The bus driver exercise is a great prehab and warm up exercise to perform to promote rotator cuff health. Rotator cuffs are one of the more common injuries, especially as lifters get older. Performing prehab exercises such as bus drivers can help prevent injury and increase your longevity in the gym.

Cross body cable tricep extensions enhances your triceps symmetry. Similarly, because you're training each arm independently, like in a horizontal tricep extension, the cable cross triceps extension is naturally an excellent exercise for developing proportional upper arms because it provides your triceps with equal amounts of work.

The standing banded row is an easy to perform shoulder and upper back exercise that works:
* Scapular retraction
* Scapular protraction
* Shoulder external rotation
* Shoulder extension
* Thoracic extension isometric

Training these motions helps to keep your shoulders and upper back strong and healthy, while building body awareness so you can differentiate motion between your:
* Shoulder joints
* Shoulder blades
* Upper back

Knowing how to differentiate movement in these areas of your body helps you to perform exercises with correct form.

The standing banded row only requires the following equipment:
* A Resistance band
* Something to attach the band to (a pole, pull up rig, etc)

Why are functional movements important?!

Functional movements take your joints through their full range of motion and engages the stabilizing muscles. This is important in preventing injury and bringing efficient and healthy movement back to the body. The seven general movement patterns of the body are squat, lunge, push, pull, hinge, twist, and walk.

When pulling into the contracted position aim for 90 deg joint angles which is ideal for most movements. Lack of appropriate lat activation, as well as insufficient scapular stabilization, causes the elbows to move too far behind torso. This also creates more tension in the neck, low back, shoulders, & upper traps rather than the lats & midale-upper back.

During the stretched position, similar rules apply. The ideal end range of motion should produce a natural stretch of the mid & upper back, not excessive. As the load pulls you
into stretch, the elbows will fully straighten. However, the shoulders will stay semi retracted.

This is where many lifters make a common mistake of allowing their upper back & lats to stretch so much that the shoulders & upper back round forward. As a result, this no longer engages or stretches the muscles of the lats & upper back simply because those muscles had to disengage.

The L-Sit or Z-Press position reinforces tight abs & braced core which promotes neutral spine & eliminates excessive lumbar extension that's very common on overhead presses, pullups & Chinups.

There are 5 Benefits of the Z Press or L-Sit position.

1.Many lifters have a tendency to over-arch their lumbar spine on overhead presses & pullups because they lack proper t-spine mobility & core activation. The Z press remedies that.

2. The Z press is excellent for teaching proper lockout mechanics & overhead slot position. Many lifters finish the lockout position with the weight too far in front of their torso. With the Z-press you'll need to press the bar up &
behind you to keep balance & not fall backward.

3. A common problem on overhead presses & pullups is cervical hyperextension where the lifter tilts their head up. The Z press helps correct this as excessive cervical extension results in loss of balance.

4. Excessive momentum & sloppy mechanics are common on overhead press & Pullups. The L-sit position helps remedy that.

5. The Z Press is very versatile & can be modified & regressed through a number of methods as shown in article below.

Should you use machines or free weights??

Well it totally depends but it's not like one option is better than the other. Machines and free weights have pros and cons.

I wanted to outline some of these pros and cons, one of the most notable pros for machines is the added stability and increased specificity (lines of pull) however. free weights are far far more versatile and typically carry a smaller foot print.

What else might you add??
