Belly Fat Reducer: Good Mornings
Continued from Belly Fat Exercise.
Good Mornings Position a barbell on your back as if you were going to squat, but with a closer foot stance. Take a deep breath and, maintaining the natural curvature of your spine, unlock your knees slightly and begin leaning forward at your waist.
Lower your torso as far as your flexibility allows, but don’t go significantly lower than the point at which your chest is parallel to the ground. Raise your torso back to the start position, maintaining your back position and exhaling as you pass the sticking point.
Training Tip: Concentrate on your hamstrings the entire movement, and don’t let your knees bend further as you lean forward. As you rise, force the energy down through your heels.
If you do this exercise regularly, it should help reduce the likelihood of injury when you go heavy on squats. However, this movement does pose a risk to your lumbar spine, so it must be performed with caution.
