Want to get fit with the help of a high profile trainer? Now you can. We teamed up with Harley Pasternak-who trains celebs like Ariana Grande, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga-to learn the best exercises to bolster and tone the back of the body.?
According to Pasternak, we spend so much of our time working out the anterior areas of our body (think: abs, quads), the muscles within the posterior chain-like the triceps, glutes, and deltoids-tend to become forgotten.?
The solution? These five simple exercises that actually work the all-important muscles and help to improve your posture too.
Start from the lunge position together with your left leg forward as well as your left elbow resting on your knee. Grab a dumbbell with your right-hand. Row the dumbbell up along your ribs, squeezing the right shoulderblade. “I always tell people, imagine you’re starting a lawnmower,” Pasternak says.?
The stiff-leg dead lift that actually works your hamstrings, hard. Hold a dumbbell in each hand, placed in front of the hips. Imagine you’re pushing your hips back on the horizontal track, after which move them forward again. Your weights is going down only so far as your hamstrings you’ll allow without rounding your back. You need to feel a stretch in your hamstrings as you extend back.?
Next, we get at the tough-to-tone backs from the arms with triceps extensions. Lie down lying on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the ground. Grab your weights and put them on either side of the head, elbows bent, and then extend your arms straight above your face. Repeat. Pasternak, who’s additionally a nutritionist and best-selling author, refers to this as among the best methods for getting cut arms fast.
Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor. Bring your elbows to your sides. Dig your heels into the ground, engage your glutes, and push your hips up. Lower slowly, and repeat. Make this move harder with the addition of a lying triceps extension.?
Lie on your stomach. Extend your arms in front individuals, or bend your arms and put your hands near your temples. Lift your torso and lower body simultaneously. Repeat.?
