When you train in a gym with very limited equipment you come up with interesting ways to train different muscles.
This is one of the movements that to be honest with you we just said “what the hell try this” and did it.
I will admit it. This is one movement I discovered just screwing around in the gym.
This exercise is designed to work the glutes, quads, and hamstrings while keeping the stress off the lower back.
This movement is great for so many reason I am not sure where to begin.
This is not a major mass builder or strength developer but it a great movement for adding Volume to your tricep training.
Maintain approx 90 degrees shoulder abduction as you flex your elbows and retract your scapula
Grab the handles and set your body up in a standard push-up position.
This is a very challenging exercise but a tremendous way to develop your upper back.
Initiate movement with shoulders and elbows flexed just past 90 degrees
This is a great exercise to build your deadlift and teach you to maintain proper position when squatting.
While this exercise is based off a basic lunge, I suggest you give it a try.
This is a killer hamstring movement that my good friend Todd Brock used to live by when trying to build his sumo deadlift.
Just when you think you’ve seen it all, someone comes out with another curl bar.
This has become a classic hamstring and lower back movement over the years for one reason, it works!
Do you ever do an exercise and then think to yourself, “What the hell was I doing?”
To set up for standing “strip the rack” close grip shoulder presses, you set the J-hook in the power rack at chin level.
Setup in a power rack and perform supine rows side to side while maintaining a straight torso line.
This is a HARD CORE max effort movement that will blow your head off.
This movement is performed the same as the regular box squat except you will be using the Safety Squat Bar.
I can’t lie. I’ve done these a couple of times and before the RAW Mafia come blazing, let me explain.
The incline press is a fairly standard lift, so I don’t think that there is too much that needs to be said about this lift.
I love this exercise. It’s a great rotational ab exercise that powerlifters and athletes alike should use.
This is a great supplemental or accessory exercise to help build your deadlift.
Hold the collar of the barbell with both hands, interlocking your fingers for a good grip.
