    Chuck, I know you PM'd me, apologies for not getting back to you.

    The Turk appears to have you well covered. Though I may ditch good mornings for correctly performed romanian deadlifts.

    Agreed.

    Good Morning is an inferior exercise compared to Romanian Deadlifts from many angles.

    There is yet not another exercise in BB that engages as many muscle fibers in a single exercise as Romanian Deadlift does. However, the form has to be perfect and either straps or hooks are strongly suggested when heavy weights are involved, many BBs including myself suffer from tendon and ligament injuries especially around the Brachioradialis area due to having performed such heavy pull exercises for an extended period of time. Regardless, Romanian Deadlift is one exercise I will never give up conducting.
