Nice arm pump, abs on fire 🔥 if you use max weight during crunches. Reverse crunches challenge yourself do do more than or the same amount of reps, you'll be surprise what you can accomplish with a end goal in mind 🥵😆👍

Loved the ab burn - I normally never work abs cause I'm lazy.

Sophie

I've never loved working shoulders, but I actually really liked this! It wasn't the usual shoulder press and move on!

Amy Yeary

Abbie

I love Chest & Shoulder days, but the incline walk brings one back to earth really hard🤣😅

Lisa

Chest and shoulder day is my FAVORITE. The programming is always fresh and varied so there’s no getting bored. You leave room for growth for each and every athlete when it comes to weight. 💪🏻

August

Got some company for todays workout and if not for that motivation I wouldn’t have finished🥵🥵

Those reverse crunches hurt my soul today

Brittany

Sophia

I forgot how much I love the bench press! Thanks!

DETAILS
1. Retract your shoulder blades down into the bench and back towards your hips. Barbell can be used for leverage to get into this position. Think of trying to get your shoulders and hips to touch each other.
2. Legs are in a squat stance with your heels firmly planted on the ground. Squeeze the ass a little.
3. Grab the bar with the desired width and wrists neutral. 
4. Big breath and unrack the barbell.
5. Bring the barbell over your nips. 
6. Externally rotate and try to break the bar with your hands to activate your lats.
7. Lower the bar to below your sports bra. This is a very important position you have to nail.
8. Bar is BELOW your sports bra, and your elbows are tightly screwed in at a 45 degree angle.
9. With the bar touching your chest, drive up to finish the rep. Pause is optional.
10. Drive straight up or slightly back towards the rack, whichever feels stronger and more natural. 
11. Finish the rep with straight arms, with shoulder blades still retracted.

Barbell Bench Press

GOAL
Isolate the chest for confident posture and a striated chest

DETAILS
1. Set cables to shoulder height.
2. Begin by taking a lunge stance. 
3. Proud chest, slightly bend elbows, and externally rotate your shoulders.
4. Start with handles touching together and squeeze your chest as hard as possible. 
5. Slowly release and lower back. Keeping elbows slightly bent and the tension in the chest.
6. Squeeze the handles back together. 
7. Don’t overpower with your shoulders. Aka don’t shrug. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Sternum Up
- Externally Rotate
- Squeeze from Your Chest

Cable Chest Flys

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

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

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
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

GOAL
One of my favorite lower ab exercises - use that mind muscle connection to tuck your pelvis and contract the lower abs

1. Lie down on the floor with your legs fully extended and arms to the side of your torso with the palms on the floor. Your arms should be stationary for the entire exercise.
2. Move your legs up so that your thighs are perpendicular to the floor and feet are together and parallel to the floor. This is the starting position.
3. While inhaling, move your legs towards the torso as you roll your pelvis backwards and you raise your hips off the floor. 
4. Hold the contraction for a second and move your legs back to the starting position while exhaling.

CUES
- Crunch Abs into Belly Button 
- Knees Up to Ceiling

Reverse Crunch

Ab Builder

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
