  • Dumbbell Incline Rear Lateral T Raise

    The Dumbbell Incline Rear Lateral Raise is an isolation exercise targeting the rear deltoids, as well as engaging the upper back muscles including the rhomboids and trapezius. It is performed on an incline bench to allow for a greater range of motion and to minimize the involvement of other muscle groups.

  • One-Arm Cable Rear Delt Fly

    The Single Arm Cable Rear Delt Fly is an isolation exercise targeting the rear deltoid muscles. This exercise helps improve shoulder stability and posture by focusing on the posterior part of the shoulder. It requires a cable machine and is performed one arm at a time to ensure balanced muscle development.

  • Assault Air Bike

    The Assault Air Bike is a high-intensity cardio machine that combines the benefits of cycling and upper body workouts. It uses air resistance, which increases with the speed and power of your pedaling, providing a scalable workout suitable for all fitness levels. The bike features moving handlebars, allowing for a full-body workout that engages both the lower and upper body muscles.
    LegsAdvanced
  • Chest Supported Lateral T Raise

    The Chest Supported Lateral T Raise is an isolation exercise targeting the rear deltoids, with secondary engagement of the upper back muscles. This exercise is performed on an incline bench set at an angle greater than 45 degrees, allowing for optimal isolation of the rear delts while minimizing lower back strain.
    ShouldersIntermediate
  • Pendlay Row

    The Pendlay Row is a barbell exercise that targets the upper back, lats, and traps. It emphasizes strict form and explosive power from a dead stop position, making it an effective movement for building strength and muscle mass in the back.
    BackIntermediate
  • Dumbbell Snatch

    The one-arm dumbbell snatch is a dynamic, full-body exercise that primarily targets the shoulders, back, and legs. It enhances power, coordination, and explosiveness by involving multiple muscle groups in a single, fluid motion.

  • Cable Seated Rear Lateral Raise

    Cable Seated Rear Lateral Raise is a seated cable isolation exercise for the rear deltoids. Cable resistance maintains tension while the seated position limits momentum from the lower body.
    ShouldersBeginner
  • Cable Seated Row Neutral Grip

    The Cable Seated Row Neutral Grip is a compound exercise that targets the muscles of the upper back, including the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, and trapezius. It also engages the biceps and forearms as secondary muscles. This exercise is performed using a cable machine with a neutral grip attachment, allowing for a natural hand position that reduces strain on the wrists.
    BackIntermediate
  • Barbell Rear Delt Row

    Barbell Rear Delt Row is a bent-over barbell pull that emphasizes the rear deltoids, upper back, and trapezius. Its elbow path distinguishes it from a standard barbell row focused on the lats.
    BackIntermediate
  • Incline Chest Supported Barbell Row

    The Barbell Incline Row on Bench is a compound exercise targeting the upper back, primarily the rhomboids, trapezius, and rear deltoids. It also engages the biceps and forearms as secondary muscles. This exercise is performed on an incline bench, which helps isolate the upper back muscles more effectively than a flat bench row.
    BackIntermediate
  • Trap Y Raise

    The Trap Y Raise is an isolation exercise targeting the trapezius muscles, particularly the lower and middle fibers, as well as the rear deltoids. It is performed with light weights to focus on muscle activation and improve shoulder stability and posture.
    ShouldersIntermediate
  • Seated Bent Over Dumbbell Lateral Raise

    The Seated Bent Over Dumbbell Lateral Raise targets the posterior deltoids, trapezius, and rhomboids. This exercise enhances shoulder stability and improves upper back strength. It is performed while seated, which helps isolate the muscles by minimizing momentum.
    ShouldersBeginner
  • Cable Incline Y Raise Back Supported

    The Cable Incline Y Raise Back Supported is an isolation exercise targeting the upper back and shoulders, specifically the rear deltoids, trapezius, and rhomboids. This exercise is performed on an incline bench with cables, allowing for a controlled range of motion and constant tension on the muscles.
