GOAL
Thicker back & improved posture 

1. Grab the close grip bar.
2. Begin by squeezing your shoulder blades back.
3. Slightly lean back. 
4. Pull down the attachment with a proud chest and elbows squeezing down towards the hips. 
5. Keep a proud chest and squeeze at the bottom. Do not round your shoulder blades and pull with your arms.
6. Release slowly and repeat. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Initiate with Shoulder Blades

Close Grip Pulldown (last set drop set 6+8)

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

Superset 1

GOAL 
Upper back squeeze - ignore the lower back thickness, that shit only goes away for a photoshoot cut lol

DETAILS
1. Wide grip bar on cable.
2. Stiffen legs and arch spine.
3. Sternum up towards ceiling 
4. Begin by squeezing elbows back towards your spine.
5. Squeeze hard and lower slowly.

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Right Triangle

Cable Wide Grip Row (drop sets 10+10)

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

GOAL
Focus on targeting that brachialis to contribute to arm thickness more so than just your biceps #SecretSauce

DETAILS
1. Begin the rep with a neutral/hammer grip and fully stretched arm. 
2. Elbow should be slightly in front of your hip, putting more stress on the bicep. 
3. Contract your bicep to raise the weight to your elbow. Curl slowly and focus on the squeeze. Relax the shoulder and just squeeze blood into your bicep.

Pro-Tip: Elbows don't flale, chest isn't overly activated, and you aren't rotating the weight at all. Straight up, straight down. 

CUES
- Elbows Close to Body
- Relax the Chest
- Shoulder Blades Pinned
- Squeeze at the Top

Hammer Curls

GOAL
Boulder shoulders

DETAILS
1. Set a smith machine to just below hips.
2. Unrack with hands wider than shoulder width.
3. Stand tall and soften the knees slightly.
4. Brace abs. 
5. Squeeze traps up towards ears.
6. Keep elbows locked out straight and do not bend/rebend knees. 
7. Squeeze hard at the top and lower. Repeat. 

CUES 
- Push Stomach Out
- Wider Grip
- Squeeze Up to Ears
- Don’t Jut Neck Forward

Smith Machine Shrugs

Superset 2

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
Isolate that elbow for bicep life 

DETAILS
1. Begin the rep with a supine and fully stretched arm. 
2. Elbow should be slightly in front of your hip, putting more stress on the bicep. 
3. Contract your bicep to raise the weight to your elbow. Curl slowly and focus on the squeeze. Relax the shoulder and just squeeze blood into your bicep.
4. Keep your chest proud. 

CUES
- Elbows Push Forward
- Relax the Chest
- Shoulder Blades Pinned Back and Done 
- Squeeze at the Top

EZ Bar Cable Curl (drop sets 12+8)

Superset 3

1. Wrap your hands and wear 14-16 oz boxing gloves. 
2. Freestyle box on a heavy bag.
3. Use your footwork and head movement to simulate dodging punches.
4. Work on hip connection to bag, neutral wrist, and speed.
