Instructions
Band Good Morning
Using a 41 inch band, stand on one end, spreading your feet a small amount. Bend at the hips to loop the end of the band behind your neck. This will be your starting position.
Keeping your legs straight, extend through the hips to come to a near vertical position.
Ensure that you do not round your back as you go down back to the starting position.
Kettlebell One-Legged Deadlift
Hold a kettlebell by the handle in one hand. Stand on one leg, on the same side that you hold the kettlebell.
Keeping that knee slightly bent, perform a stiff legged deadlift by bending at the hip, extending your free leg behind you for balance.
Continue lowering the kettlebell until you are parallel to the ground, and then return to the upright position.
Verdict
Both exercises target the hamstrings. Band Good Morning is a beginner exercise using bands, while Kettlebell One-Legged Deadlift is intermediate and uses kettlebells. Choose Band Good Morning if you're looking for a more accessible option, or Kettlebell One-Legged Deadlift for a greater challenge.
