NOTE: Exercises #7-#8 are for your lower back, if barbell dead lift is too hard on your knees, and your gym has a hyper back extension machine as shown in pic below u can choose those in place of.. Use a plate to hold to chest.. A 25lb good! If you do this exercise make sure you go level at the top as shown in pic, and NOT any further up or arching! Just level and back down. It should feel real good on your lower back as u stretch at the bottom and raise up. If you choose to do the dead lifts and want to do the hyper back extensions do without weight and stretch your back after your workout =) Train like a "Animal"

Aloha Kristy,

I do these workouts for a close friend that lives on my neighbor island.. I cannot be there in person to train him in the gym, but I make his workouts for him. I have been giving him a lot of new favorite exercises of mine so I now just add pictures to identify each exercise so there is not question what it is, or how to do them. I like to still put a pic for most exercises that he already knows, as it makes me feel better as his trainer to make sure if I cannot be there in person. I change angles, hand placement, etc around a lot on him, so I like to be sure and include pictures with his workouts..=)
