How to: PVC Good Morning

  1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and hold a stick across your upper back.
  2. Hinge at your hips and bend forward while keeping your legs straight.
  3. Lower your torso until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings, then return to the starting position.

Common Mistakes

  • Rounding the back during the movement.
  • Bending the knees too much instead of hinging at the hips.
  • Not maintaining tension in the hamstrings.

Modifications

  • Use a lighter stick or perform the exercise without additional weight for beginners.
  • Perform the exercise while seated for those with mobility issues.

Tips

  • Engage your core throughout the movement to maintain stability.
  • Keep your back straight and avoid rounding your shoulders.
