This exercise is very good if you do a lot of bench pressing or chest pressing and you need to strengthen your back. So you’ll need a cable stack and a rope for this exercise. Now, place the rope at the highest setting, take a few steps back from the machine, take a proud posture and add a slight bend in your knees and then grip the rope with your hands straight out and in front of your face. Next, you want to pull the rope towards your face, keeping your elbows out and squeezing your shoulder blades together. If you work out at the gym, this is a great exercise to add into your program.

You’ll find that this warm-up as a couple more exercises than you may be familiar with in a warm-up, but the goal is to have you better prepared for your actual workout. So to start out, you’ll begin with a Y-Squat. Place your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands up in the Y position. Next, push your hips out, squat down, and then drive up and repeat. Be sure to keep your hands back throughout this exercise. Next is the Push up exercise or Kneeling Push ups if you’re a beginner. From there, you will go against the wall and do the Stick-up exercise. So with your hips, elbows, wrists, shoulders, and head against the wall, lift your shoulders up over head and then back down. This is a great exercise to warm up your upper back and increase your shoulder mobility. Next, is the Mountain Climber exercise. From a push up position, bring one knee up to your chest and back out, alternating sides. Keep your hips low and brace your abs. After that exercise you will follow with the Forward Lunge exercise. Take a step out,drop your hips straight down, and drive up with that lead leg. Alternate sides. Once you have done all reps for the lunge, immediately go into the Waiter’s Bow exercise.

Evolution of Pullups
24
CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com Today I’m going to show you the evolution of pull-ups, going from a beginner style to the hardest kind you can do. If you are new to pull-ups and cant do any actual pull-ups, you want to start with an inverted row. You will be underneath a bar and rowing your chest up to the bar. It’s a great way to start. You can do a beginner version of inverted rows by bending your knees. Hold onto the bar with an overhand grip. Keep your hips up and pull your chest up to the bar. Squeeze your shoulder blades at the top. This will help strengthen the muscles between your shoulder blades, the back of your shoulders and your lats. Once you are a little stronger, you can straighten your legs out, switch to an underhand grip. This will work your biceps more. For underhand inverted rows, you will have more of a narrow grip and pull your chest to the bar. Next well switch back to an overhand grip and back to a wider grip. This is back to working the muscles at the back of the shoulder blades and between the shoulder blades. You can put your feet up on a stability ball to give you more of a challenge. Those are all inverted row variations to get you started. Next are assisted pull-ups and chin-ups. You need to take the bar of your squat rack and set it up about head height. You will be doing the pull-up and chin-up movement, but you will still be standing on the floor. This is for beginners as well. Simply work as much as possible …
