Let’s us know who you thought did it best 👇
Let’s build those calf muscles‼️
The gastrocnemius and soleus are often ignored but are essential for many activities; such as walking, running, and jumping as well as aiding in your balance.
Save these exercises to add to your next leg day and strengthen those calves 🦵
We’re starting August off strong 💪
Who’s ready to crush this month’s goals?
❗️ Train your CORE❗️
The core is made up of muscles in the pelvis, lower back, hips, and abdomen. Together, they work to keep the body balanced and stable. These groups are the center of any movement, making these muscles essential to train and strengthen.
Strengthening these muscles will help make day-to-day activities easier and will also help reduce and prevent lower back pain.
Engaging your core throughout your movements during a workout is 🔑
The Push-Up is a workout you’ll want to learn!
With so many variations/modifications and the ability to be performed anywhere, push-ups can be performed by anyone from beginners to advanced athletes.
Push-Ups are great for upper body strength, core stability, improving balance, injury prevention, and so much more!
Perfect your push-up form, commit to a push-up challenge, and see how far you can go 💪

DEADLIFTS 💪 As a multi joint movement, this lift works a range of muscle groups and can greatly enhance your full body workout when performed with proper technique. Start building strength, improving your posture, and burning more calories! Step 1: Practice Form with PVC Pipe - squeeze shoulder blades for tension - slight bend in knees - hinge at hips and push butt back - keep pipe level on your back throughout movement 👉 This will teach you to keep your back straight and use your hips - although this works multiple muscle groups, it is also a hip dominate movement. Step 2: Practice Form with a Box and Kettlebell - toes to box - pull shoulders back and down; activate those lats! - big chest with focal point outward - with the same movement from step 1, come down and tap the ground with the kettlebell - breath in on your way down and breath out on your way up 👉 The box is used to be sure your knees do not crossover your toes. Step 3: Practice Form with a Bar - feet inside of knurling (‘grip’ portion of the bar) - shins touching the bar - hands outside of hips and down to the bar - remove any slack in arms by extending them - hold bar as if you’re trying to bend it - use your now perfected form 🤌 - breath in on your way down and breath out on your way up - stand tall and squeeze glutes (be sure to not hip into movement at the top - this can hurt your lower spine) Save this video, perfect the form, reap the benefits 🔥 #trythis #desmoines
