Hey everybody, it's Jeff Cavaliere from athleanx.com back here with a new video for the week and
I think you're really gonna like this one... because what we try to incorporate with athLEAN-X
a lot is athletic movements, movements that will build that lean, ripped, but muscular
athletic body, guys.
But one of the things that I think you need to understand is that in order to look like
an athlete, you have to train like one.
So when we move, we move in sort of groups or patterns, I like to call them my flexions
or extension patterns... but if you really wanna mix it up, what you can do every now
and then is throw a flesh in the extension using the same exercise.
Now two real cool exercises that are pretty unique I want you to see here tonight, because
you're probably gonna want to incorporate into your workout, if you wanna look like
an athlete.
So basically what I do is I grab a dumbbell and my band...I have a band hung up over the
squat rack.
I'm gonna position myself where I slide down onto the ball.
You need to have enough tension on that band.
Now as I come up, I'm gonna pull and push.
So I'm working the right side as I pull and I'm working the right side as I push.
You can see the lower core stabilization that goes into this, as well.
Basically, you're working 10-12 reps.
Ok, and you swap it and you go the other side.
Now I'm gonna come over on this bench right now and I'm gonna show you another real cool
exercise where we're gonna work on another pulling, another extension movement at the
same time.
Get yourself onto a bench...it could be a skinny bench here, which is good because it
makes it more challenging.
So I'm getting myself in this rowing position on the bench, put one hand here for support
and drop this arm down.
Now as I row, I'm gonna go out and extend the right side of the lower back.
Now I don't know if you can see it, but on this left side here, the obliques and my abs
are really working hard and I'm not even working that area.
I'm actually targeting the left side over here, biceps and extension on the right lower
back.
So a kind of tempo looks like that, with a hold at the end.
So again, we're working both sides of the body, 2-3 sets.
The principle and what's most important is that we train in flexion, we train extension,
but sometimes we gotta mix it up.
If you haven't already started training with athLEAN-X, start doing that.
You're gonna see that the whole program is geared towards these types of things...
...incorporating moves that challenge your body to move in a different way than you're
probably used to...especially if all you've done is a bunch of bench press, squats, pushups,
some of the regular standard stuff.
It's not good enough, it's not good enough if you wanna look your best...especially in
the next 90 days.
So guys, head over to athleanx.com right now, pick up your copy of the athLEAN-X training
system and get started today, so you'll be ready.
Because here we are today, April whatever...in June you need to be ready for the beach, so
I'm gonna help you get there.
Alright guys, I'm gonna talk to you soon.
We'll be back with more great videos.
