Good Morning
The good morning is a hip hinge for the hamstrings, done with a barbell. It also works the lower back (spinal erectors) and glutes. On weyt.ai it counts toward Balance as Hamstrings (minimum 6 sets per 30 days) and toward your 12-week strength trend as a barbell lift, one of the compounds the coach reads first.

How weyt.ai scores it
- Balance: every logged set counts toward the Hamstrings group, which needs at least 6 sets per 30 days for full credit.
- Strength: counts as a lift. Your best working set each session feeds a best lift estimate (an estimated one-rep max) per lift, read over 12 weeks on the Strength screen; as a barbell lift it is one of the compounds the coach reads first.
- Routine: any session that includes it counts toward your weekly target, the 4-week consistency window and your streak.
Scoring is plain arithmetic, not AI: the same sets always give the same result. Read the method on the about page.
