GOAL
Loading the hips and legs while maintaining and more upright chest for less back strain and more glute focus
 1. Begin with a bar loaded on the ground. The feet should be set very wide, near the collars. Bend at the hips to grip the bar. The arms should be directly below the shoulders, inside the legs, and you can use a pronated grip, a mixed grip, or hook grip. Relax the shoulders, which in effect lengthens your arms.
2. Take a breath, and then lower your hips, looking forward with your head with your chest up. Drive through the floor, spreading your feet apart, with your weight on the back half of your feet. Extend through the hips and knees.
3. As the bar passes through the knees, lean back and drive the hips into the bar, pulling your shoulder blades together.
4. Return the weight to the ground by bending at the hips and controlling the weight on the way down

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

Sumo Deadlift

GOAL 
Upper back demolition without any lower back stress

DETAILS
1. Set bench to 45 degree incline. 
2. Waddle over it with two DBs.
3. Slightly retract your shoulder blades. Begin the rep by squeezing back with your shoulder blades.
4. Squeeze the elbows back towards your belly button and pull your chest up to nearly upright.
5. Stop once your elbow is bent at 90 degrees and at your ribs, then slowly lower the dumbbell back.
6. Try to squeeze your shoulder blades at the top of each row.

CUES - Proud Chest
- Elbows to Belly Button 
- Initiate with Shoulder Blades

Seal Rows

GOAL
Lower back, ab and hamstring dominator 

DETAILS
1. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart.
2. Holding two dumbbells by your sides, bend at the hips, keeping your knees soft and feet planted on the floor.
3. With arms straight, reach toward the space between your feet as far as you feel comfortable without rounding through your lower back or losing the feeling of having your feet planted into the floor.
4. To stand, press the floor away.

CUES
- Flat Back 
- Reach Hips Back
- Brace Abs

Dumbbell Stiff Leg Deadlifts

Upper Back Pump

GOAL
Stop that quad loading lunge and sit back into the hips for glute work and team no knee pain

DETAILS
1. With barbell on back, retract shoulder blades and get a proud chest.  
2. Initiate the movement by taking a step back. Reach your hips back and lower the chest slightly over the knee. Contacting the back leg through only the ball of the foot, descend until your knee nearly touches the ground. 
3. Lower slow, load the hip and then to stand drive from the front leg, not back. 
4. Do desired reps on one side, then switch. 
 CUES
- Hip Loading
- Proud Chest

Barbell Reverse Lunge

GOAL
Even out those hips and challenge your posterior chain #gains
 DETAILS
1. Stand tall, with a barbell centered over your shoelaces.
2. To start, place one foot backward so that the ball of your foot is in line with your heel.
3. Raise the rear heel and try to feel most of your weight on the front foot.
4. Keep even pressure through your front foot, and reach your hips backward, letting the front knee slightly bend as your hips go back.
5. Grip the bar and stand up.
6.  Lower the bar the same way that you picked it up and gently tap the floor before standing again.
7. Finish one leg and do reps on other. 

CUES
- Flat Back
- Brace Abs
- Squeeze Armpits

Staggered Stance Barbell Deadlift

Hip Work

GOAL
Wanna look like Wonder Woman with a wide back down to a small, tapered waist? Pull down more. 

DETAILS
1. Get your sternum facing up towards the ceiling #GirlsGoneToTheGym
2. Grip the bar wide, whatever that means for your arm length. 
3. BEGIN the rep with shoulder blade retraction. 
4. Externally rotate aka show your arm pits.
5. Exhale and pull bar to just below your chest. 
6. When pulling, your elbows should be slightly behind the bar/your spine. 
7. Release and control the negative. Repeat. 
Pro- Tip: As you pull down squeeze those armpits. Also don't let elbows go in front of the bar. 

Why do elbows have so much to do with this shit? Because proper elbow mechanics = proper scapula mechanics. Also, breathe. Exhale on pull, inhale at top. 

CUES
- Pull with the Elbows
- Show the Armpits
- Squeeze the Pits
- Shoulder Blades Back and Down
- Proud Chest

Wide Grip Lat Pulldown

GOAL
Get an apple ass, lunge correctly, strengthen the hips, & correct imbalances #HighKeyBenefits

DETAILS
1. Stand with feet shoulder width apart. Chest up, shoulders back. 
2. Shift your weight to your stationary leg and reach behind with the other leg to take a wide, lateral step.
3. Look like the cute cowgirl you are and keep those hips straight forward as you descend into your lunge. 
3. Front knee pushes out like the squat, pressure is in the heels, stretch is in glute medius, aka side butt.
4. Drive out of the position through your heels. 
5. Repeat until desired reps. Then switch legs.

CUES
- Don't Look Like a Drunk Cowgirl
- Slow and Controlled 
- Drive from Heels
- Knee Pushes Out

Dumbbell Curtsy Lunge

Optional

GOAL
We’re thickening the density of your abdominal wall for a proper 6-pack. My favorite exercise for abs, ever. 

DETAILS
1. Use a close grip attachment and pick a challenging weight. 
2. Get on your hands and knees and walk back about 6 feet from the machine. 
3. Squeeze your elbows around your head. 
4. Hover over the space ahead of you. 
5. Begin by crunching the belly button into the spine. 
6. Find your balance and isolate the ab crunch. 
7. Avoid pushing the hips back towards your feet as you crunch. 

CUES 
- Hollow Rock
- Hover

Cable Crunch

GOAL
One of my favorite lower ab exercises - use that mind muscle connection to tuck your pelvis and contract the lower abs

1. Lie down on a decline bench with your legs fully extended and arms to the side of your torso with the palms on the floor. Your arms should be stationary for the entire exercise.
2. Move your legs up so that your thighs are perpendicular to the floor and feet are together. This is the starting position.
3. While inhaling, move your legs towards the torso as you roll your pelvis backwards and you raise your hips off the floor. 
4. Hold the contraction for a second and move your legs back to the starting position while exhaling.

CUES
- Crunch Abs into Belly Button 
- Knees Up to Ceiling

Decline Reverse Crunch

Ab Builder

GOAL
Athletic advantage, injury prevention and oblique shredder

DETAILS
1. Set up a cable above shoulder height. 
2. Grab the end with both arms extended. 
3. Start with shoulders, hips, and feet square/straight forward. 
4. Rotate the torso away from the anchor point, keeping the hips square. 
5. Then, chop that wood by rotating torso towards your hip and slightly towards the ground.
6. Squeeze abs & exhale. Return slowly to start position. Repeat. 

Pro-Tips: Ribs are tucked and you compress/crunch your abs a little. Back foot pivots as you chop. Hips can rotate or stay stationary, whichever gives you a better ab squeeze. 

CUES
- Squeeze Butt
- Rotate Torso
- Tuck Ribs
- Crunch Ribs to Hip Slightly
- Straight Arms Whole Time

Wood Chop

GOAL
V-line maker 

DETAILS
1. Start in a perfect side plank. Feet stacked on top of each other & elbow under shoulder. 
2. Squeeze your butt hard and create tension in your obliques. 
3. Slowly drop your hip towards the ground and squeeze oblique to raise up to neutral.
4. Repeat. Be sure to lower slow & squeeze, not just bounce and relax. 

Reps are per side.

CUES
- Slow
- Squeeze
- Palm Down for Stability
