Just saw that they have an old school cambered bar at my gym hidden in the back. Only prob is it looks alittle more bowed and at first glance doesn't look like it can be racked. Weird, but im going to give it a shot Monday.

I think thats why someone has came up with the newer style rackable bar. I am going to use it for suspended good mornings.
Let me know how it works.

depending on the squat rack and bar sometimes its just best to use straps to hang the bar from instead of racking it for good mornings.

I am using a safty squat bar right now, but it seams like the weight is in the wrong place. I dont know if that makes sense on not. My glutes and hams need work and with the safty squat bar the pressure is on my back. I am still learning the good morning and I always look for any advantage I can get.

The weight is more out in front of you to thrown you foward it teaches you to stay tight.

Use a wide stance to hit hams good but you'll always hit low back.

When the weight gets heavy you swing the bar to get yourself set proper!
