SHOULDERS

LATERAL FLEX (lunge optional)
Traditional reps are momentum based – simply moving weight up and down. The key to this lateral flex is to FLEX throughout the ENTIRE rep – from start to finish.
1. Strong, safe lunge – posture tall – suck in abs the entire time.
2. FLEX your lats before you start the rep – intensify FLEX at squeeze even harder at top – FLEX LIKE A MOTHER on the way down.
3. FLEX, SQUEEZE + BREATHE.
FRONT RAISE FLEX (lunge optional)
This was filmed without weight to show the benefit from FLEXING throughout the entire rep.
1. Strong, safe lunge with perfect posture + abs sucked in the entire time.
2. Start your FLEX before you start the rep. Think ‘resistance flexing’ throughout. Squeeze even harder at the top and keep your FLEX on the way down.
3. FLEX, SQUEEZE + BREATHE.
