Week 6 Day 5: Glutes focus 🍑 

You’ll notice this workout is very similar to week 3 day 5, aim to progressive overload and push yourself! 

Make yourself proud & don’t forget to let me know how much you crushed it! You got this! 🤜🏼🤛🏼

- 10 per side 
-Begin with one foot back
- Lower down to 90 degrees and rise back up

Stationary Lunge

- Place band around your thighs
- Assume half squatted position
- Keep feet shoulder width apart and straight ahead
- Step laterally with one leg then catch up with the other

Lateral banded squat walk

Warmup:

- Begin with dumbbells in your hand and feet hip width apart
- Spine remaining in a neutral position, - -Lower the dumbbells to the ground down your shins pressing your hips back while keeping slightly bent knees (you’ll want to “hinge your hips” versus squatting)
- Once you feel the stretch in your hamstrings, you’ll return back to the starting position by pressing hips forward. 
-Keep the bar and dumbbells close to your legs versus drifting away from your body 
- use dumbbells or bar

Stiff legged deadlift

- From a standing position take one giant step back 
- Drop your back knee towards the floor until both legs are bent at 90 degrees
- Stand back up to the starting position
- 10 per leg

Reverse Lunge

Superset #1:

This is a “pyramid style”, with each set the rep amount will decrease. You will aim to INCREASE the amount of weight you are using as the reps decrease. Remember - form is most important, but challenge yourself with the weight! If you aren’t able to increase the weight, stick with 12-15 reps for weighted hip thrusts for each set!

- Support upper back on a bench and the barbell across your hips
- With both knees bent to 90 degrees 
- Lower your glutes to the floor and press back up to starting, contract your glute muscles
- use a barbell or dumbbells

Weighted hip thrusts

Superset #2:

DB deadlift to a clean and then squat! This is 1 rep!

Deadlift to clean and squat

Stand-alone:

Complete the movements consecutively with minimal rest. Rest briefly after the final movement and repeat again. We want to keep those muscles active and working as much as possible through the 4 rounds!

- Keep your hips in the same place as you step up
- Come down with a slow controlled movement
 - 10 reps per side

Lateral step ups

Start with your feet together on on side of the bench.

Jump up with both feet over the bench and onto the other side.

Jump back to the strating position and repeat action.

Bench Lateral Jumps

- Place the heel of one foot on an elevated surface 
- place palms down on ground, lift core/glutes off the ground and extend, squeeze glutes at the top and return to starting position 
- 10 per side

SL Heel Elevated Glute Bridge

Mallory

Week 4 Day 1: Upper Body + Cardio Conditioning

Upped my weights and definitely feeling it this morning.

The lying hamstring curls are a game changer for me… I hurt my knee a few years ago and hamstring exercises usually hurt my knee but I could do those! And that finisher… 🥵

Week 4 Day 2: Lower Body

Feels so good to have this a active rest day in the middle of the week! Walking off the soreness is such a good feeling!

Week 4 Day 3: LISS

Those renegade rows with a push-up were the death of me and that core circuit had my abs on 🔥

Really felt the burn in the core circuit. Still struggling with renegade rows. Mostly the push up part & being able to steadily hold up my body weight. I’ll get there though!

Love the core work, I didn’t realize how much work I still have left to do in the core department at one year postpartum!

Week 4 Day 4: Upper Body + Core

One of my faves, even though I might puke! My whole body is shaking. Love it! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Week 4 Day 5: Glutes

Omg.  I am dead.  Four rounds of finishers.  Just getting around to doing this.  I had some gym classes.  So not totally slacking!

Mindy Denton

Christine Jones

Week 5 Day 1: Upper Body + Cardio conditioning

I could definitely tell I was stronger than the last time I did these moves! The split squats were easier. Last time we did the split squat jumps I could hardly jump my one leg off the ground. This time I was able to get my foot off the ground and actually complete the exercise correctly.

Week 5 Day 2: Lower Body

🧘‍♀️ stretches & relaxes my full body. Def uses strength I've gained throughout challenge.
