Workout: I'm Bringing Sexy Back (yes, it's a back workout)

If you're not naming your workouts with weird titles then you are absolutely missing out on some little joy in your life. 10/10 recommend. Alright, let's get to it.

Today's workout will crush your back muscles in both the horizontal + vertical planes, and it will also hit the main accessory muscle used in 'pull' movements - the biceps.

WORKOUT:

1. SUPERSET - Repeat 4x

Push Ups 10x

Lat Pull Down 10x

2. SUPERSET - Repeat 3x

Single Arm Row 10x ea.

Barbell Bicep Curl 10x

4. SUPERSET - Repeat 3x

Seated Row 10x

Hammer Curl 10x

5. Reverse Flys 3 x 10

I ended with 20 minutes of low intensity cardio - 10 minutes on the stair master + 10 minutes incline treadmill walk on speed 3.0. (I personally can't stand to be on a machine for more than 10 minutes at a time...*ew david*).

Real quick let me explain the push ups..."yeah Bex you said this is a back workout?!" Ok, ok, ok. PERSONALLY, push ups (a 'push' movement) feel much better for me when paired with a pull movement. When you superset push + pull movements, you're working opposing muscle groups. This means that fatigue isn't as much of a factor when moving from one movement to the next. This is why I always include push ups in my back days. I like when my push ups feel good. Simple as that :)

The takeaway:

- Name your workouts something exciting (just wait til I post about my "lord far-QUAD" day...)

- Push ups feel better when you superset with a pull movement. Try it and I dare you to tell me otherwise.

Happy lifting!
