Exercise

Kettlebell swings primarily target the muscles in the posterior chain, including the glutes, hamstrings, and lower back. To effectively strengthen these muscles through this exercise, focus on maintaining proper form, engaging the core, and using a challenging weight. The explosive hip hinge movement in kettlebell swings helps to build strength and power in these muscle groups.

Lateral raises primarily work the deltoid muscles in the shoulders. To effectively target these muscles during a workout routine, focus on using proper form, controlling the movement, and using a weight that challenges but does not compromise your form. Additionally, incorporating variations such as different hand positions or angles can help target the muscles more effectively.

When performing prone leg raises, the muscles primarily worked are the hip flexors, specifically the iliopsoas and rectus femoris muscles. These muscles are responsible for lifting the legs off the ground while lying on your stomach.

Performing side steps with a resistance band works the muscles in the hips, thighs, and glutes.

The V-sit exercise primarily works the abdominal muscles, including the rectus abdominis and obliques, as well as the hip flexors.

The dumbbell around the world exercise primarily works the shoulder muscles, including the deltoids and rotator cuff muscles.

When using a squat rack, the muscles primarily worked are the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and lower back muscles.

When walking or running across bridges, the leg muscles are primarily worked. These include the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, and glutes. These muscles help to propel the body forward and stabilize it while navigating the uneven surface of the bridge.

Arm curls primarily work the biceps muscles in the front of the upper arm.

Around the worlds work primarily targets the deltoid muscles, which are located in the shoulders.

Back squats primarily work the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and lower back muscles.

During under bar pull-ups, the muscles primarily worked are the latissimus dorsi, biceps, and forearms.

The lateral raise exercise primarily works the deltoid muscles in the shoulders.

Different variations of pull-ups work primarily the latissimus dorsi (lats), biceps, and upper back muscles. The specific muscles targeted can vary depending on the grip and form used during the exercise.

The Figure 4 stretch primarily works the gluteus maximus and piriformis muscles in the buttocks.

The barbell squat exercise primarily works the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and lower back muscles.

The bench press primarily works the chest muscles (pectoralis major and minor), as well as the triceps and shoulders.

Prone Y raises work the muscles in the upper back, specifically the trapezius and deltoids.

When performing prone exercises, muscles in the back, shoulders, and core are primarily worked.

During lateral band walks, the muscles primarily worked are the gluteus medius and gluteus minimus, which are located in the buttocks. These muscles help stabilize the hips and thighs during the side-to-side movement of the exercise.

During plank rotation exercises, the core muscles, including the rectus abdominis, obliques, and transverse abdominis, are primarily worked. Additionally, the muscles in the shoulders, chest, and back are also engaged to stabilize the body during the rotation movement.

During reverse dips, the triceps, deltoids, and chest muscles are primarily worked.

During side planks, the muscles primarily worked are the obliques, which are located on the sides of the abdomen. Additionally, the muscles in the shoulders, hips, and core are also engaged to maintain stability and balance.

The around the world shoulder exercise works the deltoid muscles, which are located in the shoulders.

The dumbbell around the world exercise primarily works the shoulder muscles, including the deltoids and rotator cuff muscles.
