Kelly

The goal here is to add more weight each week to the same workouts. 

Aim to work on better positioning and keep to the 3 second eccentric tempo to really maximize gains.

GOAL
Pump those legs with a compound move

DETAILS
1. Feet under hips
2. Show that chest off with your chest up and ribs tucked
3. Knees slightly out. 
4. Squat with weight in heels. Feels like a mix between a deadlift and squat
5. Lower until weights touch the ground if you have big enough plates. If not, go mid shin. 

Pro tip: Don't stand up fully at the top so you keep constant tension on your quad.

CUES
- Up, Down
- Breathe
- Knees Push Slightly Out
- Weight on Heels
- Flat Back

Trap Bar Deadlift

GOAL
You're only as good as your weakest arm. Unilateral pressing to develop strong pecs, shoulders, and triceps 

DETAILS
1. Start sitting upright on a bench. Dumbbell on each knee with a 90 degree elbow.
2. Use your knee to hike the weights up to your chest height as you lay back on the bench. 
3. Immediately press out of the first rep, that may be the trickiest part.
4. Elbows are 45 degrees angle your body and you got that right triangle in yo elbow. 
5. Control the weight as it descends. Lower elbows to parallel or just below for happy shoulders and strength building.
6. As you're pressing up, squeeze the chest.  
7. Wrist is directly over elbow. And wrist is neutral. 

CUES
- Heels Grounded
- Elbows Just to Parallel
- Shoulder Blades Back and Down
- Wrists Neutral

Dumbbell Bench Press

Pull Power

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
Leg pump with wide steps (not longer but wide like a squat)

DETAILS
1. Stand tall shoulders back with dumbbells in hand. 
2. Step one leg forward kinda out width wise. 
3. Lower down slowly keeping chest up and sending hip back slightly. 
4. Lower to where back knees almost touches. 
5. Shin of front leg remains relatively vertical. 
6. Push off front leg to stand with feet together. 
7. Repeat. Reps are total. 

CUES
- Tall Chest 
- Step Wide
- Slow + Controlled

Walking Lunges with DB

Joints Loaded

GOAL
Abs…washboard. Pretty much the works

DETAILS
1. Keep your hands underneath your shoulders, locking the knees and squeezing your glutes.
2. Keep your lower back flat by pulling your belly button into your spine and squeezing your abs.
 CUES
- Crunch Abs into Spine
- Squeeze Azz

High Plank

GOAL
Lower ab and 6-pack developer.

DETAILS
1. Lay with your legs straight out in front of you.
2. As you raise your legs, reach your fingers toward the ceiling to pull your upper body off the floor.
3. Slowly lower yourself back and try not to use momentum.

CUES
- Crunch Belly Button into Spine
- Point Toes 
- Exhale on the Up

V-Ups

Core Work

GOAL
Isolate the front deltoid and build those babies to have density to create a rounded, sculpted look 

DETAILS

1. Start with the dumbbells at the hip and raise to eye level. 
2. Keep shoulder blades retracted with a proud chest. 
3. Slow and controlled. Really think about flexing the shoulder and not overpowering with the pec or trap. #Contract

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Don't Shrug Up
- Breathe
- Grunt

Dumbbell Front Raises

GOAL
Pull back to strengthen your retraction muscles aka traps, rear delts, erectors

DETAILS
1. Cable band is set to right at shoulder height.
2. Retract scapulas back by pulling with your elbows. 
3. At the end of the rep, your wrists are slightly above your elbows. It's almost a half scarecrow position or like a "Put your hands up" type position.
4. Control the negative and return to the start keeping your shoulder blades retracted. 

Side note: This is a very weak position and harder than just a typical row so don't be afraid to go lighter and more for blood flow.

CUES
- Retract & Depress Shoulder Blades
- Wrists above Elbows
- Proud Chest

Face Pulls

Super hyped to have found you and your programs. I’ve been wanting to start a guided program outside of CrossFit classes, but had yet to come across something geared towards non-binary AFAB friends. Loving the focus on mindfulness and authenticity. Excited to start with health is wealth and move into the Fighter program!

Taylor

I love this. I didn't actually register for the challenge but I am going to do the workouts! Last year was very mentally draining and I am finally getting back on track and you sharing this really makes it that much better knowing some of us are not alone. Thanks for being an awesome coach and sharing your knowledge with us!

💧💧I don't think i've ever sweat this much in my life! Loved it! Took a bit of improvising. My gym doesn't have all the machines. But the Facebook Community really helped me out! Thanks a lot all! 🙏🏻

Thought this was going to be an "easy day." I was soooo wrong.
