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 
Build some killer obliques with this one. These can help with the "V" that everyone is obsessed with, but can also add a little width to your sides so find the balance you want.

DETAILS
1. Feet are shoulder width apart, posture is perfect and upright. Butt n gut squeezed. 
2. With a dumbbell in one hand. Bend to that side. Pretend you're a lil organic, frosted pastry in a toaster. Don't bend back or forward because your golden skin will get burned. 
3. As you're bending to the side, don't push the hips to the side either. Everything is stationary, just the torso is compressed. You are not wiggling those hips. 
4. Return to starting position and repeat each side.

CUES
- Squeeze Ass
- Don't Get Burned
- Hips In Place
- Posture is Upright AF
- Ribs Tucked

Side Bends

Warm Up

GOAL
Core killer + hip loading for booty 

DETAILS
1. Get in sumo stance with legs, toes straight forward or slightly turned out. 
2. Begin on one side and grab a dumbbell on the other side. 
3. Start the descent by pushing your hips back, knee out. 
4. Chest can come over the knee for balance. 
5. Pause at bottom of squat. 
6. Drive from mid-foot to stand. 
7. Repeat on one side, keeping tempo in check and pushing hips back. 
8. Reps are per side. 

CUES
- Hips Back
- Core Engaged + Stable
- Pause

Dumbbell Lateral Squat

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

Quad Blood Flow 🗡️

GOAL
Hip loading and constant tension for booty gains

DETAILS
1. Rest the smith machine bar slightly below traps. 
2. Get in a lunge position. 
3. Begin lowering by reaching the hips back with a very flat back aka arched back a bit. 
4. Lower the hip to be parallel with knee. 
5. Stand by driving from the heel and keeping the chest over the knee slightly. 

CUES
- Hip Loading
- Chest Over Knee Slightly
- Flat Back

Smith Machine Lunge *Glute Focus*

GOAL
One legged - say bye-bye-bye to those imbalances. Add in quarter reps, pulses, and holds for the ultimate life-altering experience.

DETAILS
1. Tuck your pelvis into the hip pad. 
2. Point your toes like a ballerina. The weight will just feel heavier, you're welcome. If you flex your toes, you tryna lift with your calves...don't do that. 
3. Get in a full length leg stretch then curl the weight by squeezeing from your hamstrings with a controlled negative.
4. Exhale on the curl, inhale on the negative.
5. Do to failure and then flex the toe for more reps. 

CUES
- Slow Negative
- Stay Focused 
- Relax the Toes
- Tempo is Life

Single Leg Hamstring Curl

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

Wood Chop

GOAL
Anti-cankle life - I got thick ankles so I need to do extra. 

DETAILS
1. Stand tall with appropriate weight.
2. Hang heels on edge of platform. 
3. Begin by fully stretching the heel down.
4. Pause. Squeeze calves up to raise on tippy toes. 
5. Slowly lower to full stretch. Repeat. 
6. Do pulse reps to hit failure. 

CUES
- Full Stretch
- Exhale on Up

I’d love some shorter workouts on the fighter feed. I find they always take me longer than the estimated time and finding it hard to fit the whole workout in amongst full time work, looking after dogs etc.
