LOVED today. It was really friggin cool to feel the different muscles working between bench and the work that focused on our inner pecs. I don’t know that I’ve ever felt that difference as much as I did today. Proves that I’m doing the work and it’s working.

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 (work up to 3 rep max)

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 (Add a Pause)

GOAL
Dumbbell press with rotation 

1. With back on bench, get a proud chest and lock in the dumbbells with elbows at 45 degrees from your body.
2. With an underhand position, begin to press the dumbbells overhead while rotating your shoulders internally. 
3. After a second pause at the top, begin to lower the dumbbells to the original position by rotating the palms of your hands towards you. 
4. Lower slow, pause and press to repeat. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Strong Press 
- Slow Negative

Incline Bench Arnold Press

GOAL
Great inner pec work

DETAILS
1. Place a dumbbell at bottom of decline bench. 
2. Mount machine, carefully lol.
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. Slightly bend elbows, lower the weight slowly in an arc behind your head. 
5. Bring the dumbbell back to the starting position by squeezing your chest 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 Chest Squeeze 
- Proud Chest
- Slightly Bend Elbows

Decline Pull Over

Inner Pec Pump

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

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

Superset

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
