Progressive Overload:
This exercise:
Up 5lb from last workout and added 1 more rep to each set.
You say, but 5lb is not very much. If I jump 20lb I will:
-be too sore to train tomorrow
-have nothing to progress to next workout
More isn’t always better😉Slow and steady wins the race.
Upper Glutes
This is one of my favorites right now. You might wonder why I’m on a bench and not just laying on the ground. I like the extra stretch I get on the glutes.
More stretch = more muscle fiber recruitment
Safety Squat Bar
I am in love with this bar😍
Front squats with a barbell are so difficult for me when I get some real weight on it.
Why I love it and how to use it:
Why
*comfortable positioning
*able to load more weight
*feels better on my back
*can isolate those quads better
How
*Stand up right and let the bar balance on your traps
*Do not for the handles up or down during the movement
*apply all your techniques for a bar bell squat. 1. Foot balance 2. Knees pressing out 3. Brace core 4. Drive up thru entire upper back
If you are looking to isolate your quads but still don’t feel it, elevate your heels and drive more thru the ball of your foot.🦶
If your new to the safety squat bar give it a try and let me know what you think of it. If your experienced, drop your knowledge in the comment section:)
RDL’s making a come back to my posterior chain workout. Changing my workouts quite a bit in preparation for a bigger, better fall competition season. I lifted like a bikini competitor to get this far but that’s not going to get me the back I want. So, maybe those videos the bikini competitors have been throwing up didn’t show the off-season work it took to build the size and depth there backs appear to have🧐 Back to the drawing board🤩
Did you know high box steps is one of the #1 activators for your glutes...it must be that long stretch in the muscle because low box steps ups did not make the list
One of my favorite ways to stay fit is to PLAY. Instead of watching my kids from the sidelines I still participate. (I joined in the jumping after putting the camera down;) Annual float trip 2020
