• 1998 — Arnold Schwarzenegger, The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding, p.354

  Later, to Deadlifts you'll add other back exercises such as Hyperextensions and Good Mornings.

  Performed on a special bench, the bending and straightening at the waist is similar to Good Mornings and safer for someone with lower-back problems.
