Leg extensions

Note: Try to constantly have weight coming through the toes/ball of your foot on the way down to increase difficulty of the exercise.

Pendulum or hack squats

- Perform walking lunges with a double pulse at the bottom of the lunge.
- Focus on weight slightly leaning forward and slowly lowering on the way down.

Quads Superset

- Start with bar in your hands as opposed to the floor.
- Slowly lower the weight with a slight bend in your knees, bending at the hips and keeping your back straight.
- Lower weight until you feel a slight stretch in your hamstrings.
- Drive your hips forward and use your hamstrings to power back to standing.

Note: Keep the bar closer to your legs to emphasise the stretch in the hamstrings and eliminate discomfort in your lower back.

Barbell RDL

- Sit in a hamstring curl machine adjusted to you.
- Curl the weight with your hamstrings slow and controlled.
- Pause at the bottom.

Most intense back workout I’ve had 
I love it. I personally love back workouts and really want my lats to pop out

Lower Back

The first exercise really helped warm up my shoulders. I definitely enjoyed this workout and looking forward to bribing my shoulders as they are my weakest and slowest to grow lol

Best chest workout I had in awhile. I was able to push myself so hard and really bring up the weight on the dumbbells
