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. 

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

Back Extensions

GOAL
Loading the hips and legs while maintaining and more upright chest for less back strain and more glute focus

1. Get like a sumo wrestler, aka legs wide
and toes pointing out. Leg width is
dependent on what feels
strongest/your leg length.
2. Push your knees outside of the bar,
ground yourself in your heel, rigid back,
and grab the bar.
3. Chest is as upright as possible, which is
pretty much the point of this exercise.
You're able to keep your chest up, push
the weight back into your hips, glutes,
and hamstrings and SQUEEZE.
Using the leverage on the bar, rock your
hips back and start pulling 10%. You'll
feel pressure in your lower glutes and
get rid of the slack from you to the bar.
4. Once you feel the tight position with
your abs braced THEN AND ONLY
THEN can you lift the weight.
5. Squeeze your glutes, push your knees out,
and drive your legs into the ground.
6. Don't overarch at the top. Just stand
until your shoulders are just behind the
bar. #RibsTucked

CUES
- Spread the Earth with Your Feet
- Squeeze Glutes
- Retract Spine
- Brace Abs

Sumo Deadlift

Swap vertical leg press for belt squat or leg press if you don’t have the machine.

GOAL
Strengthen your leg drive with minimal spinal loading 

DETAILS
1. Feet position - Put them up high to stretch and work those hamstrings/glutes, or put them lower and closer together to smash those quads. 
2. Begin by pinning your shoulder blades into the pad, getting a proud chest, and setting your feet.
3. Un-rack the weight and lower slowly.
4. Keep the knees driving out slightly. Don't look like Bambi just coming out of the womb.
5. At the bottom, only go low enough where your lower back is still against the back pad.
6. Drive from heels to extend legs and don't lock out the knees fully at the top. We ain't tryna blow a knee.

CUES
- Back Pinned Against the Pad
- Knees Track Out
- Push from Heels

Vertical leg press

GOAL
Anti-cankle life - I got thick ankles so I need to do extra. 

DETAILS
1. Stand tall with appropriate weight.
2. Hang heels on edge of platform. 
3. Begin by fully stretching the heel down.
4. Pause. Squeeze calves up to raise on tippy toes. 
5. Slowly lower to full stretch. Repeat. 
6. Do pulse reps to hit failure. 

CUES
- Full Stretch
- Exhale on Up

Standing Calf Raise

Press n Pump

GOAL
Pre-exhaust those legs before heavy squats and/or build the ‘tear drop’ look without too many tears of pain #JkItHurts

DETAILS
1. Begin in a seated position on the leg extension machine. Knees are just off the edge of the seat.
2. Weight pad is resting above ankles.
3. Use the quadriceps to extend your legs fully as you exhale. 
4. Inhale on the negative and go down slowly if you a real savage. 
5. Pulse reps can be added. 

CUES
- Squeeze from Quads
- Slow Negative
- Hold Hips Down

Leg Extensions (10 heavy + 10 1/4 pulse)

GOAL
Cardio with retraction and leg drive. Welp, meet the Erg. 

DETAILS
1. Adjust the footpads to your foot size and adjust the damper depending on distance/desired resistance. The higher the number, the higher the resistance, thus the more meters rowed in a stroke.
2. Starting position, aka the catch has arms straight, upper body is leaning forward with shoulders in front of hips, shins are vertical and heels are raised as needed.
3. The drive - start by pressing with your legs. Once your shoulder pass your hips, arm row can finally be added.
4. The finish - Once knees are extended, upper body is leaning back slightly, and then you pull with your arms. 
5. Shoulders remain low and relaxed.
6. Extend your arms fully BEFORE leaning forward at the hips and breaking at the knees.
Pro-Tip: Timing is everything. Don't pull with the arms early on the drive. 

CUES
- Drive with Legs
- Back Neutral
- Extend Legs
- Pull to Belly Button
- Release Arms

I’d love some shorter workouts on the fighter feed. I find they always take me longer than the estimated time and finding it hard to fit the whole workout in amongst full time work, looking after dogs etc.
