Good mornings

Postby emoth1 » Mon Mar 01, 2010 8:30 pm

When performing good mornings, does the 'up' phase want to be a pulling action or a pushing action. I know it's meant to target hamstrings, so I would've thought you should be 'pulling' the weight back up, but I always feel more comfortable when driving the hips forward, and my head/shoulders/the bar coming up just feels like a by product of that.
Does it even matter?!

Cheers,
Ed

It's like a squat, you drive your traps into the bar and push your hips forward at the same time.
