- step back on the stool to lift up again & repeat

Pull Up Negatives

- Loop a band around a pull up bar
- grab the ends with secure grip 
- step into a stable semi-lunge position as low as needed depending on the height of your bar ( you should feel some tension already in the band when arms are straight over head )
- pull down until hands reach shoulder height & arms form a W shape
- flex your back then rise back up all the way to straight arms before pulling again

Resistance Band Pull Downs

Tempo: 2010
1. Get into a traditional push up position by placing your hands slightly wider than shoulder width on a bench, box, or step and extend your legs straight back, maintaining a strong core and flat back.
2. Lower your chest towards the bench by bending your elbows.
3. As your chest reaches just above the bench, press your hands through the bench to push your body back to the starting position.
4. Repeat.

Incline Push Up

3. Use your arms to slowly move your hamstrings forward and backward over the foam roller from the bottom of your glutes to the top of the back of the knee.

Foam Roller Quadriceps Massage (20 sec/leg)

4. Use your feet to slowly roll forward and backward on top of the foam roller over your upper back then stop rolling once you reach your middle back as you want to be careful rolling over your lower back to prevent injury.
