Description: 5/7 Full Body

Loved the core set! Super duper challenging and will be returning to it to get better at them.
The 5R of any exercise always so misleading. Head says “oh 5R? I can do that” once in it, muscles say “😩 why so hard?!”
😂 but love me a muscle/brain challenge any day 💪

Probably my least favorite workout to date. It felt awkward… super difficult even with modifications. But I have to admit..I am exhausted. I came. I did it. And still happy. Not always going to love every workout.

5/7 Training Day Overview

Rep Count: 5R
Tempo: steady 
Modification: dumbbell Z press

Set Up: 
- grip the barbell with a pronated grip, shoulder width apart. 
- rotate the bar so your palms are facing up and position the barbell across your front delts/high chest
- make sure your elbows are pointing forward 
- get down onto the ground in a seated position [legs straight forward, spread] 
*being in a seated position on the floor is going to require more mobility and core control just to keep your torso upright. Be sure to have warmed up appropriately. 
- keep your spine neutral and think “ribs down” to lock in a strong brace. 

Execution: 
- extend your arms and press the barbell overhead
- move your head directly under the barbell at the top of the rep 
- lower the barbell back to your high chest/front delts with control. 
- use your lats to support your arms and shoulders in the overhead position. 
- keep your torso upright with chest facing forward.

Tempo: iso hold
Modification: dumbbell z press iso hold

Set Up: 
- grip the barbell with a pronated grip, shoulder width apart. 
- rotate the bar so your palms are facing up and position the barbell across your front delts/high chest
- make sure your elbows are pointing forward 
- get down onto the ground in a seated position [legs straight forward, spread] 
*being in a seated position on the floor is going to require more mobility and core control just to keep your torso upright. Be sure to have warmed up appropriately.

Modification: plank walkout 

Set Up: 
- load the barbell with rubber plates that will give you the ability to roll the barbell back and forth
- get down into a kneeling position and grip the barbell slightly wider than shoulder width.

- keep a stiff trunk, create full body tension. 

Execution: 
- with a slight bend in the elbows (slight) slowly roll the barbell out, away from your body
- roll the barbell out only so far that you still feel in control of the movement, and your lats feel fully stretched but still engaged. 
- the goal is to keep a neutral spine as you roll the barbell out. Think about engaging the glutes and tucking your pelvis up (posterior pelvic tilt). 
- your body should be a straight line once you are fully extended, hips should be in line with the spine/torso (pretend you have no butt). 
- keeping arms locked in place, use your core to drive the movement and pull the barbell back in, towards your body. 
- round your back slightly at the top of each rep and contract the core and lats together, each time 
- use a plank walkout to modify this movement
