Cable Good Morning: how to do it and form tips

A good morning variation with a low-cable attachment behind you that provides consistent tension throughout the hip hinge, making it more beginner-friendly than the barbell version.

Form tips

  1. Attach a rope or strap to a low pulley and stand facing away from the machine.
  2. Hinge forward at the hip while the cable resists your movement, feel it in your hamstrings and glutes.
  3. The cable's pulling angle also challenges your anti-rotation stability, engaging the core more than a barbell good morning.
