of the body, the weight adds resistance to the movement.

This exercise involves hinging at the hips and bending forward while keeping the back straight.

While the kettlebell Goodmorning workout may engage other muscles, its main focus is on the lower back and glutes.

Kettlebell Goodmorning Instructions

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes pointing slightly outward.
  2. Hold a kettlebell with both hands, letting it hang in front of your thighs.
  3. Engage your core and keep your back straight as you hinge forward at the hips.
  4. Lower your torso until it is parallel to the floor, maintaining a slight bend in your knees.
  5. Keep your head aligned with your spine and your gaze forward.
  6. Pause briefly in the bottom position, feeling a stretch in your hamstrings.
  7. Push through your heels and squeeze your glutes to return to the starting position.

Kettlebell Goodmorning Tips

  1. Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out, and hold the kettlebell with both hands in front of your chest, keeping your core engaged.
  2. Initiate the movement by hinging at your hips, pushing your glutes back while maintaining a slight bend in your knees, and allowing the kettlebell to lower towards the ground.
  3. Focus on keeping your spine neutral throughout the exercise, avoiding any rounding or excessive arching of your lower back. This will help engage your lower back muscles effectively.
  4. As you lower down, feel the stretch in your hamstrings and the tension building up in your glutes. Keep your chest lifted and your shoulders pulled back to maintain proper form.
  5. Drive through your heels, squeeze your glutes, and engage your lower back as you return to the starting position. Imagine pushing the ground away from you to generate power and activate those muscles.
