Andréia

Bianca

Taking a different approach to this challenge. We have upper, lower, upper + full body! 

It’ll be good overall volume. If you want more abs and arms, work, grab an ab and arm workout from the app. 

Let’s get it, take your time squeeze your muscle and zone in on the jog 💪🏼 Aim for speed 6.0

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
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
Build invaluable power, conditioning and hip strength 

1. Hip-width stance, begin with kettlebell in hands. 
2. Begin by pushing the hips back and start the upward swing by aggressively squeezeing your butt.
3. Stabilize the line of swing and aim for shoulder height.
4. Keep the arms slightly relaxed and let bell swing down, keeping the weight as close to your groin as possible.
5. Hinge the chest forward and repeat movement. 
6. Hips descend back and down, but above the knees

CUES
- Flat Back
- Brace Abs 
- Proud Chest

Kettlebell Swing

Shoulder Stability

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
Shoulder stability + builder 

DETAILS 
1. Sit, shoulders back, proud chest. 
2. Elbows slightly in front of body, squeeze shoulder blades.
3. Press up. 
4. SLOW the way down. Control and make a 90 degree angle. 
5. Press again. 

Pro-tip: keep forearms vertical. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Look Up
- Slow + Controlled

Dumbbell Shoulder Press

12 Min AMRAP

GOAL
Dumbbell press with rotation 

1. With back on bench, get a proud chest and lock in the dumbbells with elbows at 45 degrees from your body.
2. With an underhand position, begin to press the dumbbells overhead while rotating your shoulders internally. 
3. After a second pause at the top, begin to lower the dumbbells to the original position by rotating the palms of your hands towards you. 
4. Lower slow, pause and press to repeat. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Strong Press 
- Slow Negative

Incline Bench Arnold Press

GOAL
Build up your pressing strength through proper positioning and high volume

DETAILS
1. Set hands right outside of shoulders on the dumbbell rack, couch or bench. 
2. Get in a tight plank position. No sagging your stomach or arching your lower back excessively.
2. Feet together, butt squeezed, ribs tucked and as you descend down into the push up squeeze your shoulder blades back. 
3. At the top of the rep, push away with your shoulder blades to get more movement in your serratus/scapula. 

Pro-Tip: #1 mistake is your elbow position. If your elbows track out, that's a no no. If you lose the Right Triangle in your elbow that's a no no. 

If that happens, it's because you're pressing "too high." Step closer to the bar or bench and touch the bar to below your sports bra with the elbows close to your rib cage. 

CUES
- Plank Position
- Squeeze the Shoulder Blades Back
- Right Triangle
- Bar/Bench Below Nips

Incline Push Ups

GOAL
The holy grail of rowing. It focuses on scapula retraction and spinal extension #BangForYourBuck

DETAILS

1. With the opposing knee and hand resting on a bench, let the dumbbell fall directly below that boulder shoulder of yours. 
2. Stiffen/extend your spine. Rounding of the spine inhibits proper shoulder blade retraction/depression.
3. Square up your shoulders.
4. Initiate the first inch of the movement by squeezing/depressing your armpit. Think of "crunching" your armpit to your hip. 
4. Pull elbow to hip, think like you're starting a lawnmower like the little badass you are.
4.When pulling, keep the right triangle bend in your elbow. 

Pro-Tip: Dumbbell moves in an arc or "C" shape from below shoulder to front of hip.

CUES
- Initiate with Scapula 
- Chest is Squared Up
- Flat Back

Dumbbell Lat Row

Superset

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

Dumbbell Lateral Raises

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

Non-stop. Ultimate blood flow to abs for that 6-pack abs.

GOAL
6-pack body weight edition, just make sure to crunch your abs and not sit up with your neck #ProTips

DETAILS
1. Lay on your back with your knees bent.
2. Begin my crunching your abs into your spine with your wrists dragging up your quads.
3. Crunch up to raise your wrists up to the knees.
4. Move slow and work from the abs not momentum.

Wrist to Knees

GOAL
Lower ab shredder - lift with the abs, not the hips 

DETAILS
1. Lay with your legs straight up, point your toes like a ballerina and glue your lower back to the floor.
2. Keeping your arms straight by your sides, or under your hips, slowly lower your legs to the floor until your lower back begins to arch. 
3. Mind muscle connect to your abs and crunch your abs to return to the starting position.

I really appreciate you taking the time to share all of this with us. It really shows how much passion you have & how much you care about us. I’ve resonated A LOT with the struggles & solutions you’ve shared over time since I’ve joined your app when it launched. All of the things you share about spirituality & alignment is so real and it’s so nice to know I’m not alone in that. A lot of people around me it’s kinda like in one ear & out the other. Makes me feel seen that you share similar valuess. So glad you’d been regaining your health back’

a full rant…

Doing this with the New taylor's album was SO GOOD.
Had so much anger and it allowed me to lift heavier

Repeating the week because I couldn’t finish it last week, but I tried to do it with higher weight 🤌
