How much weight do you use on good mornings?

[kingc_79]

I'm asking b/c i just started incorporating them in recently and i dont really know what if the weight i'm doing is good/avg/weak or what for my size. I'm 5'8, 170lbs. 365bs for 2 reps

I'm 5'9" and about 175-177ish.

44" chain suspended I use 425

36" chain suspended with 265 bent over or 221 arched

A free standing I use as accessory work in a higher rep range with anywhere from 135-185 on there (wide stance arched back). I generally go down to parallel with the floor on bent over, and until I lose my arch on arched-backs.

Without having seen you doing it (i.e. how much leg you're putting into it and how far down you're going), I'd have to say those are AWESOME numbers.

i try to keep my legs really close together so they dont come in and i usually go down to parallel to the floor or really close to it.
thanks

I use them for singles and triples on rare occasions, standing with a 16" cambered bar for a single 725, in chains way lower like 635, I prefer freestanding because I don't have to wedge myself under the bar to get going, really want spotters on these and I don't always go for pr's if I don't feel 110%-they are very hard on you imo. Also go wide stance one w/o and close stance one w/o to alternate.
