A day dedicated to the back of the legs, the hamstrings, and the glutes.

3 sets
15 reps
controlled tempo
45 seconds rest

SUBSTITUTION: If you don't have kettlebells, you can do this with a dumbbell, holding it at one end to swing it. 

- Start with the kettlebell on the ground in front of you
- With chest lifted and core engaged, bend at the waist
- Lift the kettlebell off the ground allowing it to swing back between your legs
- Drive your hips forward, propelling the kettlebell forward and up
- Stopping just in front of the shoulders 
- Allow the kettlebell to swing down and back between the legs, moving immediately into the next rep
-This is NOT a pump with the legs; it is a hinge at the hips

Kettlebell Swings

🚨 READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Set 1
10 reps >> START WITH THE SAME WEIGHT YOU DID YOUR LAST SET OF 10 WITH LAST WEEK
controlled tempo

Done

- Grab the dumbbells while keeping your arms straight
- Push your chest out and don’t lift your head to look up
- Let your gaze move naturally with your spine movement, gazing straight ahead when you are standing upright
- Inhale as you initiate the deadlift by pressing through your heels and engaging your upper body and legs
- Extend your knees and hips simultaneously as the dumbbells pass your knees, and continue up to a standing position with the dumbbells by your sides
- Maintain your neutral back throughout the lift, taking care not to hyperextend your lower back at the top of the repetition

**Remember! The deadlift is a PUSH with the legs, not a pull with the back!

Dual Dumbbell Deadlifts

3 sets
15 reps
controlled tempo
60 seconds rest

- Keeping the dumbbells glued to your legs, slowly lower the dumbbells with a slight bend in your knees, hinging at the hips and keeping your back straight
- Lower the dumbbells until you feel a slight stretch in your hamstrings
- Drive your hips forward and use your hamstrings and glutes to power back to standing
-The goal of the Romanian deadlift is to get the hips back as far as safely possible, NOT to get the chest as close to the floor as possible.

Dumbbell Romanian Deadlift

A "superset" is an exercise sequence where you do the prescribed exercises one after another. 

In this superset, you will do:

A - Dumbbell Glute Bridge
15 reps
controlled tempo - but with a 2s pause at the top!
No rest; go directly onto B

B - Banded Quadruped Kickback
15 reps on each side
controlled tempo
60s rest, then got back to A

Repeat this superset 3 times.

You can do this at home with your back on a chair, sofa or ottoman.

- Perform glute bridges holding a dumbbell at the hips.

Dumbbell Glute Bridge

🚨 30 reps = 15 reps on each side

- Place the band just above your knees
- Go on your hands and knees, back neutral, abs braced
- Keep your face down so your neck is in line with your spine
- Do not arch your back
- Take one leg and drive it up, maintaining the 90 degree angle and the foot should end with the sole facing the ceiling
- Lower slowly
- To increase the intensity you can hold the extended position longer and do the exercises slower
