Er is zo veel wijsheid op het net te vinden...
Het blijft wel belangrijk je eigen conclusies te trekken.
Liefst nadat je een oefening de kans hebt gegeven z'n nut te bewijzen.
Als je denkt dat de goodmorning je (onder)rug niet aanpakt, heb je hem nog nooit gedaan denk ik...
En ja, inderdaad... net als bij hyperextensions en stiff legged deadlifts doen de hamstrings enorm veel werk tijdens de uitvoering er van, maar dat betekend niet dat je de rug er niet mee aanspreekt...
Quote:
Good-morning is a weight training exercise in which a
barbell or two
dumbbells are held on the shoulders, behind the head. The person bends forward bow at the hips and recovers to upright. The good-morning is so called because the movement resembles
bowing to greet someone. It involves the
hamstrings but is primarily used to strengthen the
lower back; the degree of knee bend used will change the focus -- nearly straight-legged involving the hamstrings most.
The good-morning is a controversial exercise as some will claim that it leads to lower back injuries. Famously,
Bruce Lee seriously injured himself while performing the exercise after an inadequate warm-up and overconfidently selecting his working weight. On the other hand, the good-morning can also strengthen the lower back and prevent injury when properly applied.
Performing the good morning strengthens the posterior chain, which includes the lower back, glutes and hamstrings. The glutes (butt) and the hamstrings are responsible for hip extension while the muscles of the lower back (erector spinea) are contracted statically.
I would advise anyone with a history of back trauma to avoid this exercise. However, when performed correctly, this movement is a good lower back exercise for those who can tolerate it.
