Had to take a week off as I had an upper respiratory thing going on. Glad to be back!

Andrea

Christina

Felt good to work out in the afternoon today after my flight home!

These are the same workouts as week 3! The purpose of this is to use heavier weights this week to build your muscle up! 🙌🏻

Walk 5-15 mins (depending on how much time you have) backwards on the treadmill. Go at a comfortable pace, (2-3 speed) no incline.

Warm Up

-Put a band 1-2 inches above your knees
-Get on all fours
-Kick your leg back
-Really squeeze at the top of the exercise to get your glutes activated

Banded Kickback

-Put a band 1-2 inches above your knee
-While keeping it bent, raise your knee out to the side
-Release back down

Banded Fire Hydrant

Superset

-Load up a barbell on your back
-Sit your butt back, keeping the weight in your heels
-Squat as far down as you’re comfortable with

Back Squats

-You can do this on plates, a slant board or on an elevated surface with a dumbbell under your heel
-Elevate your heel and bend your leg, tap your opposite heel on the ground
-Straighten your leg

Reverse Step Up

-Keep a slight bent in the standing leg
-Hold a weight in the opposite hand as the standing leg
-Hinge at the hips, keeping your back flat and raising your back leg
-Go until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings on the standing leg
-Control back up

Single Leg RDL

-Put a bar across your lap (put a yoga mat under the bar for some cushion if needed)
-Put your shoulders on the bench and raise your hips up, keeping your chin tucked
-Lower your hips back down without arching your back. Think hinge instead of a bend.

Hip Thrust

-Jump staring with 2 feet and land onto 1 foot on the box
-I recommend finding an actual box meant for box jumps instead of a bench, but a bench will work too!

Box Jump (for balance)

Triset

-Put your hands against a wall
-Walk your feet out to the furthest point you can keep your heels flat on the ground, you should feel a stretch in your calf
-Raise your heels up and back down

FHL Calf Raise

-Put your butt against a wall and walk your feet out
-The further your feet are away from the wall, the harder it is
-Put your hands above your knees so your quad doesn’t take over 
-Lift your toes up and down

Tibialis Raise

Do one minute of each leg for the Couch Stretch, 1 minute Pancake Stretch, then 1 min each leg for Outer Glute Stretches, then finish with a second minute of Pancake Stretch.

**DO NOT SKIP THESE! Strength through range of motion is so important!

-Get a yoga mat or pad and put it up the wall and on the floor 
-Put your back shin flat against the wall
-Bring your front leg up into a lunge position 
-Lift your torso up as high as you can, you probably won’t be able to be upright the first couple of times you do this stretch
-Work your way to getting your shoulders to the wall

Couch Stretch

-Sit with your feet straight out in front of you
-Reach your hands over towards your toes 
-Work your way into touching your toes and pulling your upper body towards your toes and laying your chest flat on your legs

Pancake Stretch

-Place your foot on a surface that’s about hip level
-Let your knee hang and let gravity do the stretching for you

Outer Glute Stretch

Lower Body Stretch
