Cat cow

Setup: Get into a quadruped position with the knees under the hips and the hands under the shoulders with the spine in a neutral position. For the first position, place one hand on the upper back or back of the neck. Do not pull down or put pressure into neck with hand.

Action: Begin to rotate leading with the eyes, head and shoulder as far as possible down toward the hand. Then reverse the motion leading with the eyes, head and shoulder rotating upwards as far as possible. Maintain position of opposite arm with elbow extended while moving in both directions and keep the lumbar, thoracic and cervical aligned during rotation. For second position, change the hand position and place it on the low back with the palm facing up. Repeat the exercise with the hand in this position.

Return: Bring the hand back to the start position under the shoulder returning to the full quadruped position after the exercise.

Quadruped T-Spine Thoracic Rotations (15 reps each arm)

Child’s Pose To High Plank Single-arm Reach

Bend in half and place both hands on the floor. Alternate opening up one arm up and open that chest to the opposite wall. Alternate sides.

floor touch rotations

Start in a high plank position. Lift your hips slightly and engage your core. Walk your hands up to your toes and bend in half. Feel a deep stretch in your hamstrings. From here, walk your hands back out to a high plank position. Repeat!

Inchworm plank

Step 1: Attach one end of a resistance band to sturdy object about stomach level. Grab the other end in your right hand with an overhand grip.
Step 2: Next, turn around so the attached end is behind your back. Stand tall and bring your right elbow up so that your upper arm is in line with your shoulder. Bend your elbow 90 degrees so your forearm is perpendicular to the ceiling. This is the starting position.
Step 3: Begin exercise by rotating your forearm down so that your forearm is parallel to the ground, or until you feel a comfortable stretch in your shoulder. Slowly reverse movement back to starting position.

Band shoulder internal rotation (20 each arm)

Fasten an elastic band at elbow height. Grab the band, step away and stand sideways to the band.
Grab the band with your arm that is on the opposite side from the band’s attachment point. Keep your upper arm close to your side, and bend your elbow to 90 degrees.
Rotate your upper arm externally (outwards) against the resistance of the band, as far as possible.
Reverse the movement, and repeat for reps.

Band external shoulder rotations (20 each side)

Grab a resistance band, loop it under your feet, and hold it in each hand, with your arms at your hips. 

Pull the band just up to chest level, flaring your elbows out to the sides. Pause, then reverse the movement.

Deficit push-ups with a pause (3-10 reps range)

Lie on your back on a bench, and hold the dumbbells a few inches above your chest. Press one dumbbell upward until your arm is fully extended. Pause and slowly retract extended arm to start position. Then complete the same motion on the opposite side.

Alternating Dumbbell Bench Press (total reps/split reps)

- Start with your palms facing you
- Press the dumbbells overhead rotating your wrists/arms as you press up
- Palms will be facing forward at the top

Superset 1

- Hinge forward keeping a bend at your knee
- Holding dumbbells in each hand and arms bent to 90 degrees at your sides

- Lower back to starting position

Dumbbell tricep kickbacks

- Place your hands on the front edge of the bench just outside hips
- Move forward off the bench with arms extended and shoulders down 
- Bend at the elbows to lower your body
- Elbows should bend straight back

Bench dips (to failure)

Triceps Superset

Hold a dumbbell in each hand. Start with light weight. 

Raise those arms out laterally. 
Then bring your arms together in front of your body. 
Raise both dumbbells up so your palms face the wall in front of you. 
Then reverse the movement. 
Lower down to a front raise. 
Bring dumbbells back to a lateral raise position and then slowly lower down. 

Engage the core, use lighter weight and control the movement. Don’t rush through it.

Dumbbell 6-way raise

- Keep bend in elbow constant throughout the full ROM
- Achieve a good stretch at the bottom

Incline dumbbell flies

Start on an incline lying on a bench. 

To get into position, lay back and keep the weights close to your chest. Once you are in position, take a deep breath, crush the dumbbells together, then press them to lockout at the top.
Continue to push the dumbbells together while lowering them under control as far as comfortably possible.
Once the dumbbells touch your chest, push them back to the starting position.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
