Setup Tips for beginners: 1) Use adjustable bench and set incline to your maximum depth to make sure you don’t lose posture. 2) Elevate your hips above knees. Either using a non-slipping pad on top of bench or blocks below bench. Allows you to get sufficient load if mobility is poor. Tip for advanced: -if you can already reach parallel progress mobility further either by raising knees above hips (allows deeper hip flexion without reducing tension) or by straightening out the knee (go to pancake)
Which muscles are actually being used in the movement? If you're keeping your whole back flat then it's not those as isometric =/= movement. Your quads are locked out. Am I pulling through my hamstrings? Am I squeezing my legs together? Apart?
I can only go down about 35 degrees. Trying to recover from herniated disc/DDD/low back pain. This shows me how tight I am how do I start out and develop flexibility
did you know this doesnt actually train the glutes? youre sitting down and the glutes are unloaded. this exercise was used to rehab the spinal erectors DUE to the glutes being unloaded 👍👍
this is how i understood seated good mornings to. you will also feel it in the hamstrings, hold and let the stretch on the bottom, also use cable pulleys not a bar.
@@uku7883 no. its poor for the adductors. just do direct adductor work. this is like saying bicep curls work the triceps too because of the lowering phase.
@@smplfi9859 as long as youre sitting, the muscles that cross the hip are getting near nothing in terms of resistance. people like this use sensation as a reason for something working, but its just untrue.
I love this detailed explanation
The top part of my abs touch (top of ribs) but not my entire core. Time to train 🥲

It's training your hip extensors, i.e., your glutes and hamstrings.
Man I love this exercise. I have such long arms so it’s gonna get complicated when I get better at it lol

You could start out with just your bodyweight. Once you nail that variation, add in a light dumbbell and progress from there. Hope this helps!
SSB Bar is best for it with rack

It is for the inner part of the legs too.

That got my lower core hurting
🔥
should you arch your back while doing this exercises?
We recommend not to purposely arch your back. Think about keeping a tight core the entire time.
so press your abs togehter?@@FunctionalBodybuilding
