Great mix of movements. I know it says kg, but I entered weight as if it was lbs, opps! 
Love that the app keeps record of rep count and weight.

Warm Up

GOAL
Loading the hips and legs while maintaining and more upright chest for less back strain and more glute focus
 1. Begin with a bar loaded on the ground. The feet should be set very wide, near the collars. Bend at the hips to grip the bar. The arms should be directly below the shoulders, inside the legs, and you can use a pronated grip, a mixed grip, or hook grip. Relax the shoulders, which in effect lengthens your arms.
2. Take a breath, and then lower your hips, looking forward with your head with your chest up. Drive through the floor, spreading your feet apart, with your weight on the back half of your feet. Extend through the hips and knees.
3. As the bar passes through the knees, lean back and drive the hips into the bar, pulling your shoulder blades together.
4. Return the weight to the ground by bending at the hips and controlling the weight on the way down

CUES
- Spread the Earth with Your Feet
- Squeeze Glutes
- Retract Spine
- Brace Abs

Sumo Deadlift

GOAL
Even out those hips and challenge your posterior chain #gains

DETAILS
1. Stand tall, with a dumbbell in each hand.
2. To start, place one foot backward so that the ball of your foot is in line with your heel.
3. Raise the rear heel and try to feel most of your weight on the front foot.
4. Keep even pressure through your front foot, and reach your hips backward, letting the front knee slightly bend as your hips go back and the dumbbells moves toward the floor.

CUES
- Flat Back
- Brace Abs
- Squeeze Armpits

Dumbbell Staggered Stance Deadlift

GOAL
Ultimate glute builder without loading the spine 

DETAILS
1. Begin seated on the ground with a bench directly behind you. Have a loaded barbell over your legs. Having a pad on the bar can greatly reduce the discomfort caused by this exercise.
2. Roll the bar so that it is directly above your hips, and lean back against the bench so that your shoulder blades are near the top of it.
3. Begin the movement by squeezing your butt. 
4. Push through your heels and tuck your pelvis. Focus more on glute activation and tucking the pelvis rather than how high you can push the bar. 
5. Slowly lower by pushing the hips down and repeat. 

CUES
- Initiate from Glutes
- Tuck Pelvis

Barbell Glute Bridge

Power Triple Set

GOAL
Hammer those hamstrings + test your joint alignment with maximal coordination needed 

DETAILS
1. Set a Landmine bar up.
2. Place a 4 inch box underneath to shorten range. 
3. Grab the end. 
4. Hinge at hip with knee slightly bent. 
5. Lower slightly leaning into the weight. 
6. Stand and squeeze. 
7. Reps are per leg. 

Pro-Tip: do single leg rdl with a barbell if you don’t have a Landmine. 

CUES
- Hips Back
- Flat Back

Landmine Single Leg RDL

GOAL
Puts more focus on hamstring and glute, loads your hip joint, and works your shitty coordination and balance #AlsoBooty

DETAILS
1. Stance is hip width apart and your back is turned towards a bench.
2. Reach your back leg on the bench. With the back toe face down, jump the front leg a good distance ahead of you, almost as far as you can reach.
3. Begin by pushing the hips back and down
4. Knee is slightly behind ankle and chest is upright.
5. Knee pushes out. It is not inside your ankle/hip. No knee problems on my watch, only booty buildin.
6. Ascend up with an upright chest and tucked ribs.

CUES
- Step Far Forward for Booty
- Hips Back
- Chest Over Knee
- Knee Out
- Step Closer for Quads
- Feet Shoulder Width Apart

Dumbbell Bulgarian Split Squat

3x10 Legz

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
Athletic advantage, injury prevention and oblique shredder

DETAILS
1. Set up a cable to the lowest height [note you can also set to shoulder height or above for other angles]. 
2. Grab the end with both arms extended. 
3. Start with shoulders, hips, and feet square/straight forward. 
4. Rotate the torso away from the anchor point, keeping the hips square. 
5. Then, chop that wood by rotating torso towards your hip and slightly towards the ground.
6. Squeeze abs & exhale. Return slowly to start position. Repeat. 

Pro-Tips: Ribs are tucked and you compress/crunch your abs a little. Back foot pivots as you chop. Hips can rotate or stay stationary, whichever gives you a better ab squeeze. 

CUES
- Squeeze Butt
- Rotate Torso
- Tuck Ribs
- Crunch Ribs to Hip Slightly
- Straight Arms Whole Time

Wood Chop

Ab Builder

GOAL
Pre-pump your external rotators to strengthen your hips and knees 

DETAILS
1. Place a band slightly above your knees, standing tall and starting with your feet about hip width.
2. On your toes, push your knees out and lower down about 2 inches.
3. Chest is up and step to the side. 
4. Do about 15-20 steps one direction, then 15-20 the other. 
5. Do not lean, or step so far that your knee falls inward and maintain tension through the band the entire time.

CUES
- Squeeze from Glutes
- Knees Out
- Stay 2 Inches Bent

Lateral Band Walk

GOAL
Anti-cankle life - I got thick ankles so I need to do extra. 

DETAILS
1. Sit tall with appropriate weight.
2. Hang heels on edge of platform. 
3. Begin by fully stretching the heel down.
4. Pause. Squeeze calves up to raise on tippy toes. 
5. Slowly lower to full stretch. Repeat. 
6. Do pulse reps to hit failure. 

CUES
- Full Stretch
- Exhale on Up

Seated Calf Raise

GOAL
Increase coordination, flush lymph, strengthen your fast twitch muscle fibers, and increase speed #SoAthletic

DETAILS
1. Feet together.
2. Grab rope with wrists slightly in front of hips.
3. Thumbs face away from the body, shoulders are relaxed, and chin is neutral.
4. Hop low and quickly on your toes will whipping the rope with your wrists. 
5. Let the rope rotate around your body and jump as the wrists slap down.

Pro-Tip: The more relaxed you are, the longer you can keep your natural rhythm.
Pro-Tip II: Drop the rope. Jump low and fast and slap your hands on the front of your thighs. Double tap them to practice double unders. This simulates the timing and coronation needed to jump rope. After warming up with this, carry the same rhythm but just add the rope. 

CUES
- Hips In Place
- Posture is Upright AF
-Ribs Tucked
