1:31 Orange Theory so you know whatever that means to you so that's not real lifting so we're going to we're going to do some real lifting and so we've committed to doing it once a week all right Benjamin's going to hold the camera today we'll film and she's going to do what I would do with you if you hadn't lifted in a in a year and you can only lift one day a week all right so join us join us you ready wife ready okay okay we have two main lifts today we'll have back swap we'll have overhead press let's get um see that barbell that's in the corner mhm you can bring that over here you remember how to do this yeah okay we're doing back squat so it's going to be able cross your shoulders good good what it what it look like good right there good I like that pause at the bottom right there you don't even need to go as low in fact I prefer you not go as low so go right below parallel like right there pause 1000 and then out mhm that's

2:47 good good pushing the knees out yep keeping the feet right where they are just do two more when you come up out of the squat are you in a position where you can squeeze your butt at the top yeah okay cool and you can lift your knees like tighten your quads at the top yeah yep good so I want to make sure that we do that at the top every time okay so you're going to pause at the bottom just below parallel and then squeeze it top okay and go slow in between just like you're doing okay good time so you had some back pain last time you did this by yourself M you did it with the slant board mhm you did a lot of a lot of reps what part of your back was bothering you little right here okay gotcha okay cool there you can even do it from here B in tucked and then go into it right there 1000 and then I'll pause a little bit longer up good wait for my up signal there you go oh I forgot that's a long

4:25 one is that four yeah but of you good right nice five all right everyone's pretty good feels pretty good mhmh oh good yep tightening it at the top and when you're way up just now you straightened your legs and then brought your back okay so try to get the hips to stay under the head so everything comes up at once okay that's better good using those legs using the knees how many is that think four maybe one more so when you're squatting your butt still goes out a lot there's a lot of arch there yeah I want you to can you do that probably not but I'll try can you do that try

6:15 that yeah whoop that time you fell forward by raising your legs faster than your torso I'm going to raise the Torso with the legs my hips are went back though try concentrate good stays up ah you're falling forward you're tipping forward yep stay ight it's just tuck your core do one more tuck those elbows in pull your belly in head to the ceilings not bad good how would you say that feels in comparison to the other take of squ how's it feel um it feels better yeah yeah Sumo Sumo Sumo yeah you can use your abdominals more you can use your upper hamstrings more you can squeeze your glutes better at the top yeah it's much more stable um I like it I like it too

7:45 Sumo it's good for corrective measures I'm not saying powerlifter should uh compete with sumo but it's good when you want to engage the right muscles still tiing forward go all legs there you go that was better a little stronger at the bottom pause good that look a lot better still a little bit of a tip forward I know you feel it bab you have like L of a crease in your hips it's more flat yeah and that's what we want to do we want to do it from that flat position more flat we keep it the better so instead of sticking the butt out to do the squat in order to leverage you got to stay upright more but if you do tip it's here as opposed to here last set

9:03 yep yeah that felt better yeah much better yeah that's exactly it right there good take those off them on the floor take this CL and I'm going to get another B okay well you know how to do overhead presses and you're going to do it with these bars right there you get under it good now your set up from the feet feet up is bend the knees slightly and tuck your butt under just like you're doing that squat right so we want to keep the rib cage down and the butt tucked under that way you're engaging your abs and your glutes yep you don't have to move the head off to the way too much cuz that bar has a yeah there you go see go slow yep and then triceps at the top hear you cracking over there there we go that five that so it's your left elbow that bothers in yes that's the one that's cracking no the both CRA both cracking yeah so here's what I want to do with the cracking cracking means that there's

11:04 a good chance that the it's just not articulating right it's not you're it's not rotating smoothly but if we slow down sometimes it finds the right Groove so two things to stop the cracking squeeze a little bit tighter and go a little bit slower especially in in the portion that typically cracks okay cuz if we go slower it might hold in its right position longer okay and not make that noise but but it's not a

11:40 guarantee my shoulders cracking too not just my elbows gotcha try to keep your shoulder blades down next time will give you a better shoulder warm up ah no crack when you do that right yeah you got think about keeping the shoulder blades down and back point to your your tailone

12:02 yeah nice yep good so um takes a lot of concentration to keep that shoulder blade down right yeah yeah so work on that you bring elbows forward rather than out yeah that's good here look crazy yes all right see what I'm doing cool

12:42 good yeah good nice and slow this time do as many as you can when you get to five keep going make it your last set six right mhm I think you got 10 of those mhm mhm nice good job so here was my logic with putting the program together so I wanted to do squats full body a lot of legs overhead press still kind of full body but uphead press but then instead of a deadlift or a row Kake carries why Kake carries well I mean besides the fact that it is a dead lift and a away off the ground but it works the upper back muscles like rows and works the posterior chain the hamstrings like deadlifts and it's moving it's functional get our heart rate up a little bit and stuff like that works the biceps really a lot so it's you know it's one one exercise to kill them all right so instead of having to do bicep curls hamstring curls rows cake carries okay all right well you've done this before you know what you do right M tip it here

14:47 pick it up you going to hold it close to your body just take it to the grass put it down on the grass right all right yep cool and when you're ready pick it up and bring it back probably a good thumbnail in there b yeah Bo look smiling though not not we'll do it

16:18 again stay pause right there yep same way you had your butt tucked under yeah yep I want you to keep that flat there too yourd dropping the dropping the chest down to it bringing your hips with you how many sets let's do one more one more set and then we'll do planks and then you're done okay not bad for your first day first day back yeah eyes on me people or animals
