I’ve never tried the abductor until this… turns out my glutes have been been missing out 🔥🔥🍑

Jess

I noticed a couple of minor typos! Chin instead of shin on the RDL’s I think, and something on the kickbacks just accidental typos I assume! Loved the workout!

I started crying working out with this program because I was going through some mental health problems and I finished my workout like a winner. Thank you! It helped me through mentally

🔸Choose a bench/elevated surface that is roughly a foot off the ground.

-Use padding on the barbell
-Place upper back, right below shoulder blades
-Place feet at least shoulder width apart and far enough out to create a 90 degree angle at top
-Keep your chin tucked and neck/spine neutral
-Your upper body should remain stable through the movement. This is a hip hinge movement
-Do not hyeprextend at the top, still squeeze glutes 
-Keep movement slow and controlled

Barbell hip thrusts

- Begin with bar positioned on your upper back
- Brace your midline and keep your chest up
- Eyes forward as you lower, sitting back and down
- Reach parallel and push through your heels to come back up

Barbell back squat

-feet shoulder width apart-slight bend in knees
-shoulders retracted backwards and upper body tight
-neck and spine neutral
-big inhale to fill core with pressure before descending
-initiate movement by driving hips BACK, not rounding shoulders and dropping chest 
-neck should follow spine
-keep dumbbells along shins throughout movement 
-go down to where you feel tension in hamstrings and there’s no spinal flexing (rounded back)
-squeeze glutes at bottom, thrust hips forward (like a standing hip thrust)
-push through heels
-keep movement slow and controlled

Dumbbell RDL

- stand facing cable, cable set at knee height
- leg not working in perfect alignment with cable
- use ankle attachment
-rotate feet at 30 degree angle, take step back from cable to allow room for leg to move across
- working leg, being foot slightly over stationary foot then you’ll kickback on an angle 
-keeping core braced & pelvic stable
- don’t kick leg too far out or too far back
- slow and controlled

Glute med kickback

- Keeping your feet aligned with your knees 
- Push out your legs against the pads 
- Ensure your movement against the resistance is smooth and controlled

Abductor machine

- Press up using your toes activating your calf muscles
- Lower slowly stretching the calf muscles

Seated calf raise
