I use the big 5 lifts ( deadlift, squat, bench, shoulder press, pull-up) as a full body workout. 3 days a week. I just rotate deadlift one day and squat one day but everything else I keep the same. I’ve seen the best results of my life. Been doing it for 3 months. I’ve never been this strong and seen my body respond this way. This workout routine is perfect for me. I plan on continuing to do it. It’s simple and sustainable.

You still should have some sort of row or pull up/ pull down or chin ups for back as assistants lifts . Also it’s just no fun without some direct arm work so throw some curls in with any tricep extension or push down. So make it the big five or six lifts with some arm work and I feel like that might even be pretty close to what might be considered optimal for most gym goers

Yes you can only do those exercises. You can go fewer. You can do squats or deadlifts. You can do only deadlifts and bench. Or pull-ups and squats. When doing compound movements you’re muscles don’t work in isolation. Pressing works the back. Pulling works the chest. Trainers overcomplicate training because they are obsessed with it. I do push pull legs because I like working out every day. Chest dips and lateral raises Pull-ups and tricep press Sumo deads Chest dips and lateral raises Pull-ups and tricep press High bar back squat Rest or repeat The only reason I squat is that it’s easier to recover from that deadlifts and the variety is nice. Both moves hit the quads, hamstrings and glutes. You could do only one or the other. Triceps and shoulders need direct training if you’re trying improve the ascetics of those areas. Biceps don’t. Do calves on leg day if you want. It’s purely a vanity muscle. Overhead pressing and bent rowing are great if you want to end up injured. If all you did was deadlift or squat you’d be strong and look pretty dam good. Gym bros have body dysmorphia. Don’t idolize them.

That's VERY close to what Starting Strength does with their Novice Linear Progression. 3 sets of 5 on everything except deadlifts which uses 1 set of 5. Alternating ABA and BAB type of scheduling, always squatting, alternating OHP and deadlift, alternating deadlift and cleans. Simple and effective. I followed their NLP for close to a year and made SIGNIFICANT progress. By no means is it all clean and perfect, but my squat is up to 315 and deadlift is at 345. I've hit the wall on my presses but I'm starting to make progress again with microloading. I thought it was goofy at first, but when you consider that one day you struggle with 135 but still complete it, add half a pound and still struggle, but complete it, and continue that pattern for a few weeks and no longer struggle at 135, something MUST be going right somewhere.

Everyone should START here. I like what mark Rippetoe said. “You should work on your weaknesses, and if your a beginner you have two weaknesses: You’re too weak and your form sucks.” Do this for a year or year and a half and maybe play a little sports here and there, casually, and it will set you up for a long time. It’s like using a paint roller before you start using a small brush for the trim. Get the big easy gains first. Then chase the finer points when you have experience. I recommend it to every beginner. Or anyone who is making shit progress.

If you’re not then you need to increase intensity and or volume for that lift.

My theory is that if you build a little bit of everything into your programming, you'll be less prone to injury. That is one of the main reasons I train, second only to the fact that it feels good. That means working through a full range of motion on compounds and isolation movements with unilateral components, concentrics/eccentrics, iso, plyo, calisthenics, and breaking the sagittal plane when you can. And back it all up with good cardiovascular health and diet.

I apply many of the principles of starting strength to my hypertrophy regime but in a much more tailored way to my particular response to training with much much higher volumes.

Bro the formula to getting in shape is easy. Follow the jail routine. We had weights but only used them some times. Most dudes used Callies to get jacked. I was in there with people we didn't have proteinsl shakes pre work out or nothing from out here. We ate oatmeal, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, rice, Mackerel, tuna, Chilli meals and chicken breast or summer sausage. We slept around 12 or 1-4 or 3. Wake up- work out 7 to 10 or 11 500 push up and pulls. After afternoon lock down or sleep We go out 500 push ups dips and pull-ups each We lock down again until 5pm Come out Do another 500 push ups pulls and dips or sqauts everyday until 9 then eat a hefty meal and sleep. The push ups were never the same the were always done 5o targets different parts of the upper body. So the push-ups we did in the morning are different from the pushups we do later in the evening ot afternoon. Same with pull-ups When you become used to the count you increase the numbers of reps So instead of 500 do 700. Everyday with only two days off. These dudes i was with in there I wish i could find men this determined and dedicated to working out. The way they push each other and hold each other accountable is unlike anything i seen before. I looked the best i have ever looked in my life back then. Trying get back on it now at 34 not as easy. The push ups and pulls and dips only kept us in a mode where you could still throw a punch or move like a boxer. Where as all these guys on weights cant move because their too tight. Because we have work and all that there's no way we could dedicate all this time to exercise like inmates but trust me do what they do and you'll see things change. Dips pull ups different variations of pushups and Tyson sqauts everyday. Every set of pushup done in sets of 100 each or 80. Hanging leg raises on the pull up bar and sits up are also essential. In jail you see almost all the men have some kind of muscular physique. Not the same as going to the gym where only a small amount of the men working out are ripped or jacked. I think it's because that survival mode always but outside is just as dangerous as jail. It's just out here we have more distractions. So working out is not easy. I was only 18 and the smallest guy in the room but I could like 110 pound dumbbells on shoulder military press. Although I'm bigger now i cant lift the same weight i did before. So i was actually stronger when i was around 160. Now im 200.

Dude, you make excellent points & even the gentlemen in the video have done a video about how prisoners get so big. I’ve realized with time that weights aren’t everything. There are guys that just do calisthenics/bodyweight and still build impressive physiques. Wes Watson mentions the very same things you wrote in your comment. Peanut butter (awesome protein & fat source), tuna, bread, oatmeal, rice etc. are sufficient for building muscle and the 3 main bodyweight exercises that never let me down are push-ups, pull-ups and dips. The only reason why I go to the gym nowadays is because I don’t have a pull-up bar at home and tbh it does feel good to interact and learn from other people. Weights are good but not always necessary. Obviously everyone is different so to each their own. And another huge advantage that most prisoners have is sleep. Sleep = recovery and recovery = muscle growth 💪💪

For what concerning myself, training every day, it's part of my, daily, routine. I use, only, complex movement, as, Squats, Hints, Bench presses, Bended Rows, Military Press and Stand Rows.

All right, guys. I would like to start gyming. I am twenty-eight kilometers from the nearest gym. I have a barbell; I would like to get the most out of working out three times a week. Does anyone have any suggestions? Or a KZitem channel recomendation?

The big 4 are competition lifts, not body building lifts. You won’t have lats, rhomboids, calves, medial head of the shoulder, long head of the triceps, amongst others.

I've had issue with tendons on several isolation exercises so I decided to move away from them for timebeing. Does only doing Major compound exercises sound like a good game plan? ie. Bench, Shoulder Press, Rows and Legs. TIA for your guidance.. Also, I am 2 seconds away from 50 and mostly lifting for strength and whatever hypertrophy comes from that mindset.

Replace bench press with pull ups. Do animal flow movements twice a week, curls, and go hiking.

Why shoulder press and not a pulldown.. I feel like just swapping shoulder press for underhand lat pulldown then it would be sufficient. But without that swap I feel major muscles are lacking

Eventually a heavier row like Barbell rows will help do being added in along with chin-ups

You’re not doing one single exercise(horizontal /vertical pull) where your lats are the primary.

When we are talking abou the big lifts are we including their variations as well? Let alone benchpress has so many variations like close grip, paused, incline, decline, floor -, spoto-, larsen-press etc.

I do this and its the first time going to the gym is not that boring and im able to stick to a routine adding weights for more than a year. I see the others at the gym and they rarely do one of this compounds with the exception of bench press.

The bench press needs to be replaced with the pull up/chin up when talking about the big 4.

You can build a whole program based on those. That's all I'm doing if I return to barbell I do kettlebells but I would seriously have those and add bodyweight stuff with kettlebells program it well and that's it if you don't want to bodybuild then that's your best bet.

I think a row is more important in a big 4 than a overhead press.

Which type of row?

@@MrGlostuber I would say a chest supported row since deadlift hit's the erector spinae and lower back well enough.
