3. She Plays With Her Dogs
Briggs has two dogs, whom she features on her Instagram. She shared this video of herself training her pups outside. Briggs captioned the post, “Tonight’s sunset good boy training 🐾It’s easy to get them to sit and wait for a treat one on one … when they’re both there the difficulty is getting them to only want their treat, as like all brothers they usually want whatever the other one has 🤣”
4. She Pushes Herself
Briggs makes sure to push herself when she trains. One way she does so is by using gym machines. Briggs talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post. “Ass to grass 🍑Don’t get me wrong squatting a barbell will always be 🔑But something I’m learning to embrace is using machines to target different ranges, tempos and just generally experiment with to help rebuild leg strength. Taking the feet forward on the smith machine makes the movement mimic the hack squat. I would normally just go to just below parallel but when challenged to get your ass on the floor you have to prove you can right 😝”
5. She Does Hamstring Exercises
Briggs likes to do hamstring exercises. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing them. Briggs captioned it, “Not quite sure what you’d call these … kneeling RDLs??? 3 sets of 6 slow and controlled had me questioning life! Something so seemingly simple really got the hamstrings fired up and had me shaking like crazy 🫨 All this posterior work getting the 🐷strings ready for bulking season with @rogueinvitational only a month away time to make some gainz.”
