Accessory Work | Save this one

KB Front Rack Carry
Build core stability, upper-body strength & postural control. Keep elbows tucked, wrists neutral, ribs stacked over hips, and core braced. Walk tall with controlled steps.

Short Lever Copenhagen Plank
Strengthen the adductors, hips & core. Press the top knee into the bench, lift the hips, brace the core, and keep hips stacked without sagging or rotating.

Alternating DB Curls
Build biceps strength & control. Keep elbows close to your sides, curl toward the shoulder, squeeze at the top, and lower with control.

Prone Y to Hips
Build upper-back strength & scapular control. Start in a “Y,” keep arms straight, and pull them toward the hips while squeezing the shoulder blades down and together.

Elbow Plank Rollout on Rings
Challenge core & shoulder stability. With feet in the rings, brace the core and glutes, then slowly rock forward and back while maintaining a strong plank.

Bilateral Hip Extension
Strengthen the glutes & hamstrings. Drive through both feet, squeeze the glutes to extend the hips, and keep ribs down without arching the low back.

ISO Side Bend Hold
Build lateral core & oblique strength. Hold the weight at one side, brace hard, and keep your shoulders and hips level without letting the weight pull you sideways.

DB Overhead Tricep Extension
Build triceps strength & overhead stability. Keep elbows forward and ribs down as you lower the DB behind your head, then extend and squeeze at the top.

Happy lifting!
