Loved this work out and found some new exercises I’d never tried before. It really engaged muscles in every area of my back.

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
Wider back for a tighter waist and strong look

DETAILS 
1. Grab the pull up bar with arms fully extended and externally rotate your shoulders, think of showing your armpits forward. 
2. Begin by retracting your shoulder blades back to initiate the movement and follow through by squeezing your elbows down towards your hips. 
3. Keep your sternum up towards the ceiling and squeeze your armpits hard. 
4. Try to get chin over bar, exhale and lower slowly. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Squeeze Armpits
- Show the Armpits

Wide Grip Pull Up

GOAL
Lat squeeze that feels awkward but good. This one will help you depress your shoulder blades

DETAILS
1. Set a cable pulley to high setting and use a handle attachment. 
2. Stand perpendicular to the cable and stand tall. 
3. Begin by squeezing your arm pit.
4. Squeeze the handle down towards your hip by depressing your shoulder blades. 
5. Externally rotate your shoulder throughout the movement aka try to show the armpit as you press down. 
6. Slowly come back up.  
7. Limit range of motion if you’re having a hard time feeling this one. Focus on your shoulder blade movement, not what your handle is doing. 

CUES
- Squeeze Armpit
- Proud Chest 
- Externally Rotate Shoulder

Single Arm Cable Pushdown

GOAL
Thicker back for better posture and a better life

DETAILS 
1. Stiffen up your hamstrings and slightly bend your knees. 
2. Stiffen up your back and get a proud chest. 
3. Try to angle the sternum up towards the ceiling. 
4. Begin by squeezing your shoulder blades together.
5. Finish by pulling the elbows towards the belly button. 
6. Squeeze hard at the peak. Then slowly come back to start. 
7. Keep lower back arched the whole time. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Right Triangle 
- Depress & Retract Shoulder Blades

Close Grip Cable Row

GOAL
Scapular depression aka lat work for a wider back and narrow waist 

DETAILS
1. Place a dumbbell standing up on a flat bench.
2. Lie perpendicular to the bench (torso across it as in forming a cross) with only your shoulders lying on the surface.
3. Grasp the dumbbell with both hands and hold it straight over your chest at arms length. Both palms should be pressing against the underside one of the sides of the dumbbell. This will be your starting position, make sure the weight is secure.
4. While keeping your arms straight, lower the weight slowly in an arc behind your head while breathing in until you feel a stretch on the armpit.
5. At that point, bring the dumbbell back to the starting position by depressing your shoulder blades, using the arc through which the weight was lowered and exhale as you perform this movement.
6. Hold the weight on the initial position for a second and repeat the movement. 

CUES
- Initiate with Scapula 
- Squeeze Your Butt
- Slightly Bend Elbows

Dumbbell Pull Overs

Back Pump

GOAL
This is the flour to the cupcake, the butter to the donut, the sole to your Nikes, the string to your Yo-Yo, the milk to your cereal. Best introduction to rowing/learning to squeeze the shit out of your back.

DETAILS
1. Start with on a Smith Machine or TRX cables set at around chest height, lower if you're a lil badass. 
2. Walk your feet in front of the bar while holding onto the bar. Woooo feels like your going to fall back on your ass but since your upper body is rock solid, you gucci. 
3. Initiate by squeezing back with the shoulder blades.
4. Pull just below your sports bra, and keep the right triangle in your elbow. If any of that dish is off, you probably have to lower that bar or walk your feet in. 

CUES

- Squeeze Back With Shoulder Blades
- Chest up
- Flat Back
- Tuck the Ribs
- Don't Sag
- Plank Position

Underhand Inverted Row

GOAL
Goddamn this is tough. But honestly we need weight to carve some abs in. Go as heavy as possible for the time allotted. 

DETAILS
1. Get on your hands and knees.
2. Add a weight plate or dumbbells on your mid back.
3. Have someone assist if needed.
4. Get in a perfect plank position.
5. Feet together, squeeze your butt and exhale through the pain.

CUES 
- Squeeze Butt
- Crunch Abs into Spine
- Hollow Rock

Weighted Plank

Burn Out

GOAL
Athletic advantage, injury prevention and oblique shredder

DETAILS
1. Set up a cable to the lowest height [note you can also set to shoulder height or above for other angles]. 
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
