One of those ones that (to me) feels weirdly fine but then with the numbers I pulled I know I have it in for me the next two days

Harley

GOAL
Stack that bottom, work on positioning and get steel cut glutes and hamstrings

DETAILS
1. Like you’re doing a regular back extension, but squeeze at the top and bend the knees.
2. Get a stacked position where the shoulders are back, ribs are tucked and butt is squeezed. 
3. Maintain this position for as long as possible as you hinge down into a back extension.
4. Repeat and squeeze from your hamstrings and glutes to rise. 

CUES - Ribs Tucked
- Squeeze Glutes

Bent Knee Back Exensions

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
Static hold to develop the isometric core strength 

DETAILS
1. With the back extension hip pad just below the hips, face up. 
2. Squeeze butt, tuck pelvis. 
3. Reach overhead for added challenge. 
4. Try to focus on maintaining a perfect line in the back. 
5. Hold for max effort. 

CUES 
- Sternum Up
- Squeeze Butt
- Tuck Pelvis

Flip on Back Extension

Trunk work

GOAL
Lower back, ab and hamstring dominator 

1. Grasp a bar on the floor using an overhand grip. Stand with your torso straight and a shoulder-width stance. The knees should be slightly bent. This is your starting position.
2. Keeping the knees stationary, lower the barbell to over the top of your feet by bending at the waist while keeping your back arched.
3. Continue to the bottom of your hip flexibility without ever compensating through your lumbar in an effort to extend the range of motion. Pause at the bottom and return to the starting position.
4. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

CUES
- Flat Back 
- Reach Hips Back
- Brace Abs

Stiff Leg Deadlift

GOAL
Hip loading and constant tension for booty gains

DETAILS
1. Rest the smith machine bar slightly below traps. 
2. Get in a lunge position. 
3. Begin lowering by reaching the hips back with a very flat back aka arched back a bit. 
4. Lower the hip to be parallel with knee. 
5. Stand by driving from the heel and keeping the chest over the knee slightly. 

CUES
- Hip Loading
- Chest Over Knee Slightly
- Flat Back

Smith Machine Lunge *Glute Focus*

Slow tempo. Hold for 2 seconds at top of rep. Then

GOAL
The benefits remain endless. Lockout strength, mass on booty, dimple reducer, and awkward eye contact opportunities

DETAILS
1. Lying on your back either on a bench or on the floor.
2. Bend at the knees, and plant your feet into the floor.
3. Press into the floor with your feet to raise your hips, and squeeze your glutes at the to initiate the movement.
4. Exhale gently to engage your abs, putting less pressure on your lower back.

CUES
- Initiate with Squeeze of Booty
- Drive from Heels
- Knees Over Ankles

Bodyweight Glute Bridge

GOAL
Ultimate glute builder without loading the spine 

DETAILS
1. Begin seated on the ground with a bench directly behind you. Have a loaded barbell over your legs. Having a pad on the bar can greatly reduce the discomfort caused by this exercise.
2. Roll the bar so that it is directly above your hips, and lean back against the bench so that your shoulder blades are near the top of it.
3. Begin the movement by squeezing your butt. 
4. Push through your heels and tuck your pelvis. Focus more on glute activation and tucking the pelvis rather than how high you can push the bar. 
5. Slowly lower by pushing the hips down and repeat. 

CUES
- Initiate from Glutes
- Tuck Pelvis

Barbell Glute Bridge

GOAL
Pump those quads like a basketball needing air. Note: if you have pain in your knees, do hip loading squats to a box. 

DETAILS
1. Proud chest, feet under hips. 
2. Begin descent by pushing hips back and knees forward at the same time to maintain at upright chest. 
3. Lower slowly, keeping chest up. 
4. Squeeze quads to stand. 

Pro-tip: don’t lock out knees at the top. 

CUES
- Proud Chest 
- Pump Quads 
- Toes Forward
- Weight in Middle of Foot

Bodyweight Suitcase Deadlift

Glute Attack

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

GOAL
Sculpt those hamstrings without lower back pressure, aka isolation exercise #HamTings

DETAILS
1. Tuck your pelvis into the hip pad. 
2. Point your toes like a ballerina. The weight will just feel heavier, you're welcome. If you flex your toes, you tryna lift with your calves...don't do that. 
3. Get in a full length leg stretch then curl the weight by squeezeing from your hamstrings with a controlled negative.
4. Exhale on the curl, inhale on the negative

CUES
- Slow Negative
- Stay Focused 
- Relax the Toes
- Tempo is Life

MODIFICATIONS
One legged - say bye-bye-bye to those imbalances. Add in quarter reps, pulses, and holds for the ultimate life-altering experience.
