Pigeon Pose

Pigeon Pose Good Mornings combine the hip stretch of the Pigeon Stretch with the forward bend of traditional Good Mornings. This exercise improves hip mobility while simultaneously strengthening the lower back and glutes. The upright posture and controlled forward bend specifically target hip flexibility and core stability.

Pigeon Pose Good Mornings are an advanced variation of classic Good Mornings and an extremely effective mobility exercise. They allow for active engagement with load through the full range of motion, optimizing both mobility and stability.

This exercise primarily targets your glutes, hamstrings, and lower back. It is ideal for beginners, positively impacting mobility and supporting muscle growth. For advanced practitioners, Weighted Good Mornings are recommended.

The Reverse Nordic is an effective exercise that primarily strengthens the thigh muscles while simultaneously stretching the hip flexors. In this movement, you kneel on the ground and lean your torso backward in a controlled manner while keeping the hips extended. This requires both strength in the legs and core as well as good hip flexor flexibility.

As the counterpart to classic Nordic Hamstring Curls, which focus on the posterior thigh muscles, the Reverse Nordic targets the anterior thigh muscles. While the Reverse Nordic involves leaning the torso backward, the Nordic Hamstring Curls involve leaning forward and controlling the descent. Both exercises complement each other perfectly for a balanced leg workout.
