For the alternating bench press, do 5 on the left, 5 right, 5 left, 5 right. Set complete.

GOAL 
Tighten your lower chest for confident posture
 
DETAILS 
1. Secure your legs at the end of the decline bench and slowly lay down on the bench.
2. Using a medium width grip, lift the bar from the rack and hold it straight over you with your arms locked. The arms should be perpendicular to the floor. This will be your starting position. Tip: In order to protect your rotator cuff, it is best if you have a spotter help you lift the barbell off the rack.
3. As you breathe in, come down slowly until you feel the bar on your lower chest.
4. After a second pause, bring the bar back to the starting position as you breathe out and push the bar using your chest muscles. Lock your arms and squeeze your chest in the contracted position, hold for a second and then start coming down slowly again. Tip: It should take at least twice as long to go down than to come up). 
 CUES
- Proud Chest
- Right Triangle

Decline Barbell Bench Press

GOAL
You're only as good as your weakest arm. Unilateral pressing to develop strong pecs, shoulders, and triceps 

DETAILS
1. Start sitting upright on a bench. Dumbbell on each knee with a 90 degree elbow.
2. Use your knee to hike the weights up to your chest height as you lay back on the bench. 
3. Immediately press out of the first rep, that may be the trickiest part.
4. Elbows are 45 degrees angle your body and you got that right triangle in yo elbow. 
5. Keep one arm extended. Lower slowly on one side, control the weight as it descends. Lower elbows to parallel or just below for happy shoulders and strength building.
6. As you're pressing up, squeeze the chest.  
7. Wrist is directly over elbow. And wrist is neutral.
8. Alternate arms. 

CUES
- Heels Grounded
-Elbows Just to Parallel
- Shoulder Blades Back and Down
- Wrists Neutral

Alternating Dumbbell Bench Press

GOAL
Burn em brah. This is the optimal exercise for building rounder shoulders to trick people into thinking you have a tinier waist #TrickorTreat

DETAILS
1. Grip can vary. Neutral grip for basic life or internally rotate with the dumbbell slightly in front of your hip to target that rotator cuff (lighter weight).
2. Start at the hip and raise up to the shoulders. The dumbbells should be a few inches in front of your body to move in your scapular plane.
3. Elbows are slightly bent and you're initiating the movement with your shoulders.

Pro-Tip: We're going for blood flow on this. No need to get real heavy, just go lighter and check that ego.

CUES
- Retract Shoulder Blades

- Elevated Sternum 

- Reach Away 

- Tuck Your Ribs

Seated Dumbbell Lateral Raises

GOAL
Get those front shoulders poppin and striated

DETAILS
1. Seated on the edge of a bench or surface, begin with a proud chest.
2. With an underhand grip, raise one dumbbell at a time. 
3. Think of scooping the weight up and keeping the shoulders retracted slightly.
4. Slowly lower and alternate sides.

CUES - Proud Chest
- Slow & Control

Seated Alternating Underhand Front Raise

GOAL
Get some shape to your upper body and improve your shoulder function 

DETAILS
1. Knees are slightly bent, hand grip can vary but usually right inside the shoulder is optimal. 
2. With the weight at your hips, begin pulling by leading with your elbows. Get the elbows up towards your ears and the weight will follow.
3. Keep the weight close to your body. 
4. As you pull, you can shrug up to target the traps as well. 
Pro-Tip: I prefer not wrapping my thumb around the bar aka less internal rotation.

CUES
- Shrug Up 
- Squeeze Up
- Knees Slightly Bent
- Chest Up

Dumbbell Upright Row

The Weekly Shoulder Builder

GOAL
Get the volume of push ups without strict form while taxing the abs and shoulders

1. Lay stomach down on the floor. 
2. Position hands in push up position.
3. Retract shoulder blades and externally rotate.
4. Press up into a plank position by pressing the upper body up first, then following with the lower body.
5. Finish in a perfect plank position by squeezing your butt, feet together and crunching the abs.
6. Slowly lower to the starting position. 
7. Repeat as needed. It’s a bit of a ‘worm’ movement.
 CUES
- Proud Chest
- Right Triangle 
- Exhale on the Press

Worm Push Ups

GOAL 
6-pack time 

DETAILS 
1. Laying your back on a physioball. 
2. With a plate positioned over your shoulders, begin to crunch the abs into the spine.
3. Press the plate into the ceiling.
4. Lower slowly. Repeat.

CUES
- Hollow Rock
- Plate Over Shoulders 
- Crunch Abs into Spine

Plate Sit Ups on Ball

GOAL
Build ab strength relative to your body weight 

1. Start in supine position.
2. Arms extend overhead.
3. Legs extend and press together.
4. Eliminate space below lumbar spine by contracting the abdominals. 
5. Rock in this position minimizing movement at the hip and shoulder.

CUES

- Hollow Rock
