EXERCISES: Good Mornings

Oxygen Magazine in May 2003 with Strength coach, Charles Poliquin and moel Sarah Orbanic

This is a great exercise for the lower back and hams. Be careful to choose a barbell (BB) weight that you can lift over your head, essentially a shoulder press or the "jerk" of a "clean and jerk" if you need assistance. I did the "jerk" today because I was so tired to get my 60lb BB over my head for my last few sets of Good Mornings which was at the end of my hour-long workout today. Also, I go down a bit farther than she does in the demo here.

About This Blog

I am Tori (FITori) and welcome to my blog!!!

I created this blog from the encouragement of my best friend who pushed me to start a blog about my passion, which I am always talking about! It started as a way to inspire others the way I have been inspired and to share what inspires me. I also want to share with you what I have learned through my years of research on health and fitness.

For me, this blog is a great place for me to document my fitness journey. I decided to compete this year, but have transferred that goal to next year so that I can bulk and compete in Figure. This blog is my accountability and hopefully I can get some advice and tips along the way. I am hoping that I can learn from you all also as I post what I am learning along the way. If I am wrong or there is advice for me, I want it! I want your theories. What are you doing differently?

I'm also looking for accountability to keep this up and inspiration from you all. I read your blogs and get inspired and knowing you're reading mine keeps me going!

Thank you for your support!!! Let me know if you have any special requests for blog posts!
