TRX Y-FLY
Facing the anchor point, send the hips back while keeping your legs and arms extended. Draw your body forward by pulling the arms up into a Y, shifting your weight from your heels of your feet to the balls of your feet. Keep tension on the straps throughout the entire movement. 
Picture

TRX CHEST PRESS
With the straps long, face away from the anchor point and extend your arms forward, palms facing down. Lower your chest into a wide push-up position while squeezing your glutes and bracing through your core. Press away from the straps to return to your starting position, making sure to press evenly through both arms. The further your feet are behind you, the more challenging this becomes. 
Picture

TRX LUNGE TO KNEE DRIVE
Face the anchor point and begin in a reverse lunge position with one knee bent at 90 degrees in front of you and the other leg bent behind. Use your core to stabilize through the standing leg as you drive the back knee toward your chest. Option to pause and hold at the top for an added stability challenge. Think about pressing evenly through all ten toes in the standing leg. Tension remains in the straps, however elbows are fairly bent.

TRX LOW ROW
Facing the anchor point, walk your feet forward and lean back until arms are extended and tension is felt in the straps. Bend the elbows to pull your chest forward while squeezing the back of your body. 
Picture

BARBELL DEADLIFT
​Standing tall, start to hinge your hips as you bend your knees and lower into a deadlift position. Keep the head and neck in line with your spine, and send your shoulders back and down. Squeeze your glutes to bring yourself back to an upright position, keeping the arms extended and holding the barbell. Avoid arching the low back or rounding the shoulders. 
Picture
Picture
PUSH-UPS TO BAR
Find your plank position with your hands a little wider than shoulder-width on the bar. Slowly lower yourself down into a push-up and explosively bring yourself back up. To activate your triceps, bring your hands and elbows in closer to the midline. To find more stability in the hips and relieve pressure in the low back, widen your stance. 
CABLE SQUAT ROWS 
Holding a rope or bar with both hands, walk yourself back to your desired resistance. Lower into your squat while keeping the arms extended in front of you, then bend the elbows to pull the cable toward you as you stand and row. 
Picture
LUNGE WITH MEDICINE BALL ROTATION
Holding a medicine ball, send one foot forward and lower into your lunge. Pause to stabilize through the hips as you rotate from the torso. Stand back up and repeat on other leg, layering the rotation with the medicine ball. This can be done as a walking lunge or regular forward lunge.

KETTLEBELL SWINGS
Hinge at the hips, bend the knees and hold the kettlebell by the handle between both legs. Driving the movement with your core and glutes, swing the kettlebell forward, no higher than shoulder height. Be sure to keep the spine as neutral as possible, avoiding any rounding or arching. 
Picture
Picture
SLIDER PUSH-UPS
Begin in a high plank position with one slider under each foot. Lower yourself down to a push-up as you slide your legs out into a V shape. Slide the legs back in as you press back up to a plank. Think about pressing the floor away to stay stable through the back of your shoulders.

KETTLEBELL SPLIT SQUAT
Holding the base of a kettlebell upright, stagger one leg in front of the other and lower into your split squat, ideally forming a 90 degree bend in both knees. Brace through all ten toes of the forward foot as you squeeze your glutes to come back up to standing. 
Picture
Picture
TRX INVERTED ROW
Walk your feet under the anchor point in a wide stance. Bend the knees to send your hips and upper body in a floating bridge-like position. Start with your arms extended and tension in the straps, then bend your elbows to pull your chest up toward the straps. Return to starting position. Glute activation is crucial here! 
Picture
30 SECOND BOSU HOLD
Standing on the flat/platform side of a BOSU, find stability through your core and feet as you lower down into a squat. Option to send the arms out in front of you or overhead for an added challenge. Hold this position for 30 seconds, aiming to keep the BOSU as still as possible. Use your breath to plug your belly button in toward your spine as you brace your core. 
30 SECONDS EACH ON BOSU
  • Mountain Climbers
  • Burpees (option to add overhead press or jump)
  • Lateral jumps
