Start the week with this workout. Squat + ab focused 🥵

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

DETAILS

2. Sit back and keep yourself elevated by pushing down onto the pads with your elbow. 
3. Stack your body in a perfectly straight line, abs crunched. 
4. Begin the rep by crunching the abs and bending the knees.
5. Actively crunch your abs and let the knees follow. 
6. On the descent, control the negative and pray to the ab Gods to power you through at least 12 reps. 
7. Keep the knees slightly apart for pelvic control. 

CUES
- Control Descent
- Exhale on Crunch
- Crunch Belly Button In

Bent Knee Roman Chair Raises

Warm Up

GOAL
Compound movement that hits it all

DETAILS

2. Proud chest, with feet shoulder width.
3. Start by reaching the hips back and pushing the knees out.
4. Lower slowly and until the hips break parallel. 
5. Stand by driving the knees into the floor and squeezing your glutes.

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Brace Abs
- Knees Out

Barbell Squat

GOAL
Give it a pause and watch those legs turn to jell-o

DETAILS
1. Get a strong front rack position. 
2. Elbows forward, bar resting on SHOULDERS, with finger tips on bar. 
3. Big big breath in the abs. Push the abs out. 
4. Lower slowly into a squat. 
5. Find the pins set at appropriate height where you’re in a safe bottom of squat.

7. Keep back and core tight. 
8. Drive up with the elbows and legs. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Elbows Up

Pin Front Squat

GOAL
Sculpt those hamstrings without lower back pressure, aka isolation exercise #HamTings

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

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

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

Lying Leg Curls

GOAL
Overload the quads. Modify for wider squat if you experience knee problems or lack the mobility. 

DETAILS 
1. Hold a dumbbell at chest height, 1-2' away from your body.
2. Stand tall, shoulders relaxed and contract your abdominals.
3. To squat down, bend your knees and let your hips follow, maintaining even pressure throughout your foot.
4. Maintain a tall posture the entire time.
5. To stand, think about pressing the floor away.

CUES
- Tall chest
- Knees forward

Dumbbell Cannonball Goblet Squat

Accessory

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

DETAILS

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.

- Hips In Line With Body

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.
