Lunges are something I did when I first started working out but once I realized how much stronger I was getting by doing barbell squat I wrote them off. Fast forward about a decade later to several months ago and I throw my back out deadlifting for the first time after years of deadlifting without issue. To rehab (after getting medical care) I tried squatting in all variations and doing light RDLs to keep blood flowing to heal and rebuild strength but saw little to no progress. Then I started doing lunges and immediately picked out where the weakness was that caused the injury in the first place, am finally starting to see progress in recovering and the mobility in my hips is the best it's been in years. Moral of the story: lunges are more important than people realize.
im glad you mentioned lunges. i built most of my leg mass with reverse lunges. I think Ill always prefer them to squats. very easy to modify to emphasize different parts of the leg.

Out of complete curiosity, I wondered how you could create a program exclusively out of these exercises. Rather than doing the thinking myself, I simply asked ChatGPT what it would create, giving it discretion on repeating exercises if necessary and how many days a week to train. Not that I'm saying this is the best way to do it but it seems an interesting start to play around with: Day 1: Strength Training Front squat: 3 sets of 5 reps Deadlift: 3 sets of 5 reps Hanging leg raises: 3 sets of 10 reps Pull-ups: 3 sets of 8 reps Push-ups: 3 sets of 10 reps Day 2: Cardio Running: 30-45 minutes at a moderate pace Day 3: Strength Training Push press: 3 sets of 5 reps Lunges: 3 sets of 10 reps per leg Farmers carries: 3 sets of 50-100 feet Pull-ups: 3 sets of 8 reps Push-ups: 3 sets of 10 reps Day 4: Cardio Running: 30-45 minutes at a moderate pace Day 5: Strength Training Cleans: 3 sets of 5 reps Deadlift: 3 sets of 5 reps Hanging leg raises: 3 sets of 10 reps Pull-ups: 3 sets of 8 reps Push-ups: 3 sets of 10 reps I found it odd that, out of all heavy exercises to repeat, it chooses to repeat deadlift twice, rather than say push press. It does seem reasonable, however, to repeat pull-ups and push-ups three times, although I'd personally set much higher volume, particularly for push-ups, but should generally use discretion based on the lifter. As a first modification, I'd be inclined to remove one of the deadlift days or at least change one of them to a deadlift variation. Also, you could vary the running as Alan suggests, e.g. one day do intervals, the other steady moderate pace.

Mine would be: - Bench - OHP - Stiff Legged Deadlift - Back Squat - Weighted Pull Ups - Barbell Row - Running - Loaded Carries - One arm snatch - French Press (weird one, but they have been incredibly helpful for me) Pretty standard list. I could include some bodyweight stuff and core stuff (gymnastic style stuff was an important base for me, front lever, l-sit, etc) but I decided to focus more on hypertrophy and strength. One arm snatch is my preferred explosive movement. Can be done with a dumbbell, barbell, or kettlebell. I find it is the easiest to do technique wise, and it doesn’t hurt my wrists the way cleans and heavy barbell snatches do. These lists are obviously very personal, so my history of wrist injuries from boxing and mma absolutely effected a few choices. Loaded Carry is a cop out answer as there are so many variations. I like suitcase and bear hug styles best.

Power/Jumping/Plyometric (clean/snatch: power, hang, high pull, etc., stance, hand placement, grip, height of bar/box, ROM, belt, straps, bar/dumbell/implement etc.) 7. Abdominal Training including Torso Rotation/Twisting (i.e., ab roller, leg raises, sit ups, crunches, Russian twist, cable rotations, med ball twist, etc.) 8. Foot Rotation/Pivoting (this can be acheived superfluously through other exercises I've listed, but depending on activities or sports it may be necessary to implement loaded or unloaded pivoting drills) 9. Grip Training (i.e, heavy holds, carries, or more specific hand strengthening implements If grip is lacking for deadlifting and pulling) 10. Neck Training (again, depending on activities or sports that are high contact or combat sports it may be necessary to incorporate specific neck strengthening exercises)

I used to be all-in on basic powerlifting stuff. But lately I've been getting into bodyweight exercises, and reading about how soldiers train by doing tons of push-ups, pull-ups, running, and stuff like that over the course of the day, every day. I was never as interested in aesthetics and prefer to just have a functional physique, and I don't think anyone would deny that soldiers tend to be fit as fuck. But the fact that they are so strong while often focusing on what the fitness world would call "endurance" training is interesting to me. It seems like with most real-life physical work, your endurance and stamina are among the most important physical qualities, and strength comes as a side effect of doing such a high volume of difficult physical work. Soldiers don't get tested on their one-rep max deadlift, or on whether they can bench 300lbs, they get tested on things like how many push-ups they can do with consistent form without stopping, or how many miles they can march while wearing several dozen pounds of gear and carrying a rifle. Herschel Walker used a similar approach, doing hundreds or thousands of reps with basic bodyweight exercises every day (along with athletic activities like football and even dancing). And he was pretty damn muscular on top of being fit.

I was Soldier for 12 years. Almost Noone there is strong nor fit. There are a few good runners but they are lacking strength. The other category were the ones doing strength training. They were much better soldiers overall and were capable soldiers overall. Much better than the runners in general. No soldier got strong from doing pushups. Of course you could build good stamina but still in active duty the guys doing strength training were better overall. I was sadly in the bodyweight training camp back than. I fell for exactly the same BS like you do now. I also thought that soldiers are fit and strong and I wanted to train like a soldier. Wasted 12 years of my youth. Now trying to catch up in my late 30s.

@@kayodoubleu3310 Well I think that kinda goes against a lot of what I've read and heard online and in real life. The common thread in what I've heard is that guys with lots of muscle when they start in the military tend to have poor endurance and end up slimming down at least somewhat, because a big muscular Rambo or Arnold-like physique isn't sustainable. But I haven't gone through anything like that personally so I'm not gonna claim that you're wrong about your own experiences. I should also stress that it's not like I'm doing regular push-ups and nothing else. I followed a calisthenics program a while back that has taught me a lot of bodyweight movements (such as tougher push-up and squat/lunge variations) that are very effective for building strength and muscle, so I'm incorporating those alongside the higher-volume work with basic movements. It's been working for me so far, otherwise I would have stopped or at least drastically altered my approach by now. I've already confirmed for myself that bodyweight work can be very effective for getting bigger and stronger even after you've mastered the basic movements, and now I'm combining that with other stuff to improve my stamina and muscular endurance (which are my two biggest weakpoints). Taking cues from how soldiers train and prepare for fitness tests and whatnot has helped with that so far.

"Sprinting is to squatting what push-ups are to bench press." I like that, and am inclined to agree. I'm 42 and just started strength-training proper a couple months ago, but I come from a martial arts background and have done plenty of running, sprinting, and push-ups. For my first months of strength training, I just focused on Rippltoe's protocol (with the addition of pull-ups and hanging leg raises). When I finally went for a run, I felt super stiff. Since then, I've started implementing more pragmatic "active recovery" strategies. I try to spend some time shadow boxing or hitting a heavy bag to limber up my elbows, hips, and shoulders. Running has been the best, though. I go for shortish runs...like 2 miles...starting at around a 9 minute pace. When I'm about 1/4 mile from the end, I'll start lengthening my stride slowly but intentionally. I try to finish the last 50 meters or so with an all out sprint. With this strategy, I can feel everything losening up. I can also feel how my sprinting capacity has improved from the strength training. They're very complimentary exercises. I was a mad fast sprinter in my youth and, while I'm certainly not as fast now as I was then, I'm starting to really enjoy that feeling of putting the petal to medal on that last stretch of my runs. Makes me wonder how fast I could've been if I had applied some proper strength training in my youth.

Legit list, but I think running is really over-rated and most people's poor form and running on cement leads to banged up bodies.

I'm glad you listed enjoyment. The best exercise is the one you WILL DO and will do LONG TERM. By the way, what are your thoughts on the clean and press? I like it because its one of the most comprehensive and i find it fun. Distance running is my primary fitness activity, and I'm recently retired from the Army so I'm down with pushups and running. I'm glad you included them. I'm glad you said they were foundation which is what I think I tell people. I'm also glad you included farmers carry which I came to too late in life.

ya know I realized from your comment that the only two things I did to achieve any level of fitness was RUNNING & PUSH UPS. For 7 years I have done long distance, and it enabled me to complete two marathons. I need to go back to the training like that, but it wore out my tibialis tendon. Forget all the fancy gym equipment... run and do push ups, even add some pull ups to that because it wasn't until later that I got my captain's chair to do pull ups on. You sir, doled out sage advice. Resonates with me Edit: I was fat and overweight so running was my solution. Now, I'm not... the marathon goal gives you something to strive towards

This is a pretty solid list, kinda surprised me as someone who isnt a frequent viewer
Solid list, always been a front squat fan too, they were all I could really do for a couple years on my home weight set as I didn't have stands, so had to learn to clean too and do more ohp and push press and push-ups than bench stuff, although I do love a bit of bench and back squat etc..do it all I guess :)

Cleans are sooo under rated. Like you, I picked them up training for football when I first started lifting. I’ve taken that lift into my kickboxing training. I know I’m powerful because of it.
