GOAL
Controlled lat pulldown

DETAILS
1. Full stretch. 
2. Externally rotate aka show your armpits. 
3. Begin by squeezing your elbows down towards hips. 
4. Proud chest. 
5. Slowly release and return to starting position. 
6. Drop set into unilateral reps when you’re tired. 

CUES
- Proud Chest 
- Externally Rotate

ISO-Pulldown

GOAL
Wanna look like Wonder Woman with a wide back down to a small, tapered waist? Pull down more. 

DETAILS
1. Get your sternum facing up towards the ceiling #GirlsGoneToTheGym
2. Grip the bar wide, whatever that means for your arm length. 
3. BEGIN the rep with shoulder blade retraction. 
4. Externally rotate aka show your arm pits.
5. Exhale and pull bar to just below your chest. 
6. When pulling, your elbows should be slightly behind the bar/your spine. 
7. Release and control the negative. Repeat. 
Pro- Tip: As you pull down squeeze those armpits. Also don't let elbows go in front of the bar. 

Why do elbows have so much to do with this shit? Because proper elbow mechanics = proper scapula mechanics. Also, breathe. Exhale on pull, inhale at top. 

CUES
- Pull with the Elbows
- Show the Armpits
- Squeeze the Pits
- Shoulder Blades Back and Down
- Proud Chest

Wide Grip Lat Pulldown

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

Wider back

GOAL
Chest supported row to thicken your back and get a back that slaps  

DETAILS
1. Arch that back, get a proud chest, pin those shoulder blades back and down towards your hips aka don't shrug up.
2. Resist the weight as it pulls your upper body forward. Resisting force = actively flexing your muscles = muscle growth.
3. With arms fully stretched, begin the row by squeezing back with the shoulder blades and squeeze at the top for an added flex. 
4. Right triangle elbow.
5. Exhale and resist the negative. Repeat. 

CUES
- Pinch The Penny in Between Shoulder Blades Back 
- Right Triangle
- Resist the Chest Pad
- Neutral Neck

T-Bar Row

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

Upper Back

GOAL
This is the flour to the cupcake, the butter to the donut, the sole to your Nikes, the string to your Yo-Yo, the milk to your cereal. Best introduction to rowing/learning to squeeze the shit out of your back.

DETAILS
1. Start with on a Smith Machine or TRX cables set at around chest height, lower if you're a lil badass. 
2. Walk your feet in front of the bar while holding onto the bar. Woooo feels like your going to fall back on your ass but since your upper body is rock solid, you gucci. 
3. Initiate by squeezing back with the shoulder blades.
4. Pull just below your sports bra, and keep the right triangle in your elbow. If any of that dish is off, you probably have to lower that bar or walk your feet in. 

CUES

- Squeeze Back With Shoulder Blades
- Chest up
- Flat Back
- Tuck the Ribs
- Don't Sag
- Plank Position

Overhand Inverted Rows

GOAL
Low impact fat burner 

DETAILS
1. Set treadmill to a 8-12 incline and a 2.5-3.5 mph. 
2. Begin by walking with a talk chest. 
3. Don’t hold onto the handles. 

CUES
- Exhale 
- Watch Some YouTube

It was great. Having the video guides makes a huge difference

Charlie

Back / Upper Body Pull 👊

Back Builder ⛰

One exercise was repeated through this sequence. Overall makes the exercise way too repetitive and boring. Didn’t feel the back burn I was looking for.

Fucking love your workouts 
It’s muscle paradise

Maybe it’s just me dealing with a crowded gym all the time. But I love doing supersets. But only if it’s on the same machine. Or it’s a machine and a dumbbell. If it’s 2 different machines, it’s hard to hold it down

Melina

Back Blast 😝

Back Attack! 😈

It was great! I’ve been missing out on working on those last and today I really did feel them :) it felt so satisfying.

It's always a good day when you get in a MoMo Back Day. 10/10.

Again … challenging and new movements. I like the variety

Megan

First workout DONE! Thankyou! Videos + explanations are great 😃💪🏻

Redgie

If the gym don’t have that certain equipment what alternative we could replace it with.

Dannelle

Definitely made me feel something I haven’t in a while. And I was surprised by how much I could do given I haven’t worked our consistently in a while

Back Day (upper back thickness) 😎

Found it a bit tricky to get my form right for the superset but will practice it until I get it right. Killer back workout 😎🤙🏽
