Back & Glutes – 7/2

Back & Glutes
Back:
-assisted pull ups
-wide grip seated cable rows
-bent over barbell rows
     -superset with barbell deadlifts
-wide grip lat pull lat pull downs (drop sets)

Glutes:
-smith machine single leg deadlifts
     -superset with smith machine split squats
-glute bridges
     -superset with jump squats

TIP OF THE DAY: Reps? Sets? Weight? I do not post these numbers because I want you all to identify your goals (building muscle, losing fat, etc.), and preform the number of sets/reps designated for those pathways. For more on this, check out a past video blog I shared (click here). For weight, I suggest starting at a weight in which you can use proper form. From there, you can move up as it becomes easier for you. Still, I would recommend form taking precedence over upping the weight.

Daily Dose of Motivation: Stay away from those nasty tabloids… don’t let allow marketing research and tactics to alter your confidence. There are moments
where I can’t help but think what is wrong with this world:
reading tabloid covers at the grocery store check out. My thoughts… 1) If you actually buy these magazines thinking you will feel better about
yourself after seeing a celebrity look bad, seek professional help 2) Don’t let yourself be a victim of marketing (magazine covers of how a
celebrity dropped 10lbs in 2 weeks or a miracle diet & secret
workout plan of a VS model) 3) Commenting on how someone is too thin is
just as hurtful as calling someone overweight, which I think is one of
the greatest double standards in society.

Fitness Barbie Style: “Fashion fades, style is eternal” I’ve never been into the latest trends…my style is all about classic, timeless, elegance. I like mixing high end pieces with inexpensive items. I really believe what makes an outfit look great is person wearing it; yes, a great body helps, but a little bit of confidence goes a long way.

Sandals: City Classified
Flats: Mia
