Didn't you know that in-between-set dancing increases your gains by 98%?? :P 

Preferentially, what allows me to adhere easily to my nutrition plan (especially when in a caloric deficit if the goal is fat-loss), is delaying my breakfast until closer to lunch (Intermittent Fasting). Along with eating lighter in the first part of the day, I usually save my carbs until early evening (mostly post-workout).

The Workout:

This workout was focused on Lower Body Strength sets:

- Sumo deadlifts 3x3 superset with power kettle bell swings

- Hip Thrusts 3x5 superset with power kettle bell swings
**I normally use a step for hip thrusts, but that was MIA ... so I resorted to hip bridging...I much prefer hip thrusts though.**

Pull Day

Pull Day

HERE IS MY PULL-DAY OVERVIEW: 

Pull-ups (strict and modified with rings), bent-over barbell rows, face-pulls and inverted rows with the rings & dog curls :P (if you watched to the very end of the video).

I usually do 3-5 sets around the 10-12 rep range - I love doing voluminous back sessions!

Leg Day with Ray!

Leg Day with Ray!

Still getting used to this whole VLOG thing... Derek designed this workout specifically in a way to make my glutes sore. It. Was. Killer.

From Derek:

The split Rach is doing right now is designed specifically for glute and lower body growth and has Rach doing 3-4 workouts per week targeting the glutes and lower body and 2 workouts for upper body. The workout split is based mainly off of information I've gathered from Bret Contreras' blog (here) as well as a few podcasts he's been on. If you're looking for glute growth, Bret Contreras is the man to follow!
