I had to swap the sprints with interval rowing on highest resistance. I hope that’s alright.

- E1: Sprints 5x20s

GOAL
Scapular depression aka lat work for a wider back and narrow waist 

DETAILS
1. Place a dumbbell standing up on a flat bench.
2. Lie perpendicular to the bench (torso across it as in forming a cross) with only your shoulders lying on the surface.
3. Grasp the dumbbell with both hands and hold it straight over your chest at arms length. Both palms should be pressing against the underside one of the sides of the dumbbell. This will be your starting position, make sure the weight is secure.
4. While keeping your arms straight, lower the weight slowly in an arc behind your head while breathing in until you feel a stretch on the armpit.
5. At that point, bring the dumbbell back to the starting position by depressing your shoulder blades, using the arc through which the weight was lowered and exhale as you perform this movement.
6. Hold the weight on the initial position for a second and repeat the movement. 

CUES
- Initiate with Scapula 
- Squeeze Your Butt
- Slightly Bend Elbows

Dumbbell Pull Overs

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

Superset A

GOAL 
Upper back demolition without any lower back stress

DETAILS
1. Set bench to 45 degree incline. 
2. Waddle over it with two DBs.
3. Slightly retract your shoulder blades. Begin the rep by squeezing back with your shoulder blades.
4. Squeeze the elbows back towards your belly button and pull your chest up to nearly upright.
5. Stop once your elbow is bent at 90 degrees and at your ribs, then slowly lower the dumbbell back.
6. Try to squeeze your shoulder blades at the top of each row.

CUES - Proud Chest
- Elbows to Belly Button 
- Initiate with Shoulder Blades

Seal Rows

GOAL
Use gravity and eliminate momentum to blast those muscle fibers to shreds #Shredz

DETAILS
1. Grab those dumbbells in each hand, lay chest forward on an incline bench and scoot up to where you get a good strong position at the top. 
2. While straddling the bench, let the weight pull your arms to a dead hang. 
3. Begin to curl the weight up, only hinging at the elbow.
4. Use your spidey focus to keep the elbow directly below the shoulder and not letting that fucker creep back. Don't shorten the range by pushing the elbow back behind your shoulder. 
5. Now squeeze that ish.

Beware: Beware of web-like material squirting out of your wrists after these curls. So worth it. 

CUES
- Squeeze
- Stationary Elbow
- Elbow Directly Below Shoulder
- Control That Negative

Spider Curls

Superset B

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
This move will elevate every shirt you own. Making those arms irresistible to every human with eyes.

DETAILS
1. Grab a dumbbell in one hand. 
2. Stand tall, ribs tucked. Pretend your elbow is glued just outside your ribcage
3. Actively curl the weight across the chest, keeping the Right Triangle in your elbow. 
4. Think to push the weight back down with your tricep.
5. Repeat. Each rep squeeze that bicep like you're making lemonade. 

CUES
- Elbow Pinned to Rib
- Squeeze That Lemon
- Control Descent
- Wrist Neutral

Across the Chest Curls

GOAL
Calorie burner 

DETAILS
1. Either run on a hill, outside or on the treadmill.
2. Work on figure 4 form.
3. 90-degree bend in elbows.
4. Land on the balls of your feet. 
5. Avoid heel striking.

CUES
- Hand Goes from Face Cheek to Butt Cheek
- Pull the Heel to Butt
- Hamstring Curl Not Quad Extension
