Workout was great!! BUT i  can't seem to get my body to stop swinging anytime anything "hanging" is involved. Even when keeping my core tight? And my hands get slippery on the bars lol. I  keep having to stop at every 3. Any tips?

Kc Herrera

Great stuff! I could even up the weight on some parts.

I can’t decide which day is my favorite anymore 🤯 this had my pats burning, but pulling heavier weight now!

Mads

Make the Pendlay Row a cluster set aka 5 reps, rest 8 seconds, 5 reps, rest 8 seconds, 5 reps, set is complete. Rest 75 seconds and complete next set.

GOAL
Wider back for smaller hips and waist

DETAILS
1. Set resistance. The heavier = the easier. 
2. Arms straight and wide grip. 
3. Externally rotate your shoulder. Think of showing your arm pits.
4. Begin by retracting your shoulder blades back and down.
5. Squeeze the elbows out and think of tucking them into your pockets. 
6. With a proud chest reach the top, lower slow. 
7. Repeat. 

CUES
- Show the Armpits
- Shoulder Blade Retraction & Depression
- Proud Chest

Assisted Pull Ups

GOAL
Wider back for a tighter waist and strong look

DETAILS 
1. You will start by grabbing the wide bar from the top pulley of a pulldown machine and using a wider than shoulder-width pronated (palms down) grip. Step backwards two feet or so.
2. Bend your torso forward at the waist by around 30-degrees with your arms fully extended in front of you and a slight bend at the elbows. If your arms are not fully extended then you need to step a bit more backwards until they are. Once your arms are fully extended and your torso is slightly bent at the waist, tighten the lats and then you are ready to begin.
3. While keeping the arms straight, pull the bar down by contracting the lats until your hands are next to the side of the thighs. Breathe out as you perform this step.
4. While keeping the arms straight, go back to the starting position while breathing in.

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Squeeze Armpits

Straight Arm Pushdown

Superset

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
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

GOAL 
Upper back demolition without any lower back stress

DETAILS
1. On the edge of a bench or couch, have dumbbells in each hand.
2. Scoot to the edge of the seat, lower chest towards knees, let weight rest underneath knees.
3. Slightly retract your shoulder blades. Begin the rep by squeezing back with your shoulder blades.
4. Squeeze the elbows away from your body, keeping the chest over the knees.
5. Mind muscle connect by squeezing in between the shoulder blades. 

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

Seated Wide Grip Bent Over Rows

Back Pump

GOAL
Strengthen the lower abs for supreme injury prevention, lifting strength and pelvic control #PelvicStrong

DETAILS
1. Don't let yourself swing around. Slow and controlled is the name of the game.
2. Jump up and hold onto to a bar. Retract your shoulders and externally rotate that shit. 
3. Stack your body in a perfectly straight line, abs crunched, butt squeezed, and toes pointed.
4. Begin the rep by lifting the toes up to hip level. 
5. Actively crunch your abs while keeping your hips under your shoulders, don't let the hips tuck back behind your body. 
6. On the descent, control the negative and pray to the ab Gods to power you through at least 10 reps. 

CUES
- Feet Together
- Control Descent
- Exhale on Crunch
- Hips In Line With Body
- Crunch Belly Button In

Hanging Leg Raise

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
Carve those v-lines in babyyy

DETAILS
1. Standing tall, hold the end of a barbell in both hands at chest height, and keep your arms straight.
2. Brace your core as you slowly move your arms to the left or right, toward your hips.

CUES
- Crunch Abs into Spine
- Proud Chest
- Move from Core

Standard, Brutal Leg Day

Great except push-ups are hard on the hands.

Great workout unfortunately I couldn't do the spider curls because the benches of my gym are really high and it's uncomfortable. So I just did regular curls.

Couldn’t get the best out of the spider curls - it killed me for the last cardio part
