Two of the exercises were the same? What’s the difference between the two lateral arm raises?

The decline barbell set was tuff but I enjoyed the workout over all. I’m finally getting to the point where I’m not excruciatingly sore every time I come to the gym, and I’m also starting to see some definition in my shoulders. ☺️

Tonight was an extremely challenging day at work and it felt awesome to workout a bit at night. I might start working out at night on the week-end but early in the week

I liked the mix up of incline and decline chest work. I’ll be feeling this one in the next couple of days.🔥🔥🔥

Stephanie

Ouch 😣 I’m still a little nervous about the actual barbell decline bench by myself. My gym is always packed. I used the decline ab bench and curl bar for now. I’m building that confidence back up day by day

Posting here for accountability: Had to modify to do the at home version (with sandbags, weight plates, and bands) because the gym at my apartment complex was slammed (none of the equipment I needed was available and I didn't want to stand around waiting), also I didn't wanna waste my pre-work out. It was great pump!

Bench day! Go light on the shoulders raises to make sure you're not swinging. Nice and slow, get the blood pumping to the mucles. You should feel the burn on that shoulder builder.

GOAL
Increase coordination, flush lymph, strengthen your fast twitch muscle fibers, and increase speed #SoAthletic

1. Feet together.
2. Grab rope with wrists slightly in front of hips.
3. Thumbs face away from the body, shoulders are relaxed, and chin is neutral.
4. Hop low and quickly on your toes will whipping the rope with your wrists. 
5. Let the rope rotate around your body and jump as the wrists slap down.

Pro-Tip: The more relaxed you are, the longer you can keep your natural rhythm.
Pro-Tip II: Drop the rope. Jump low and fast and slap your hands on the front of your thighs. Double tap them to practice double unders. This simulates the timing and coronation needed to jump rope. After warming up with this, carry the same rhythm but just add the rope.

2. Using a medium width grip, lift the bar from the rack and hold it straight over you with your arms locked. The arms should be perpendicular to the floor. This will be your starting position. Tip: In order to protect your rotator cuff, it is best if you have a spotter help you lift the barbell off the rack.
3. As you breathe in, come down slowly until you feel the bar on your lower chest.
4. After a second pause, bring the bar back to the starting position as you breathe out and push the bar using your chest muscles.

Bent Arm Lateral Raise

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
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.

Tricep Thrasher

W1/D4 Hulk Push Day 😝

Branching out with your programs. On the recovery from an ACL surgery last May. Was in tip top shape with your Fighter program prior to injury.  Put on 30 pounds while down. I’m an avid cyclist. Never been over 130-135. Sitting at a nice 163 now, trimming inches. Feels good. The number doesn’t matter anymore. Seeing progress. Any tips are appreciated.

I’m so excited to get started! Right program, right time. I need this!
