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 (reset each rep)

GOAL
If you have good knees, welcome to a quad cryer. If you don’t, swap for leg extensions #Burner

DETAILS
1. Stand on a raised object. 
2. Toes down, knees push forward. 
3. Stay upright + SQUEEZE from quads. 
4. Slow on negative. 


CUES
- Upright Chest 
- Knees Forward
- Slow Negative

Cannonball Squat

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

Isolation Burner 🥵

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

GOAL
Pre-exhaust those legs before heavy squats and/or build the ‘tear drop’ look without too many tears of pain #JkItHurts

DETAILS
1. Begin in a seated position on the leg extension machine. Knees are just off the edge of the seat.
2. Weight pad is resting above ankles.
3. Use the quadriceps to extend your legs fully as you exhale. 
4. Inhale on the negative and go down slowly if you a real savage. 
5. Pulse reps can be added. 

CUES
- Squeeze from Quads
- Slow Negative
- Hold Hips Down

Leg Extensions

GOAL
Sculpt those hamstrings without lower back pressure, aka isolation exercise #HamTings

DETAILS
1. Tuck your pelvis into the hip pad. 
2. Point your toes like a ballerina. The weight will just feel heavier, you're welcome. If you flex your toes, you tryna lift with your calves...don't do that. 
3. Get in a full length leg stretch then curl the weight by squeezeing from your hamstrings with a controlled negative.
4. Exhale on the curl, inhale on the negative

CUES
- Slow Negative
- Stay Focused 
- Relax the Toes
- Tempo is Life

MODIFICATIONS
One legged - say bye-bye-bye to those imbalances. Add in quarter reps, pulses, and holds for the ultimate life-altering experience.
