Strength Exercises
Bench Press
The bench press is one of the most important upper-body exercises in your exercise routine. It's not only crucial for developing upper-body muscles, but also an exceptional strength builder. Many people believe that the bench press is solely a chest exercise, but it also involves your triceps, shoulders, back, and even your glutes. It's a complex movement that can lead to disastrous results if not executed properly.
Deadlift
The deadlift is a highly effective compound exercise that engages both your lower and upper body. Compound exercises involve multiple joints and larger muscle groups, making them ideal for building strength and maximizing workout efficiency. Incorporating compound movements like deadlifts, squats, and rows into your workout routine can help you achieve better results in less time.
Squat
A squat is a compound strength exercise that involves lowering your hips from a standing position and then standing back up. As you descend, your hip and knee joints flex, while your ankle joint dorsiflexes. When standing up, the hip and knee joints extend, and the ankle joint plantarflexes.
