Heavy Compound movements! Make sure to go heavy and always keeping your form!

GOAL
Pull back to strengthen your retraction muscles aka traps, rear delts, erectors

DETAILS
1. Resistance band is set to right at shoulder height.
2. Retract scapulas back by pulling with your elbows. 
3. At the end of the rep, your wrists are slightly above your elbows. It's almost a half scarecrow position or like a "Put your hands up" type position.
4. Control the negative and return to the start keeping your shoulder blades retracted. 

Side note: This is a very weak position and harder than just a typical row so don't be afraid to go lighter and more for blood flow.

CUES
- Retract & Depress Shoulder Blades
- Wrists above Elbows
- Proud Chest

Banded Face Pulls

GOAL
Wider back for that strong look

DETAILS
1. Resistance band set on a high anchor. 
2. Take a knee. 
3. Lower chest but retract shoulder blades as you pull. Squeeze one down at a time. 
4. Retract and depress shoulder blades. 
5. Squeeze from elbows. 

P. S. Ignore the lower back fat. We all got it lol. 

CUES 
- Proud Chest 
- Right Triangle

Alternating Resistance Band Pulldown

Warm Up

GOAL
Lower back health which is key to life, lifting, good sex, and getting old #ExtensionsForLifeExtension

DETAILS
1. Hinge at the hip and give everyone that million dollar view they don't deserve. 
2. Hang all the way down and initiate the movement by squeezing your glutes.
3. Squeeze your butt and hamstring and raise to be in line with your legs.
4. Hold for a second at the top and slowly lower all the way down. Repeat. 
5. Drop the weight and burn out with bodyweight. 

Pro-Tip: If you walk into the gym and your back hurts, hang off the end of this and wiggle that spine #SideToSide. Hang at the bottom and warm up by just extending a few inches up then coming back down to a relaxed position. Do a set of 30 and feel those lower lumbar say "hayyyy gurrrrl." 

CUES
- Squeeze Yo Ass
- Hinge At the Hip
- Tuck Your Ribs

Weighted Back Extension

GOAL
Barbell row that challenges your back strength and explosiveness in a deadlift 

DETAILS
1. Have a barbell set with bumper plates. 
2. Get your torso parallel to the floor, arch your back and slightly bend your knees. 
3. Hands are usually wide on this one, a few inches outside your shoulder. 
4. With the bar on the ground, explosively pull the bar to below your nipple line. Essentially your lower body stays in a locked position and the upper rows back. 
5. Return weight to the floor and repeat. 

Pro-Tip- Elbows can come out and away from your rib cage on this one. Don't be afraid to be fast to recruit for muscle fibers. 

CUES
- Chest is Proud
- Shoulders Back & Down
- Flat/Arched Back

Pendlay Row

GOAL
The holy grail of rowing. It focuses on scapula retraction and spinal extension #BangForYourBuck

DETAILS

1. With the and hand resting on a bench, let the dumbbell fall directly below that boulder shoulder of yours. 
2. Stiffen/extend your spine. Rounding of the spine inhibits proper shoulder blade retraction/depression.
3. Square up your shoulders.
4. Initiate the first inch of the movement by squeezing/depressing your armpit. Think of "crunching" your armpit to your hip. 
4. Pull elbow to hip, think like you're starting a lawnmower like the little badass you are.
4.When pulling, keep the right triangle bend in your elbow. 

Pro-Tip: Dumbbell moves in an arc or "C" shape from below shoulder to front of hip.

CUES
- Initiate with Scapula 
- Chest is Squared Up
- Flat Back

Dumbbell Single Arm Lat Row *Heavy*

1. Wrap your hands and wear 14-16 oz boxing gloves. 
2. Freestyle box on a heavy bag.
3. Use your footwork and head movement to simulate dodging punches.
4. Work on hip connection to bag, neutral wrist, and speed.

Woo hoo!! I’m glad I did those before it disappeared!🔥🔥✌🏻

Louis

It was great. Having the video guides makes a huge difference

Charlie

Back / Upper Body Pull 👊

Back Builder ⛰

One exercise was repeated through this sequence. Overall makes the exercise way too repetitive and boring. Didn’t feel the back burn I was looking for.

Fucking love your workouts 
It’s muscle paradise

Maybe it’s just me dealing with a crowded gym all the time. But I love doing supersets. But only if it’s on the same machine. Or it’s a machine and a dumbbell. If it’s 2 different machines, it’s hard to hold it down

Back Blast 😝

Megan

Back Day Baby! 🌋

First workout DONE! Thankyou! Videos + explanations are great 😃💪🏻

Redgie

If the gym don’t have that certain equipment what alternative we could replace it with.

Dannelle

Definitely made me feel something I haven’t in a while. And I was surprised by how much I could do given I haven’t worked our consistently in a while

Back Day (upper back thickness) 😎

Found it a bit tricky to get my form right for the superset but will practice it until I get it right. Killer back workout 😎🤙🏽
