Salsa

For pendlay row, do two warm up sets at 10 reps. Then find your 12-15RM at 10 RPE in as little of sets as possible. 

For example - 10 reps at 45lbs, 10 reps at 65lbs and then 12-15 rep max at 85lbs.

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

Rope Straight Arm Pushdown

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

Lat Pump

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 
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.

3. Contract the shoulder blades together and squeeze to full range to extend the weight. 
4. Fly away birdy. Slow and controlled.
Pro-Tip: Don't relax your chest if you have a support, think of resisting the pad or your knees and pulling everything back to tighten your erectors, scaps, and mid back up. 

CUES

- Pinch Shoulders Back & Down
- Chest Angled Up

Bent Over Rear Delt Flys

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

DETAILS

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.
