Rocky Pull-Ups/Pulldowns
Grab the pull-up bar with the palms facing forward using a wide grip.
Romanian Deadlift
Put a barbell in front of you on the ground and grab it using a pronated (palms facing down) grip that a little wider than shoulder width. Tip: Depending on the weight used, you may need wrist wraps to perform the exercise and also a raised platform in order to allow for better range of motion.
Romanian Deadlift from Deficit
Begin standing while holding a bar at arm's length in front of you. You can stand on a raised platform to increase the range of motion.
Rope Climb
Grab the rope with both hands above your head. Pull down on the rope as you take a small jump.
Rope Crunch
Kneel 1-2 feet in front of a cable system with a rope attached.
Rope Jumping
Hold an end of the rope in each hand. Position the rope behind you on the ground. Raise your arms up and turn the rope over your head bringing it down in front of you. When it reaches the ground, jump over it. Find a good turning pace that can be maintained. Different speeds and techniques can be used to introduce variation.
Rope Straight-Arm Pulldown
Attach a rope to a high pulley and make your weight selection. Stand a couple feet back from the pulley with your feet staggered and take the rope with both hands. Lean forward from the hip, keeping your back straight, with your arms extended up in front of you. This will be your starting position.
Rotational Medicine Ball Scoop Toss
A standing rotational drive followed by a low-to-high scooping release — the ball is launched forward and upward, mimicking the upward release angle of an aggressive driver swing. Distinct from Medicine Ball Scoop Throw (vertical, shoulder-led scoop without rotation) and rotational throws with horizontal release.
Round The World Shoulder Stretch
Stand up straight with your legs together, holding a bodybar or broomstick.
Rowing Machine
Low-impact full-body cardio that warms the posterior chain, legs, and grip. Ideal pre-workout for pull and leg days.
Rowing, Stationary
To begin, seat yourself on the rower. Make sure that your heels are resting comfortably against the base of the foot pedals and that the straps are secured. Select the program that you wish to use, if applicable. Sit up straight and bend forward at the hips.
Runner's Stretch
It's easiest to get into this stretch if you start standing up, put one leg behind you, and slowly lower your torso down to the floor.
Running, Treadmill
To begin, step onto the treadmill and select the desired option from the menu. Most treadmills have a manual setting, or you can select a program to run. Typically, you can enter your age and weight to estimate the amount of calories burned during exercise. Elevation can be adjusted to change the intensity of the workout.
Sandbag Load
To load sandbags or other objects, begin with the implements placed a distance from the loading platform, typically 50 feet.
Scapular Pull-Up
Take a pronated grip on a pull-up bar.
Scapular Push-Up
Serratus anterior activation. Teaches scapular control that stabilizes the shoulder during all pressing movements.
Scissor Kick
To begin, lie down with your back pressed against the floor or on an exercise mat (optional). Your arms should be fully extended to the sides with your palms facing down. Note: The arms should be stationary the entire time.
Scissors Jump
Assume a lunge stance position with one foot forward with the knee bent, and the rear knee nearly touching the ground.
Seated Band Hamstring Curl
Secure a band close to the ground and place a bench a couple feet away from it.
Seated Barbell Military Press
Sit on a Military Press Bench with a bar behind your head and either have a spotter give you the bar (better on the rotator cuff this way) or pick it up yourself carefully with a pronated grip (palms facing forward). Tip: Your grip should be wider than shoulder width and it should create a 90-degree angle between the forearm and the upper arm as the barbell goes down.
Seated Barbell Shoulder Press
The Seated Barbell Shoulder Press is a fundamental upper-body strength exercise performed seated with back support. It primarily develops the shoulders and triceps while requiring core and upper-back stability. The seated setup with back support reduces the lower-body and trunk-stabilisation demand compared to the standing Overhead Press, isolating the shoulder press more cleanly. Distinct from the strict standing Overhead Press (no back support, vertical strict press), Seated Barbell Military Press (behind-neck seated variant with wider grip), and Standing Military Press (standing wide-grip variant).
Seated Barbell Twist
Start out by sitting at the end of a flat bench with a barbell placed on top of your thighs. Your feet should be shoulder width apart from each other.
Seated Bent-Over One-Arm Dumbbell Triceps Extension
Sit down at the end of a flat bench with a dumbbell in one arm using a neutral grip (palms of the hand facing you).
Seated Bent-Over Rear Delt Raise
Place a couple of dumbbells looking forward in front of a flat bench.
Seated Bent-Over Two-Arm Dumbbell Triceps Extension
Sit down at the end of a flat bench with a dumbbell in both arms using a neutral grip (palms of the hand facing you).
Seated Biceps
Sit on the floor with your knees bent and your partner standing behind you. Extend your arms straight behind you with your palms facing each other. Your partner will hold your wrists for you. This will be the starting position.
Seated Cable Rows
For this exercise you will need access to a low pulley row machine with a V-bar. Note: The V-bar will enable you to have a neutral grip where the palms of your hands face each other. To get into the starting position, first sit down on the machine and place your feet on the front platform or crossbar provided making sure that your knees are slightly bent and not locked.
Seated Cable Shoulder Press
Adjust the weight to an appropriate amount and be seated, grasping the handles. Your upper arms should be about 90 degrees to the body, with your head and chest up. The elbows should also be bent to about 90 degrees. This will be your starting position.
Seated Calf Raise
Sit on the machine and place your toes on the lower portion of the platform provided with the heels extending off. Choose the toe positioning of your choice (forward, in, or out) as per the beginning of this chapter.
Seated Calf Stretch
Sit up straight on an exercise mat.
