Before starting your program I never knew how to workout my back/shoulders. Now I’m realizing how beneficial it is! I’m so much stronger and starting this week I’m finally able to do push-ups (which is HUGE for me!!!).

7. Repeat as needed. It’s a bit of a ‘worm’ movement.
 CUES

- Right Triangle 
- Exhale on the Press

Worm Push Ups

Load the triceps and work shoulder blade protraction with minimal equipment 

1. With a bench or couch behind you, have hands at shoulder width, with finger tips away from your body.
2. The legs will be extended forward on top of the other bench. 
3. Slowly lower your body into the right triangle with shoulder blades retracted. 
4. Using your triceps to bring your torso up again. 
5. Create space between your shoulders and ears at the top of the movement. 
6. Repeat.

4. Return to original position.
5. Repeat.

Warmup

Tricep incinerator and front delt crusher 

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 close to yourbody 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 tricep.  
7. Wrist is directly over elbow. And wrist is neutral. 

CUES

Close Grip Dumbbell Bench

GOAL
Strong scapular function and upper back

DETAILS
1. Stand tall with a dumbbell on each hand (palms facing your torso), arms extended on the sides.
2. Lift the dumbbells by elevating the shoulders as high as possible while you exhale. Hold the contraction at the top for a second. Tip: The arms should remain extended at all times. Refrain from using the biceps to help lift the dumbbells. Only the shoulders should be moving up and down.
3. Lower the dumbbells back to the original position.
4. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

CUES - Squeeze Shoulders up to Ears
- Mind Muscle Connect

Dumbbell Shrugs

Superset

GOAL
Controlled overloaded chest stretch to tighten boobs and decrease armpit fat 

DETAILS 
1. Raise the dumbbells up like you're pressing them, but stop and hold just before you lock out. This will be your starting position.
2. With a slight bend on your elbows in order to prevent stress at the biceps tendon, lower your arms out at both sides in a wide arc until you feel a stretch on your chest. Breathe in as you perform this portion of the movement. Tip: Keep in mind that throughout the movement, the arms should remain stationary; the movement should only occur at the shoulder joint.
3. Return your arms back to the starting position as you squeeze your chest muscles and breathe out. Tip: Make sure to use the same arc of motion used to lower the weights.
4. Hold for a second at the contracted position and repeat the movement for the prescribed amount of repetitions.

CUES
- Proud Chest 
- Squeeze Chest to Initiate 
- Slightly Bend Elbows

Dumbbell Flys

GOAL 
Build boulder shoulders and that v-taper

DETAILS
1. Lock in dumbbells overhead on an incline bench. 
2. Be sure to keep full control of the dumbbells at all times. Then breathe out and push the dumbbells up with your shoulders.
3. Lock your arms at the top, hold for a second, and then start slowly lowering the weight. Lowering the weights should take about twice as long as raising them.
4. Proud chest and control the movement. 

CUES
- Proud Chest 
- Squeeze from Chest

Incline Dumbbell Press

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
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

Pro-Tip: I recommend doing single arm raises in an alternating fashion. 

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

Alternating Underhand Dumbbell Front Raise

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. Keep one arm extended. Lower slowly on one side, 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.
8. Alternate arms. 

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

Alternating Dumbbell Bench Press

GOAL
Develop that pressing strength aka chest, shoulders, triceps, and abs. Wow yep, abs #AbsinEverything

DETAILS
1. Keep a straight line from head to toe, abs tight and knees straight.
2. Gradually bring your chest to the floor, then press the floor away to return to your starting position.
3. Don't drop your neck, you aren't bobbing for apples. You are dominating some good shit. 

Pro-Tip: Elbow mechanics is key, keep them either close to the ribs or a few inches away from your ribs. 

CUES
- Plank Position
- Elbows Go Back
- Feet Together
- Elbow 45 degrees Away from Body

Push Up
